Kim Soo Hyun–Kim Sae Ron controversy sparks over 10 police investigations; here's what we know
The scandal involving Kim Soo Hyun and the late actress Kim Sae Ron's alleged relationship during her minor years shows no signs of fading. Since the controversy erupted in February 2025, it has sparked numerous accusations, conspiracy theories, public backlash, and even shifts in careers. Yet, many believe what's been revealed so far is just the surface of a much larger issue.
Currently, South Korean police authorities are investigating 10 legal cases linked to Kim Sae Ron, as per Edaily. Actor Kim Soo Hyun is also under scrutiny, suspected of having a relationship with Kim Sae Ron when she was underage.
On May 19, the Seoul Metropolitan Police Agency announced in a press briefing that seven of these cases are being handled by the Gangnam Police Station, while the remaining three fall under the jurisdiction of the Seodaemun Police Station.
According to Edaily, Kim Soo Hyun has filed seven legal complaints, while representatives of Kim Sae Ron have submitted three. Among these accusations, a significant complaint comes from Kim Sae Ron's bereaved family.
They have accused Kim Soo Hyun of violating the Child Welfare Act and have presented evidence, including audio recordings, some of which were released in cooperation with the YouTube channel Garo Sero Institute, also known as Ga Se Yeon.
In response, Kim Soo Hyun has filed a counter-complaint against Garosero, accusing the platform of defamation and stalking. His legal team has also alleged that the audio recordings shared online were altered using artificial intelligence.
Additionally, Bu Ji Seok, the lawyer representing the bereaved family, is facing criticism after being reported to the National Human Rights Commission of Korea for allegedly giving misleading legal advice.
The case remains ongoing, with Kim Sea Ron 's family and Kim Soo Hyun caught in an increasingly complex mix of legal battles and public disputes. Authorities have confirmed that they are carefully examining all allegations and evidence submitted.

How to rewind time and pull off tricks in Mario Kart World?
(Image via YouTube/Nintendo UK) Mario Kart World has introduced some fresh ways to shave some seconds off the lap times, but only if you know how to exploit them. The two key mechanics separate the casual racers from the champions—the rewind feature to perfect the tricky sections and mid-air tricks for the explosive speed boosts. Neither might be obvious at first glance, but they can both dramatically alter the racing strategy. Here is how you can leverage them like a pro. How to pull off mid-air tricks in Mario Kart World? Pull off mid-air tricks in Mario Kart World to add up to the stacked boost (Image via YouTube/Nintendo UK) Mario Kart World Tricks are not just flashy. They are the player's ticket to maintain momentum. Launch off either the ramp or even the unlucky Toad, and then tap on R mid-air for a spin, flip, or strike the character-specific pose. The key is to spam the button. Unlike the past games, in Mario Kart World, you can chain multiple tricks in a single jump. Each of them adds up to the stacked Mario Kart World speed boosts that gets activated on landing. Direction inputs help you tweak the style. Hold Left/Right for the spin or Up/Down for a flip. If you choose not to hold down either input, the character will perform animation unique to them. Also, there is no penalty for overdoing the tricks. So, mash R ruthlessly. Feather items can extend the airtime and offer you more opportunities to rack up the boosts. Just remember, the tiny hops (like from the bumps) will not trigger the tricks. You need some proper air. How to rewind in Mario Kart World ? How YOU can use REWIND in Mario Kart World #mariokartworld #news If you screw up the drift or miss any shortcut, just hold Down on D-Pad and Rewind. But remember, it's possible only in the Solo Modes. But this is not your get-out-of-jail completely free card. The race will continue around you. So, use the rewind strategy strategically. Rewind will not dodge the blue shells or undo the actions of rivals. It lets players retry the tight corners or cover a hidden path until it becomes muscle memory. Rewind in Mario Kart World is supported in solo modes (Image via Nintendo) Use the rewinds to, Salvage the botched landings after the tricks. Memorize some obstacle patterns. Practice the shortcuts without restarting. Consider Rewind as your training tool. Perfecting the turn or nailing the risky jumps matters more than salvaging the botched lap. The online races disable it. So, practice it offline before you take the skills to a multiplayer (not rewind) game and have a great game.
