📰 Kim Seui Seeks Bail and Claims Innocence… Actor Kim Soohyun Appears in Court to Testify [Excerpt]
Kim Seui, who was detained after denying the investigation’s findings, repeated the same claims at today’s first trial hearing.
He raised his voice, insisting, “Their relationship was real, and the audio recording was not manipulated.”
He only lowered his voice after being reprimanded by the court, which warned him, “Do not shout,” and “If you continue speaking, I will stop you.”
Kim Seui also made various demands to the court.
He requested bail, saying, “I want to engage in a legal battle with world star Kim Soohyun while I am in a sound state.” He also insisted, “I will question actor Kim Soohyun myself.”
The court rejected both requests and proceeded with a closed-door witness examination of actor Kim Soohyun, who appeared as the victim and witness.
Kim Soohyun reportedly focused his testimony on explaining that Kim Seui’s statements were false.
As Kim Soohyun personally took the stand, public attention was drawn to the proceedings. However, he avoided reporters and entered the courtroom through a separate passage.

Koochim really failed to grasp the most basic distinction here; Kim Soohyun is testifying as a WITNESS, NOT standing trial as a DEFENDANT. The person indicted and facing prosecution is KIM SE-UI. KIM SE-UI IS THE DEFENDANT.
…and that protected pathway he used to enter the courtroom? It’s called WITNESS PROTECTION. It’s a perfectly NORMAL security measure.
Imagine being this loud while getting the most fundamental facts wrong. 😭😭
📰 Kim Soohyun Takes the Stand… Kim Seui Claims Injustice and Protests, Insists “It Was Not AI-Manipulated” and Emphasizes His Innocence [Comprehensive]
Actor Kim Soohyun appeared as a witness in the defamation trial of Kim Seui, head of the Garosero Research Institute (Gaseyeon). Kim Seui, meanwhile, categorically denied the charges in court and pleaded that he had been wrongfully accused.
At 2pm on November 11, the Seoul Central District Court’s Criminal Division 26, presided over by Judge Lee Hyunkyung, held a hearing in the case against Kim Seui, who was indicted and detained on charges including violating the Act on Promotion of Information and Communications Network Utilization and Information Protection (defamation).
On this day, Kim Soohyun arrived at the court discreetly at around 1:40pm for the witness examination. Numerous reporters were waiting at the scene to capture footage of the actor, but Kim Soohyun entered the courtroom through a separate route rather than the main entrance.
Kim Seui claimed innocence. His attorney stated, “We deny all the charges in the indictment. The alleged facts are not false. (Kim Soohyun) was in a relationship with a minor,” and requested a verdict of not guilty.
Kim Seui also personally expressed his sense of injustice. He said, “On October 15, I submitted an analysis report from a professor at Korea University’s Forensic Science Center stating that the late Kim Saeron’s voice was not an AI-generated fake.”
He continued, “Since I come from a humanities background rather than a science or engineering one, I failed to properly understand the report’s difficult terminology and focused only on the conclusion that there had been no manipulation or editing.”
Kim Seui then referred to the creation timestamp of the audio file mentioned in the report. He claimed, “The creation time of the audio file is clearly indicated in Coordinated Universal Time (UTC). Kim Saeron was alive at the time and was living in New Jersey, USA.”
He added, “I aired the exposé broadcast about Kim Soohyun on March 10, 2025. It is impossible that Kim Saeron’s voice was manipulated using AI two months before the broadcast and one month before her death.”
Kim Seui also pointed out that the allegations listed in the arrest warrant differed from those in the indictment. He said, “The arrest warrant stated that the audio was an AI-generated fake and that I had conspired with the bereaved family to defame Kim Soohyun with false information, knowing it was false. However, the indictment omitted the AI-manipulation allegation and was changed to suggest that I broadcast the claims based solely on the bereaved family’s one-sided assertions.”
He further pleaded, “While detained, I cannot search for materials or conduct reporting, so I have no choice but to stand trial under unfair conditions. I have been detained, branded a criminal, and turned into a demon.”
During this exchange, the court intervened to restrain Kim Seui as his emotions grew heated. The judge instructed him, “Please do not shout. Speak calmly.” Kim Seui responded, “I’ll be finished shortly. Please don’t interrupt me,” and continued speaking.
Kim Soohyun’s witness examination then began. Since the charges include violations of the Act on Special Cases Concerning the Punishment of Sexual Crimes, the examination was held behind closed doors.
Before the examination, the court stated, “We will hold the proceedings behind closed doors to protect the victim’s privacy. The closed session will be lifted after the witness examination.” The court then ordered Kim Seui and the courtroom audience to leave.
Kim Seui protested to the court, saying, “I also have the right to ask questions directly. Are you preventing me from asking questions altogether?”
The court explained, “You cannot ask questions directly. If your attorney raises them, we will give you the opportunity to ask questions through your attorney.”
Kim Soohyun’s closed-door witness examination began at approximately 2:45 p.m. and concluded around 4:15pm, after approximately 90 minutes. The trial then recessed for about 10 minutes and resumed at around 4:25pm, with cross-examination of Kim Soohyun continuing.
Meanwhile, since March of last year, Kim Seui has repeatedly made claims through YouTube broadcasts and other platforms that Kim Soohyun had been in a relationship with the late Kim Saeron when she was a minor and that he was responsible for her death. He also held a press conference on behalf of the bereaved family and released audio recordings allegedly featuring the late Kim Saeron, along with materials he claimed were KakaoTalk conversations between her and Kim Soohyun.
However, investigative authorities determined that the released audio recordings were manipulated files generated using generative artificial intelligence (AI), and that the alleged KakaoTalk conversations between Kim Soohyun and the late Kim Saeron had also been fabricated. Kim Seui was arrested in May on charges of spreading false information about Kim Soohyun.
Kim Soohyun has also filed a provisional injunction against Kim Seui, seeking the deletion of YouTube videos and a ban on their further publication.
