Actor Kim Soo Hyun has shared an update after six months since his last appearance in March. According to reports, he uses hiking to cope with stress and find peace.
On September 30, reports emerged about letters written by Kim while he was in military service. More than 150 letters were released, presented as personal records of his life. According to his side, the letters are not evidence of his involvement with the late actress Kim Sae Ron.
Kim's legal team has strongly denied the allegation that he had an affair with Kim Sae Ron when she was a minor. They insist that it is difficult to prove the absence of such an affair, but as a public figure, he continues to clarify.
The issue began in May when an audio recording was leaked in which Kim Sae Ron allegedly admitted to having a relationship with Kim since high school. Her agency called it fake and created by AI technology.
Kim's lawyer added that the photos presented by the family were taken between 2019 and 2020—when Kim Sae Ron was of legal age. There are no photos that prove a relationship when she was a minor.
For now, Kim Soo Hyun is choosing to stay out of the public eye while focusing on legal steps and finding peace in nature.
