The family of the late Kim Sae Ron has filed a lawsuit against actor Kim Soohyeon for violating the Child Welfare Act and filing a false accusation.

The YouTube channel "Carocero Institute" and the family of the late Kim Sae Ron revealed recordings of the deceased while she was alive and have filed a lawsuit against actor Kim Soohyeon.
On the 7th, the Carocello Institute held a press conference with the family of the late Kim Sae Ron regarding the actor Kim Soo Hyeon.
Attorney Ji Seok and Kim Sae Woo, president of the Carosello Institute, participated in the hearing. Kim Sae Woo said, "One month before the death of the late Kim Sae Ron, an informant A in New Jersey passed away.
We are releasing the details of many criminal cases recorded with the consent of the individual. It is so shocking and revealing. The recording was made on January 10th, Eastern Time. A came to the country from Korea and China on May 1st.
He was attacked by two suspicious people and stabbed nine times around the neck. Mr. A's family feared the situation would escalate further and pleaded for some details to be made public, leading to a press conference. It was clearly a murder.
"It was an instigation case," he said. He continued, "The crime was committed by a Korean and a Chinese of Korean descent on April 30. It was clearly a planned crime. The Federal Bureau of Investigation is investigating. Only a portion of the hour and a half recording was released.
On January 10, 2025, at a cafe in New Jersey, the late Kim Sae Ron told A about her relationship with Kim Soohyeon.
In the first recording, the late Kim Sae Ron said, "I really want to ask you to protect me because I really believe in you.
I dated Soohyeon. You might call me crazy, but we dated from middle school and broke up when we entered college. We dated from underage and broke up when we entered college. Soohyeon
"The gold medalists are really scary and will do anything," Kim Sae-wi said. "There are many other shocking things besides this. In addition, she was dating the late Kim Sae Ron.
"However, bragging about having sexual relations with other actresses or idols, or insulting them by saying they have an odor, are also clear crimes."
In the second recording, the late Kim Sae Ron said, "I feel like I'm going crazy in Korea. Frankly, there's nothing I can do right now. I don't know what to do."
I try to start anything seriously, but whenever I try to do something, it gets reported on YouTube or in articles in a weird way. People who don't know me well say things like, "
"They treated me like a weirdo, saying I was just putting on a show and it was all staged," she confessed, appearing to hyperventilate. She continued, "I have to work because I need to earn money, but they thought I could work anywhere.
I would be really enthusiastic about it, but instead, they made me feel weird. I'm not on TV, and I have to earn money to live. They don't even know me, but they write articles about me.
What's really strange is that Lee JINHO (a reporter former member and YouTuber) calls me even after I change my number. How on earth does he know? If Lee JINHO says it once, it will be recorded.
"I was shocked to see people spreading information without checking," he said. "I looked into Lee Jinho and SBS reporter Kang Kyung-yoon and found out that they were very close.
If JINHO posts it on YouTube, reporter Kang Kyung-yoon will write an article about it. It was my mistake that caused the accident, and I am the one who is dealing with the pain," he said, before launching into abusive language.
CEO Kim Sae-wi said, "I have raised the issue with YouTube Korea and YouTube headquarters. They are continuing to keep Lee Jinho's channel alive, which is causing pain to the late Kim Sae Ron and her family.
Lee Jinho said, "The reason I aired the show until now was to help the late Kim Sae Ron," but why did he keep it private and hide it?
The third recording was a phone call between Lee JINHO and Mr. A. Lee JINHO told Mr. A, "I have nothing to do with the gold medalist.
The reporter said, "I can communicate well with you. I'm not taking Kim Soohyeon's side." A said, "Didn't you say you'd give me 1 billion won if I recorded something the other day? What's wrong?
Is it really that expensive? There's no trust between us," Lee Jinho retorted. "Please help me. If I get a call from the 'Carocero Laboratory', I will never believe it."
Kim Sae-wi released a recording of a threat made by a person connected to lawyer Go Sang-rok against Mr. A. The person in question, Mr. B, said, "Someone from our side is now heading to America. The deceased child (the late Kim
It seems that Mr. Theron) had confided in his teacher. If there is something on his mind, please tell me. He continued, "What gives me goosebumps is that three days after this call, on the way to work, I was in the parking lot.
"When he got off the train, he was stabbed nine times in the neck alone. Fortunately, the two were arrested by the police, but they arrived on Friday night," he said, releasing photos of Mr. A's injuries on his hands and shoulders.
Mr. A's wife conveyed her feelings through a voice message. His wife, Ms. C, said, "I am not Korean. The reason I am speaking to the Korean people is that my husband is Korean and he suffered a terrible experience.
"For months we were terrified. We received strange phone calls, threats, they knew our address, our daughter's name, everything. The night my husband was attacked, everything changed and I thought I would break down," she said.
She continued, "My husband's cell phone had a recording of the late Kim Sae Ron's voice. I realized that what we had was not just a recording. People try to bury it.
This case is under active investigation in the United States, and some of the suspects are Korean. Since the investigation is still ongoing, I cannot give specific details. Once a conclusion is reached, we will clarify the truth.
I would like to say this directly to the mother of the deceased. As a woman, I share your pain and am with you. The silence left by your son should be remembered as a strength. Won Bin
"I'm also grateful to the Seoul Metropolitan Police Agency for their kindness. They were quiet. Their humanity meant more to us than we could have imagined," Kim said.
"We have filed a complaint against Kim Soohyeon with the Seoul Metropolitan Police Department today. The case has been assigned to the investigation department and has been filed under the Child Welfare Act and false accusation charges," said lawyer Boo Ji-seok.
