On March 31, 2025, actor Kim Soo Hyun broke down in tears while speaking at a press conference about allegations involving his late ex-girlfriend Kim Sae Ron. The family’s claims, amplified by the Garosero Institute channel, had already provoked public curiosity. However, instead of sparking compassion, Kim Soo Hyun’s teary face became a viral meme.

Within hours, users crowned it a “meme fest.” TikTok edits, parody clips, and AI voiceovers turned the controversy into comedy. Many netizens poked fun at his dramatic expressions, dropping lines like “K-diddy is cooked.” However, some users believe that the “meme fest” could overshadow the seriousness of the allegations he was trying to address.
For those unversed, it has been said that Kim Soo-hyun had a relationship with Kim Sae-ron when she was just 15, a claim he denied during the press conference. He insisted that their relationship was typical, despite both being actors. He also denied involvement in Kim Sae Ron’s financial troubles, the 700 million KRW debt from her 2022 DUI case. The memes keep coming. Whether this whirlwind will affect his career or fade away remains to be seen.
