The hypocrisy is astounding!! For all his wealth, they sure don't know how to do PR!!!
This was obvious the minute it was reported (yesterday) that they (GoldMedalist) hired dozens of lawyers, consultants and fixers organized into three separate damage control teams!
Also BTW in PREVIOUS STATEMENT they Literary said that PHOTO WASN'T HIM!!Now apparantly they're suing over it,…
Every time that they do this (contradict a previous denial), it becomes additional real aka hard evidence in the family's favor should this ever go to trial.
So is the call recording true? Because they aren't denying it but saying leaking private recoridng without permission…
It's true but this could still blowback on GoldMedalist and Lee Jin Ho - How did they get the recordings? Was KSH illegally surveilling his ex-girlfriend years after they broke up? - According to C-netizen sleuths, the audio appears to have been edited, rendering it inadmissible as evidence and subjecting GoldMedalist to charges of fraud

What kind of lawsuit are they going to file against them?
Civil. Not criminal. They don't want this going to trial. A trial means the defense (Garo Sero and KSR's family) would have the right to discovery. And that would give them access to KSH & GoldMedalist's work products (contracts, phone records, emails, internal memos, etc.)
Edit to add: Nope! They filed a criminal lawsuit. I am shocked!
Attorneys for Kim Soo Hyun told the press that they pushed for a civil lawsuit against Garo Sero and Kim Sae Ron's…
KSH didn't do himself or his attorney's plans to sue his victim's family any favors when he gave the reason for not wearing any pants when that photograph was taken. He said, "It's because I wasn't done statutory raping my underage girlfriend!"
it's actually funny he wasn't bothered by the groomer allegations and the him torturing her with debt allegations…
His attorneys probably refused to file any lawsuits against anyone for calling their client a groomer because they know it isn't defamation. So they are taking this route instead.
Golden Medalist suing KSR Family for sharing that Dishwashing Photo Because it"CAUSED KSH SEXUAL EMBARASSMENT??"YET…
It all makes sense now. Soohyun is ashamed of his micropenis! He thought everyone had forgotten about that. His previous scandal didn't get anywhere near as much attention to his embarrassing condition as this one will.
It was revealed today that Kim Soo Hyun's lawyers asked the judge to skip the forensics examination of the photo…
Attorneys for Kim Soo Hyun told the press that they pushed for a civil lawsuit against Garo Sero and Kim Sae Ron's family today, and not a criminal trial because, they say, "The potential jury pool can be split into two camps: Those who believe our client is guilty of grooming and statutory rape, and those who are really, really stupid!"
It was revealed today that Kim Soo Hyun's lawyers asked the judge to skip the forensics examination of the photo…
In other news, Prada executives today have launched a search for their next global ambassador. Reportedly their #1 criteria for selecting this representative is "someone who does not groom and rape children!"
It was revealed today that Kim Soo Hyun's lawyers asked the judge to skip the forensics examination of the photo evidence and proceed directly to trial. When asked why they did this the lawyers replied, "We want to get Soo Hyun exonerated as speedily as possible so he can get back to doing what he does bestโgrooming children!"
My understanding is that KSH was originally invited to participate on the show, but affter the scandal broke they politely asked him not to attend their most recent shooting, but he showed up anyway and the staff was too timid to stop him.
Here's another topical X post linking an article which reports some very unfavorable and unsavory statistics regarding South Korean men and also notes the SK justice system has been quite lenient in prosecuting them:
Sentiments of Koreans changing on every platform except Twitterhttps://x.com/O25Move/status/1902312941879189773?t=B_k7LrfF7Xw5INV0epPpsA&s=19
I get a different result using Google translate(which I know can sometimes be inaccurate & misleading.)
My interpretation of the translated text: Overseas, most people support KSR on all platforms including X, but in SK most people support KSH on all platforms _except_ on X, where they support KSR. IOW, sentiments in SK are changing only on X, but not on any other platforms.
Here is the actual translated text: "It was uploaded on Instagram, and looking at the comments, overseas and Twitter are all criticizing Kim Soo Hyun for meeting a minor, but in Korea, except on Twitter, people are focusing on the bereaved family and Kim S.R. and criticizing them."

That post reads (via translation), 'Kim Soo Huynโs biggest fan club representing more than 1 million Chinese fans released a joint statement to demonstrate their support' (sic)
PANIC!
- How did they get the recordings? Was KSH illegally surveilling his ex-girlfriend years after they broke up?
- According to C-netizen sleuths, the audio appears to have been edited, rendering it inadmissible as evidence and subjecting GoldMedalist to charges of fraud
