According to an exclusive report from Hankook Ilbo on October 21, Kim Sae-ron was filming a movie at Tapgol Park in Jongno-gu, Seoul.
With long hair and wearing a white dress, Kim Sae-ron would have been in a good mood during filming. His co-star is assumed to be a debut actor.
The report cites film industry insiders, revealing that the film is a low-budget musical film directed by Shin Jae-ho.
Director Shin Jae-ho, who entered the film industry as the original creator of the film “Ditto” starring Yoo Ji-tae and Kim Ha-neul, made his directorial debut in 2004 with “100 Days with Mr. Arrogant” starring Ha Ji -won. He has since directed films such as “Days of Wrath”, “Duel: Final Round”, “Untouchable Lawman” and “In Dreams”.
A project source confirmed “It is true that Kim Sae-ron will appear in the film, but we cannot reveal further details“, adopting a cautious attitude.
Kim Sae-ron first gained attention as a child actress thanks to her impressive performances in films such as “A Brand New Life” and “The Man from Nowhere,” earning her the nickname “genius child actress.” He has actively worked in various dramas, films and variety shows. However, his career came to a halt after causing a public controversy with a drunk driving accident in 2022.
In May, she attempted to return as an actress through the comedy “Dongchimi” after a two-year hiatus, but ultimately withdrew due to overwhelming negative public opinion. There were also rumors that he worked at a bar in Seongsu-dong, Seoul.
In March, she shocked the public by posting a selfie with actor Kim Soo-hyun on her Instagram. The photo showed the two with their faces tightly pressed together in an intimate pose.
At the time, Kim Soo-hyun enjoyed widespread popularity for her role in the tvN drama series “Queen of Tears,” which only intensified the controversy. Although Kim Sae-ron quickly deleted the photo, she remained silent about why she posted it. Through a news outlet, he said: “I’ve thought about it a lot, but I think saying nothing would be more helpful.”
In 2022, Kim Sae-ron was involved in a drunk driving accident in Cheongdam-dong, Gangnam-gu, Seoul, where she crashed into several structures including transformers, guard rails, and street trees. This caused temporary power outages in nearby shops and streetlights, disturbing local residents.
Kim Sae-ron faced further criticism for refusing a breathalyzer test and instead requesting a blood test from police. The test revealed that his blood alcohol level was around 0.2%, a level high enough to warrant canceling his license. In court she was fined KRW 20 million.
