Lee Jin Ho picked one specific photo, the one where Soo Hyun is seen wearing a black cap while both he and Sae Ron are wearing the same kind of red-and-black puffer jackets. The YouTuber claimed that the mirror selfie cannot be from 2016, as it was taken from an iPhone 11, which was only released much later in 2019.

Kim Sae Ron's father asks for 50 million deposit on flat; unable to get refund- Here's why
Amid ongoing controversies regarding Kim Soo Hyun and the late Kim Sae Ron , a new revelation has come to light regarding the actress's life. According to the latest reports, it had been revealed that the actress' father had reached out to her landlord a day after her funeral to collect the deposit she had made on the property; however, he was unable to do so. Deposit made by someone else The 50 million KRW deposit was allegedly paid by someone else and not the actress. Apparently, the deposit had been paid by some executive from an education firm. According to reports from Allkpop, the executive who has not been named, had paid two separate deposits for the actress, one on her property in Nonhyeon-dong and one for her apartment in Seongsu-dong. The actress had earlier lived in Nonhyeon-dong in 2023 and had been living in her property at Seongsu-dong up until her untimely demise.

Both of the parties preferred to pay the deposits themselves rather than lend the money directly to the actress.

In the same report, it was shared that he possibly did not know how Kim Sae Ron secured the house for rent. The landlord was initially taken aback by the bereaved father's request but eventually returned the money to the unnamed person. "Kim Sae Ron never missed a single month's rent even in that difficult situation. I understand that she paid it all while working part-time.' Recent updates about the case In recent news regarding the scandal between Kim Soo Hyun and Kim Sae Ron, the actor has been sued by three agencies so far for damages, modelling fees and penalties.
