Family reveals how Kim Soohyun seduced Kim Saeron

Kim Sei: So Kim Saeron didn't initially like Kim Soohyun, but he kept approaching her. Is that what she told her parents?

Kim Saeron's aunt: Yes, that's what she told them. Saeron warned her, 'Don't mess with a kid.' So, what did Kim Soohyun say to make her date him? He said, 'I really care about you. I'm being serious.' That's what he said to such a young girl.

Kim Sei: Oh Gosh. Kim Saeron must've been scared. He was a grown adult, he was almost 30. By then, he might've been over 30 then. It must've been scary for her to have a man in his 30s say that he loves her. 

Kim Saeron's aunt: Of course. It's not like she didn't realize that he was old. He told her, 'Would someone at my age play around with you? Don't joke around.' That's what he said. We found out about it because Saeron told us later. He said he was serious about her. He promised her that he'd take care of everything when she joined his company because he truly loved her. He said he would take full responsibility!!

Kim Sei: She was already under such a good company, YG... Oh Gosh. 

Kim Saeron's aunt: She looked elsewhere too. She had many offers. But they were already dating by then. When he was starting the company, tey even talked about getting married. He asked her to get married.

Comment #267: It's not that her parents didn't stop her.
They didn't know about their relationship when she was in middle school. They only found out about it later when she was in high school. They strongly opposed the relationship, but it was already difficult for her to listen to her parents because she was already attached to him. 

Kim Sei: There were people saying, 'Shouldn't her family stop her if she was already dating Kim Soohyun since middle school? What was her family doing?' But you didn't know about the relationship when she was in middle school, right?

Kim Saeron's aunt: No, we didn't know because celebrities meet on set and contact each other, so we didn't think much of it. They kept in touch and he even sent her pictures from the military. We thought that was weird and that was how we found out about their relationship. We strongly opposed it.

Kim Sei: By the time he went to the military, she was probably already in high school, not middle school.

Kim Saeron's aunt: Yes, she was in high school. People ask why her parents didn't stop her. Oh Gosh... Of course, they opposed it. Who would say, 'Good job! Kim Soohyun is successful and he has a lot of money!' Who would say that? He's 10 years older than her. There's a huge age gap. With such a huge age gap, who has a brighter future?

-Crazy... Are the people blaming her family here in their right minds?

-That's classic gaslighting.

-Sigh... This is so frustrating... He's a trash.

-Grooming is a crime.

-So, her parents knew about it too... They knew their daughter was involved with him since she was a minor... Both her parents and Kim Soohyun are out of their minds, really.

-I don't think the people who are blaming her family here are reading the same post as me... F*ck.

-Instead of blaming her parents, why don't you curse out the 30-year-old man who seduced a minor?

-Pedophile... Ew...

-Did her parents even think that they were dating?? They probably thought they were just senior-junior colleagues...

-No matter what, her parents are also at fault. Of course, the criminal should be the one who gets the most criticism, but I think her parents are no better.

-If Saeron hadn’t been involved with this person and had received support from a professional company, her future could have been so bright...

-Why are the public judging the parents' mistakes? They have already lost their daughter...

-I feel like I’m going to throw up...

-Seriously, though... I wonder how Kim Soohyun's parents raised him?

-She probably thought he'd marry her once she became an adultㅠㅠ It must've been hard for her to stay rational...
