As actor Kim Soo-hyun has been cleared of false allegations and resumed his activities, he has taken legal action against trolls who continue to spread false information about the actor and engage in acts that damage his reputation and personality.

On the 14th, Kim Soo-hyun's agency, Gold Medalist, announced its official stance titled "Notice Regarding Legal Response to the Spread of False Information Concerning Our Artist Kim Soo-hyun."

The agency stated, "We would like to inform you about the spread of false information and acts damaging the reputation and personality of our artist, Kim Soo-hyun. The charges of violating the Child Welfare Act against Mr. Kim Soo-hyun have resulted in a decision not to refer the case for prosecution due to 'no grounds for prosecution.'" It added, "Regarding the false claim that Mr. Kim Soo-hyun dated the deceased during her minor years and the subsequent allegations of violating the Child Welfare Act based on this premise, law enforcement authorities determined that the charges could not be substantiated after investigating relevant materials and factual circumstances, resulting in a decision not to refer the case for prosecution due to 'no grounds for prosecution.' Consequently, it has been confirmed that the series of claims made against Mr. Kim Soo-hyun lack factual or objective basis. This matter is no longer at the stage of a dispute where the truth has not been verified; rather, it is a false fact proven through official investigation results."

The agency continued, "Kim Se-ye, the operator of the media outlet Garosero Research Institute, who was the initial spreader of false information, has been indicted in custody. Kim Se-ye, who first raised and continuously spread false claims regarding Mr. Kim Soo-hyun, had an arrest warrant issued by the court on criminal charges including defamation through the dissemination of false facts under the Information and Communications Network Act, and is currently being tried in custody." It further stated, "Under these circumstances, please clearly recognize that continuing to cite the content claimed by Kim Se-ye or reposting, sharing, or redistributing it as if it were factual constitutes an additional illegal act that endorses the criminal conduct of Kim Se-ye, who has been indicted in custody, and perpetuates and expands the criminal damage resulting from it."

Although legal rulings have determined that all claims made by Kim Se-ye, including allegations that Kim Soo-hyun dated a minor, are false following his indictment in custody along with CEO Ga Se-yeon, the agency has taken action against those who continue to post malicious comments and spread fake news.

The following is the full text of the agency's official statement
