According to Yonhap News on the 17th, the funeral hall of the late Kim Sae-ron at Asan Medical Center in Songpa-gu, Seoul, placed a wreath of the late actor Won Bin and his wife Lee Na-young, who were together in the movie 'Mister'.
Kim Sae-ron, a child actor who made his debut movie 'Traveler', made his name widely known to the public in 2010 with Won Bin. With more than 6 million viewers, which is unusual for a movie that cannot be watched by teenagers, Kim Sae-ron became known as 'Uncle'.
In the past, Won-bin and Kim Sae-ron also attended the Blue Dragon Film Festival and took care of each other with their appearances.
According to the Seongdong Police Station in Seoul on the 16th, Kim Saeron was found dead at his home in Seongsu-dong, Seongdong-gu, at around 4:54 p.m. that day. He was 24. The first person to find Kim Sae-ron who died was his acquaintance, A, who was supposed to meet with Kim Sae-ron on the same day. The police said "No criminal charges were found, such as signs of external intrusion, but we are continuing to investigate the details of the death." The building was a multi-family house, which caused regret by hinting that Kim Sae-ron's economic situation was not good.
Meanwhile, Kim Sae-ron made his debut as a child model for the magazine `Enfang' in 2001 and drew attention with the Korean-French joint film 'Traveler' produced by director Lee Chang-dong in 2009. Kim Sae-ron, who was cast through a competition ratio of 1,000 to 1, performed a delicate performance even at the age of 9 at the time and recorded a great hit with the movie `Mr. Man' the following year, becoming a rising star in Chungmuro with only two films.
Kim Sae-ron is also considered to be an actress who has stepped on the "actors' dreams" twice. Kim Sae-ron became the youngest actor in Korea to enter Cannes after being invited to the official Cannes Film Festival category with 'Traveler', and later visited another Cannes Film Festival with the film 'Doheeya' and left a record of visiting the Cannes Film Festival twice before he turned 15.
Since then, Kim Sae-ron has successfully shed his child actor and flown to the main acting level since he moved between films and dramas, including the films 'I'm a Dad', 'Neighbor', 'Manhole', 'Man Shine', 'Man Shine', 'The Neighborhood', drama 'What's Mother in Heaven's Flower Garden Bear Bae-ryeong', 'What's the Queen's Classroom', 'High School Love On', 'Witch Bogam', 'Witch', and 'Witch's Boxim'.
