Kim Soo Hyun holds a press conference concerning recent allegations

Hello, it’s Kim Soo Hyun.

First of all, I apologize.

It seems that so many people suffer because of me, and it breaks my heart that the deceased cannot rest in peace.

I consider myself a coward. I have always seemed concerned to protect what I had. I couldn’t even trust the kindness that was shown to me, and I was always afraid of losing something, of being injured, so I was busy fleeing and denying things. This is why it took me so long to stay here. I thought, what if I had just said everything from the start? If I had done it, the fans who loved me, the staff of the company who worked tirelessly for this press conference to happen, wouldn’t they all have suffered?

Whenever my private life with the deceased was exposed, I said to myself: “Let’s say everything tomorrow. Let’s talk personally and finish this hellish situation.” But each time I hesitated. What impact would my decision have on those around me? What if the decision was doing everything for me and all the others?

It was the same when the deceased published a photo of us together during the broadcast of “Queen of Tears”. Five years ago – and four years before “Queen of Tears” was broadcast – the deceased and I went out with about a year. But at that time, I denied rumors of meetings. I think it is natural to criticize me for this choice. I understand that if you cannot believe what I say now about what happened between the deceased and me. But as it is the only chance that I must speak like that here, I would be so grateful that you listen to my story once.

I became an actor and I received an overwhelming amount of love. Originally, I was not someone who had a lot, but I became someone with so much to protect. Even when “Queen of Tears” was broadcast, there was so much that I had to protect as a main actor. At that time, if I admitted a relationship with someone with whom I came out years ago, what would happen? What would happen to the actors with whom I worked, to all the staff who were all night on the set, to the production company who put everything in play for this project and to our company staff?

Whenever the choices of “Human Kim Soo Hyun” and “Star Kim Soo Hyun” diverged, I think I have always made the choice of “Star Kim Soo Hyun”. So I was really afraid every day. I was afraid of what would happen if everything I chose to protect because I was “Star Kim Soo Hyun” returned to me as poison. I was afraid of everything. But even if I could return when “Queen of Tears” was broadcast, I would make this choice again.

No matter how much I think about it, I don’t think I can make this decision because I like it just to make myself comfortable. I thought it was the responsibility that someone who chose the life of Kim Soo Hyun had to bear. I will accept any criticism if you call this loose or selfish choice. And I apologize to all those who took care of myself.

Even right now, I have a lot of worries. And I am anxious. What kind of consequences will my words have this time? But because I am that kind of person, I thought I had to speak at the end. There were also people who gave me this advice: “Let’s solve this gently. To manage the risk, you should at least show that you accept things to a certain extent. Then, you are dating on people’s interest, and you can prepare for a return later.” If I had listened to these words, maybe my private life with the deceased would not have been exposed to this measure.

I would not have had to receive threats every day in the photos they would download tomorrow, which they would exhibit. And I would not have been humiliated by having photos of my disclosed private life. But I couldn’t do that. I could not agree to be threatened and forced to admit that lies were the truth.

I’m going to talk about the game you are most curious about. I did not go out with the deceased when she was a minor. And it is also not true that the deceased made a tragic choice because of the diversion or because my agency put it pressure on its debt. Aside from the fact that we were both actors, we were both ordinary lovers like everyone else. We have encountered good feelings for each other, and over time, we have broken. After that, we rarely contacted ourselves. Like most couples, we were careful to contact us separately after rupture. We were both of the actors who were known to many people, and when she was in the same agency as me, I knew to a certain extent how she was going, so it was even more.

This is why I could not easily contact her even when she had a driving accident. I heard on the YouTube channel representing the family of the deceased that the CEO of his final agency said that she had trouble because of me at the time of the drunken driving incident. But I know she was going out with someone else at that time. In this situation, I was prudent to contact her. We already lived our own life and I didn’t know what to say. My words may look like apologies. I also wanted to stay silent, it doesn’t matter what the world said.

I always receive a lot of misunderstandings as much as I receive excessive love. Things that are not true also circulate as if they were true. I thought it was also something that I had to endure. But the family of the deceased claims that I led the deceased to his death because I was his ex-friendly friend. They force me to admit the things I have not done. “You have manipulated the deceased since she was a minor. You put pressure on the deceased with money and killed it. You are therefore a murderer. “

First, please listen to this audio. After the family exposed my relationship with the deceased, the YouTube channel which transmits the position of the family published the testimony of the CEO of the late agency of the deceased. In a newly recorded call after the exhibition, this person said that our agency had put pressure on the deceased about their debts by sending a second content certificate concerning the debt relationship with the deceased. But during a call with my agency CEO a year ago, she said something completely different. Please listen to it once.

I learned on this subject thanks to this controversy, but it is the truth about the second content certificate. But I do not know why the CEO of the final agency of the deceased, saying something completely different from the call a year ago. I admit everything I did with it. I think it is essential to take responsibility for everything I need to take responsibility for. But I can’t say that I did something I didn’t do. The audio testimonies that the family claims was recently recorded after the exposure of the incident.

The same goes for the Kakaotalk content that the family initially published. There are too many incorrect facts in this Kakaotalk to say that the deceased wrote it. The photo that would have been 2016 was in fact 2019. In addition, the deceased could not have been mistaken on the age difference between us. In addition, she could not have been mistaken on the name of the agency of which she had been a part for four years and the contract period. And the deceased only worked as an actress in our business. She has never done a casting or visual realization.

Thanks to a recent press conference, the family also published content from Kakaotalk Conversations that I would have exchanged with the deceased. And that YouTube Channel translates me as a pedophile and a minor groomer using the declarations in the 2016 Kakaotalk conversations as proof. However, the person speaking to the deceased in the 2016 Kakaotalk conversation and the 2018 Kakaotalk conversation are different people.

To prove this fact, I submitted the Kakaotalk conversations of 2016 and 2018, which the family submitted and conversations that I shared with my knowledge this year to a verification agency which scientifically analyzes the declarations. Consequently, the agency concluded that people in 2016 and 2018 are not the same person as you can see.

The most painful thing since the start of family exhibition was as follows. When my agency and I release our position on the evidence of the family, a newly recorded testimony is suddenly published. Photos and videos that subtly modify the timing and images of modified Kakaotalk which are not the original are presented as evidence. False testimonies and false evidence continues under the pretext that I was going out with the deceased.

I will accept any criticism of the choices I made. But that does not mean that everything that is not true becomes true. Just as I took verification procedures for Kakaotalk, I will take procedures to verify in depth everything that the family presents as proof through survey agencies. If proof of the family is really true, I ask to submit all the data to the survey agency and to be verified through legal procedures.

Even at the moment, I have people who are only looking at me and whose responsibility I have to assume. I see these people suffering and collapsing every day. I am afraid of what will be exposed and distorted again today to translate myself as a murderer. I do not know what kind of false evidence and false testimonies will defame me and harass the people around me after the end of this press conference.

But if I say that lies are the truth because I cannot overcome coercion, I will betray not only Kim Soo Hyun as a human being, but also all those who have given confidence and love Kim Soo Hyun the star. I will give them pain that will last a lifetime. Even if I am Kim Soo Hyun who lives by wearing a mask as a celebrity, I can’t do that. What I did, I did. I can take all the criticisms for this. But I won’t do what I didn’t do. For all the people who still believe in me, I want to reveal so much. I will not ask you to believe me. I will certainly prove it.
