This article is part of our coverage of Kim Soo Hyun And Kim Sae Ron's Relationship. You can read more and view the entire timeline here.
According to Money Today’s coverage, it was revealed that the late Kim Sae Ron dated a famous idol member “A” around 2018.
Although the bereaved family revealed that the deceased dated actor Kim Soo Hyun from 2015 to 2021, some are pointing out that this overlaps with the period she met another man.
It is believed that Kim Sae Ron and “A” broke up briefly in 2019 but reunited in early to mid-2022. This was when Kim Sae Ron was suffering from her drunk driving incident. It is said that “A” lent a large sum of money to Kim Sae Ron as she struggled financially.
Kim Sae Ron did not hide her relationship, introducing him to her acquaintances as her boyfriend. Although they broke up in 2023, they reportedly kept in touch until last year.
Kim Sae Ron continued to meet with ‘A’ as a friend even after breaking up. We are only bringing this up to investigate the timing of her relationship with Kim Soo Hyun. We do not want to dig up his personal information indiscriminately.

Some rumors stated that one of her ex-lovers was part of a famous idol group with seven members, but this has been found to be untrue.
Kim Sae Ron’s side claimed through Garo Sero Research Institute’s YouTube channel that she dated Kim Soo Hyun from late 2015, when she was in middle school, until July 2021. Text messages that Kim Sae Ron is believed to have sent to an acquaintance while alive proved this.
However, this claim contains errors different from the facts. Kim Sae Ron allegedly dated singer WOODZ from 2021 to 2022, including “A,” whom she met in 2019. It is also known that she had different boyfriends in 2016 and 2018. Kim Soo Hyun dated an idol-turned-actress for three years from 2016 to 2019, not Kim Sae Ron.
