What is the new update in the Kim Soo Hyun datong controversy?

Did Kim Soo Hyun demand a kiss from Kim Sae Ron?
Kim Sae Ron’s family released the messages as evidence. According to Naver, the family shared screen shots of the messages, which suggested the relationship began while she was still a minor.

The messages also included references to dating arrangements.
Which film Kim Soo Hyun was shooting while dating Kim Sae Ron?
On October 13, several media outlets, including Money Control, reported that the timeframe of these messages coincided with the actor’s filming for the film Real. It was reported that the actor had no time to schedule dates during the long shooting hours.
What did the production staff of film Real comment?
The film’s set staff also released a statement, explaining, “Kim Soo Hyun was unbelievably busy at that time. He was shooting intense action scenes every day, often drenched in water. He’d come home, collapse into bed, and wake up before dawn to head back to the set. There was absolutely no time to wait around for anyone.”
What did Kim Soo Hyun’s lawyer say about his intimate chats?
Kim Soo Hyun and his lawyer denied the authenticity of the text messages. They stated that the messages were fake and that the person depicted in them was not Kim Soo Hyun. Kim Soo-hyun’s team also stated that the victim’s family knows who the real sender was. They stated that the information displayed in the messages is completely misleading and does not mention any actual work or timeline of the actor.
Kim Soo Hyun’s lawyer’s statement
According to them,“There is nothing in the messages that identifies the man as Kim Soo Hyun. In fact, the conversation is suspiciously vague — the man never mentions what he’s doing or where he is. This suggests that Garo Sero Research Institute and Attorney Boo deliberately hid the sender’s actual schedule or activities. The bereaved family knows who the real sender was.”

The controversy has sparked intense debate on social media and among fans. People began speculating about Kim Soo Hyun’s relationship with Kim Se Ron, but the actor and his legal representative have repeatedly clarified that this matter is completely false and that these messages have nothing to do with him.
