The family of the late actress Kim Sae Ron is taking strong legal action against YouTuber A, accusing them of defamation.
According to reports, the family’s legal representative, Attorney Bu Ji Seok from Law Firm Buyu, will officially file a complaint at the Seoul Metropolitan Police Agency on March 17 at 2 PM.
Before submitting the complaint, Attorney Bu will hold a press conference to explain why the family decided to take legal action.
Attorney Bu stated, “After discussions with the family’s representative, we decided to proceed with both the press conference and the complaint submission against YouTuber A on the 17th.”
Kwon Young Chan, the head of the Korea Celebrity Suicide Prevention Association, also spoke on the matter.
“At first, we planned to file the complaint on behalf of the family, but they have bravely chosen to do it themselves. I hope this process helps restore Kim Sae Ron’s honor.”
The late actress’s family previously claimed that Kim Sae Ron had suffered because of YouTuber A’s videos while she was alive and demanded an apology.
In response, YouTuber A recently posted on their channel, saying, “I express my condolences to Kim Sae Ron,” while also insisting, “I never created videos with malicious intent or to defame her.”
All eyes are now on the upcoming press conference, where more details are expected to be revealed.
