Soo Hyun’s agency had sent Sae Ron a certification of contents, which is basically a document sent for claiming damages or contract termination under Korean law. After going through the document and realising that the agency is asking her to pay a fine of around 700 million Won, which is roughly around Rs 4.1 crore, the deceased tried to initiate contact with Soo Hyun and posted a picture of them together in order to get a response. After no contact, a second certification of content was sent to Sae Ron in which the agency threatened to take legal action over the photo she had posted.
YouTuber Lee Jin Ho allegedly spread false information about the Bloodhounds actor and has been deleting his old videos ever since her passing. The family has requested a cease-and-des regarding all the videos posted Jin Ho.
