(31 Mar 2025) ASSOCIATED PRESS Seoul, - 31 March 2025 1. South Korean actor Kim Soo-hyun walking into the presser and bowing to media 2. Mid of Kim (L-R) with his lawyer 3. Wide of Kim and lawyer 4. SOUNDBITE (Korean) Kim Soo-hyun, actor: “First, I apologize. It seems that too many people are suffering because of me alone. And I feel only sorrow that the deceased also seems unable to rest peacefully. I consider myself a coward. I think I was always only desperate to protect what I had.” 5. SOUNDBITE (Korean), Kim Soo-hyun, actor - on his reason for initially denying the relationship with Kim Sae-ron:  “Even when (the drama) 'Queen of Tears' was airing, there were so many things I had to protect as the lead actor. What would happen if I acknowledged my relationship with someone I dated a few years ago? What would happen to the actors performing with me? All the staff members staying up all night on set, the production company that has staked everything on this work, and all the people at our company? Whenever the choices of Kim Soo-hyun the human and Kim Soo-hyun the star diverged, I always seemed to make choices as Kim Soo-hyun the star." 6. SOUNDBITE (Korean, Kim Soo-hyun, actor - on whether he had an underage relationship with Kim Sae-ron "I will address the part that everyone is most curious about. I did not date the deceased when she was a minor. And it is also not true that the deceased made a tragic choice because of my avoidance (of her), or because my agency pressured her about debt (she owed to the agency).” 7. Wide of presser with screen 8. SOUNDBITE (Korean) Kim Soo-hyun, actor - on his relationship with Kim Sae-ron "Except for the fact that we were both actors, the deceased and I were ordinary lovers like anyone else. We met with good feelings for each other and then parted ways as time passed. After that, I rarely kept in contact with the deceased. Like most couples, keeping in contact after breaking up was a delicate matter." 9. Wide of presser with screen showing alleged screengrabs of text messages between late Kim Sae-ron and Kim Soo-hyun 10. SOUNDBITE (Korean) Kim Soo-hyun, actor - on how he feels about statements from late Kim Sae-ron's family  "The deceased's family is claiming that I drove the deceased to death because I was her ex-boyfriend. And they are forcing me to confess to things I did not do. They are saying, 'You toyed with the deceased since she was a minor. You pressured the deceased with money and caused her death. So you are a murderer.'" 11. Wide of presser 12. SOUNDBITE (Korean) Kim Soo-hyun, actor - on discrepancies he sees between text messages released by the deceased's family and ones he received: "The same applies to the KakaoTalk content that the family first made public. This KakaoTalk contains too many incorrect facts to have been written by the deceased. What was claimed to be a photo from 2016 was actually from 2019. Also, if it were the deceased, she couldn't have gotten the age difference between us wrong." 13. Wide of presser with screen 14. SOUNDBITE (Korean) Kim Soo-hyun, actor - on how he arranged a private investigation to prove his innocence "I submitted KakaoTalk conversations I had with acquaintances this year, and the ones from the deceased’s family from 2016 and 2018 to a verification agency that scientifically analyzes statements. As a result, as you can see, the agency concluded that the individuals from 2016 and 2018 are not the same person." 15.
