Actress Seo Yoo-jung expressed anger over the news of the late Kim Sae-ron.
On the 18th, Seo Yoo-jung wrote on her SNS, "Unnecessary articles and edited videos of malicious comments. After completely annihilating emotions, holding onto them until they are tattered, and then having to face such news, the attitude of becoming indifferent is troubling. Is it not conscience-pricking to play the media in such a way and to earn a living by stimulating evil psychology?"
She continued, "Every time an incident occurs, public figures are subjected to witch hunts and malicious comments through edited clips, and this is used for promotion. Please stop it now." She added, "There are many people still writhing in pain. Let us pay a little more attention to those around us and embrace them warmly. I hope that those who struggled to become stars on this earth will be happy as stars that never fall in the sky. You have endured a lot." referring to the late Kim Sae-ron.
According to the Seongdong Police Station in Seoul, Kim Sae-ron was found dead at her home in Seongdong-gu at 4:54 PM on the 16th. It is reported that a friend who had made plans to meet her visited her home and discovered her, subsequently notifying the police. No suicide note was found. She was 25 years old.
Kim Sae-ron debuted as a baby model in the magazine 'Anfang' in 2001 and began her acting career with the film 'Traveler' in 2009. She gained recognition for her role in the movie 'The Man from Nowhere' alongside actor Won Bin in 2010, and appeared in various works such as 'Neighbors', 'Manhole', 'Dohee-ya', 'Snowy Road', and 'Local People'.
While actively working, Kim Sae-ron faced a crisis due to a drunk driving incident in 2022. Afterward, she aimed for a comeback as an actress through the play 'Dongchimi' after two years, but faced difficulties due to negative public opinion. The film 'Guitar Man', which she completed filming last year, became her last work.
The deceased's funeral was set up in Room 22 of the Asan Medical Center in Seoul. The funeral will be held at 6:20 AM on the 19th, and the burial site is the Unification Road Memorial Park.
Below is the full text of Seo Yoo-jung's SNS post
I sincerely wish for the deceased's soul to rest in peace.
No more unnecessary articles and edited videos of malicious comments.
After completely annihilating emotions,
holding onto them until they are tattered,
and then having to face such news,
the attitude of becoming indifferent
is troubling.
Is it not conscience-pricking to play the media in such a way
and to earn a living by stimulating evil psychology?
Every time an incident occurs,
public figures are subjected to witch hunts and malicious comments through edited clips, and this is used for promotion...
Please stop it now.
I never thought that those who have passed away would end up like this.
You could be one, and I could be one too.
So please refrain from writing malicious gossip.
And media, please stop it.
The world is going to ruin.
There are many people still writhing in pain. Let us pay a little more attention to those around us and embrace them warmly.
Ask about their well-being...
It was hard to become a star on this earth,
in the sky, may you be happy as a star that never falls.
You have endured a lot...
