Kim Soo-hyun's luxury apartment seized over unpaid advertiser's penalty fee amid Kim Sae-ron scandal

One of Kim Soo-hyun's luxury apartments worth three billion won (S$2.8 million) has been seized.
According to South Korean reports, the medical aesthetic device brand Classys, which previously signed Soo-hyun as their brand model, filed for the provisional seizure over an unpaid penalty fee due to a breach of contract, which the Seoul Eastern District Court approved recently.
The company had ended their contract with the 37-year-old after his explosive scandal where he was accused of dating the late actress Kim Sae-ron when she was underaged. She died from suicide in February this year.
Soo-hyun has denied the allegations, claiming they started seeing each other when she was 19 years old.
He owns three Galleria Foret apartments, which he bought in 2013 and 2014. His lawyers reportedly confirmed one of his units had been seized.
His drama Knock-Off - which was supposed to premiere in the first half of 2025 - has also been postponed indefinitely.
