Gold Medalist firmly rebuked these allegations, declaring, "The claims of a romantic entanglement between Kim Soo Hyun and Kim Sae Ron at the age of 15 are entirely baseless."

Moreover, the agency refuted accusations of collusion and mishandling purportedly made by the YouTube channel, highlighting that they are evaluating legal action against the dissemination of such misinformation. Gold Medalist condemned the spread of false rumors, considering them a form of cyber harassment that disrespects the memory of the late Kim Sae Ron, who passed away on February 16.

In the midst of these controversies and unfounded accusations, Gold Medalist aims to preserve the integrity of its reputation and uphold the honor of the late Kim Sae Ron amid baseless rumors and cyber exploitation.
