The channel also credited itself for sending BTS to the military.
After GOLD MEDALIST‘s official statement on behalf of actor Kim Soo Hyun was issued—following the late actress Kim Sae Ron‘s aunt blasting him on the Garosero Research Institute YouTube channel, the channel is now threatening to report Kim Soo Hyun for having 𝓈ℯ𝓍 with a minor.
In the “Posts” section of the controversial channel, run by former MBC reporter turned far-right YouTuber Kim Se Ui (or Kim Say), Garosero Research Institute mocked the actor and his management for mentioning “legal action” in the statement and revealed the actor will be charged for his relationship with the late actress when she was a minor. The channel also criticized Kim Soo Hyun for not showing up to Kim Sae Ron’s funeral.
The YouTube channel also brought up BTS, insisting that all of the members went off to enlist after pursuing to sue the channel with no success.
“Kim Soo Hyun must not know who Kim Se Ui from Garosero Research Institute is, LOL. Legal cation, huh? Even the oh-so-great world star BTS once threatened legal action against Garosero. What was the outcome? All of them went off to enslit.
So, what can Kim Soo Hyun do? He’s a mere Hallyu star who’s only popular in China.
Garosero isn’t just any outlet. We uploaded the video using information and interview we received from the bereaved. We dare you to try pulling that ‘legal action’ stunt on the bereaved, too. LOL.” — Garosero Research Institute
“And sometime tomorrow, you can expect a report to be filed against you for the charge of having 𝓈ℯ𝓍 with a minor. Dating an 8th grader?! We sure hope you didn’t actually have 𝓈ℯ𝓍 with her.
From what we’ve heard, someone is definitely filing the report. But don’t you dare coerce or threaten the bereaved. You know what will happen then. Right? A scary man from nowhere might chew you up.
Oh, and by the way, even Won Bin showed up to Kim Sae Ron’s funeral. So why didn’t you? Should’ve had some basic human decency, at the very least.” — Garosero Research Institute
While subscribers commented that Kim Soo Hyun stands no chance against the channel…
- “Why would the bereaved lie, for what reason? This is why people who have nothing to lose are the scariest. I hope the truth comes out and justice gets served.”
- “Everyone threatens legal action these days, but false accusation is a serious crime. Kim Soo Hyun and his management company need to learn what happens when they make the wrong moves, suing the wrong people.”
- “Wait, he didn’t go to her funeral? And yet he had the audacity to say he mourns her loss? Where is his decency?”
- “This scares me… Celebrities are scary people. Kim Soo Hyun looked like a good dude, but man. He’s definitely good at acting.”
- “Enough with the legal action nonsense, LOL. Kim Soo Hyun will only damage his career with lawsuits over this. What is he even trying to prove? That he never dated Kim Sae Ron? What false information is this channel spreading?”
…Koreans at large are debating whether Garosero Research Institute is a reliable source—though, Kim Sae Ron’s aunt did mention that she had no choice but to choose the channel because no other Korean news outlet would lend her the platform to make her voice heard.
- I mean… the late MBC weathercaster’s bereaved family also took their story to Garosero Research Institute because no other news outlet would help them.”
- “I don’t think the aunt chose Garosero because of how controversial of a channel it is. Look at the way news outlets are handling this huge scandal and it’s obvious why the aunt had to bring her story here.”
- “This post is written in such a cringe tone, though…”
- “This whole thing disgusts me.”
- “I mean, the post does sound stupid AF. This is exactly why people don’t trust Garosero.”
- “I hate them.”
That said, Garosero Research Institute is notorious for its involvement in multiple celebrity scandals. Read more about the channel here:
