Won Bin's representatives addressed recent claims involving the late actress Kim Sae Ron and a controversial voice recording on May 9. They clarified that apart from paying respects at the funeral home, Won Bin has no involvement in the matter.

The response stemmed from a press conference held on May 7 by Kim Se Eui and attorney Boo Ji Seok, representing Kim Sae Ron's family. They alleged that a whistleblower known as 'Mr. A' had recorded voice files involving accusations against actor Kim Soo Hyun with the deceased's consent and was later attacked.

Mr. A’s wife released an audio statement confirming the ongoing investigation by U.S. authorities and expressing confidence in revealing the truth. She mentioned Won Bin's respectful attendance at Kim Sae Ron's funeral, appreciating his genuine demeanor.

Won Bin's agency has distanced him from the controversy, highlighting his stance against circulating sensitive issues surrounding the deceased. Lee Jin Ho also responded to AI-manipulated tapes, dismissing them as fabricated.
