Go Sang-rok, the lawyer representing actor Kim Soo-hyun, commented on the investigation status regarding the police's determination that Kim Se-ui's allegations of a past romantic relationship between Kim Soo-hyun and the late Kim Sae-ron during her minor years were false.
Lawyer Go stated on the 21st via his social media that after reviewing the warrant application document released by Kim Se-ui, "the term 'suspect Boo Ji-seok' caught my attention."
He conveyed that it appears the investigation has confirmed suspicions of accomplice liability against Lawyer Boo Ji-seok, who represented the late Kim Sae-ron's family, and that he has been switched to suspect status. He added, "It is extremely rare for a suspect's lawyer to be recognized as an accomplice during the investigation and subsequently switched to suspect status, making this a very shocking development."
The lawyer referenced the joint press conference held by Kim Se-ui and Lawyer Boo Ji-seok in 2025, stating, "Someone other than actor Kim Soo-hyun released KakaoTalk conversations exchanged between the deceased and another person, then made statements definitively claiming these were conversations with actor Kim Soo-hyun. As a result, many members of the public thought, 'Surely a lawyer wouldn't lie?' and came to believe the false information spread by Kim Se-ui and Lawyer Boo Ji-seok as fact."
He further noted that if Lawyer Boo Ji-seok directly participated in spreading false information based on fabricated evidence, he would likely face criminal punishment alongside Kim Se-ui. He concluded, "I will continue to monitor this matter closely."
Meanwhile, according to the arrest warrant application for Kim Se-ui filed by the Seoul Gangnam Police Station, the police determined that Kim Se-ui, knowing that Kim Soo-hyun did not have a romantic relationship with the late Kim Sae-ron during her minor years and that Kim Soo-hyun was not the cause of the deceased's death, repeatedly distributed false information with the intent to defame Kim Soo-hyun.
