Infamous Actress Kim Sae Ron Posts And Deletes Another Controversial Instagram Story

In the latest episode of her social media turmoil, actress Kim Sae Ron briefly shared a post on her Instagram story before quickly taking it down… again. Kim’s confusing action has once again raised eyebrows among netizens.

The post — intriguingly titled “How to Apologize to a Superior” — was accompanied by another post that could be expressing her current emotional distress: “It’s tough. Can you all please stop?” The message is a crucial line originally delivered by Kong Hyo Jin in The Most Ordinary Romance.

Kim Sae Ron’s recent activities on social media have stirred public debate, especially after a controversial photo with fellow actor Kim Soo-hyun surfaced. The image displayed them posing cheek-to-cheek, which set off rumors about a possible romantic link between them. These speculations were promptly dismissed by Kim Soo Hyun’s representatives.

Adding to her challenges, Kim Sae Ron had a short-lived return to the theater scene with the play Dongchimi, where she was set to play Jung Yeon, the younger daughter in the “Filial” team. However, she withdrew from the production just a day after her casting was announced, with the play’s representative attributing her exit to health issues — although the timing suggested it could also involve the negative response from the public.

Kim Sae Ron’s career has been a blend of significant early success and later controversies. Known for her role as a child actress in the 2010 hit film The Man From Nowhere with Won Bin, she has found the transition to adult roles fraught with difficulties. Her legal troubles peaked in May 2022 when she was fined for drunk driving and leaving the scene after crashing into a structure in Seoul’s affluent Gangnam District. Tests showed her blood alcohol content to be 0.2%, more than double the threshold for license revocation in South Korea.
