According to the Seongdong Police Station in Seoul on the 16th, Kim Sae-ron was found dead at his home in Seongdong-gu at 4:45 p.m. that day.
The first discoverer was a friend who had promised to meet in advance and visited Kim Sae-ron's house, and found him and reported him to the police.
A police official said, `So far, no criminal charges have been identified, including signs of external intrusion"The circumstances of the death are under investigation."
The Daily reported that Kim Sae-ron recently changed his name to Kim I-im and prepared for a new start. A close aide of Kim Sae-ron told the media that `Kim Sae-ron prepared to open a cafe and return to the entertainment industry with his acquaintances, but I can't believe the sad news.'
Kim Sae-ron, who debuted as a cover model for the magazine 'Enfang' in 2001, has appeared in a number of works, starting with the 2009 film 'Traveler'. In 2010, he made his face known to the public through the movie `Mister.' Since then, he has appeared in movies 'Neighborhood', 'Manhole', 'Doheeya', 'Manshin', 'Doheeya','Doheeya','Manshin', and dramas 'Do you hear my heart', 'Fashion King', 'What is Mom's Classroom', 'Gorgeous Temptation', 'Witch Bogam', 'Leverage: Fraud Manipulation Team', 'Love Playlist Season 4', 'Windang Jasim'.
However, Kim Sae-ron crashed into a guardrail and a street tree while driving under the influence near Hakdong Intersection in Gangnam-gu, Seoul, on May 18, 2022. At that time, the blood alcohol concentration was about 0.2%, far exceeding the license revocation standard.
Kim Sae-ron broke down a nearby transformer due to an accident at the time, causing damage to businesses in the area. Later, he was fined 20 million won by the court.
Kim Sae-ron, who had stopped all activities after the accident and self-reflected, attempted to return to the play `Dongchimi' in May last year, but eventually got out due to growing criticism over his drunk driving history. Kim Sae-ron, who suffered from a traffic accident settlement and a penalty to be paid back to his former agency, reportedly got a job as a manager at a cafe in Seongsu-dong in July last year.
In November last year, he announced his return as he was filming the movie 'Guitar Man', but he sadly ended his short life.
