YouTuber Lee Jin-ho stirred controversy by making unverified claims about the late actress Kim Sae-Ron being pregnant and getting an abortion in a video posted on March 19.

The video, as per Nate, titled "Shocking! Kim Sae-ron's Lifetime Recording... The Truth Behind the January 8 Marriage Rumor," is a real big hit among the replies in the comments section related to an ongoing lawsuit involving Kim's family.

Lee recorded the phone call between Kim and an official at her new agency, known only as 'A.'

In the video, Kim describes a January 8 Instagram post in which the word "Marry" appeared next to a photo of the actress with a non-celebrity.

This led to speculation regarding her marital status.

She was reported to have said, 'I didn't put it up; my boyfriend did,' while confirming that they were living together in New York.

During an event in New York, when asked about whether they had a wedding, she said, "Yes, we had a ceremony overseas already.

In an honest revelation, Kim shared, "I had two relationships where during my current relationship (A), I had someone else (B) in Korea.

We parted ways because of matters surrounding B's company, but I offered to assist him with a few things."

"After breaking things off with B, I was sincere with my then-partner," she continued. "I had never planned on getting married, I got pregnant instead."

Kim was asked about her runaway pregnancy, to which she replied, "I had an abortion. Agency A's rep then chimed in with, "But didn't you say you married because of the child?" So Kim responded, "I ended up getting married after I got pregnant, and then I ended up getting an appointment. It was something I was pressured into; it was not a decision I made for myself."

Kim described her husband as "an ordinary corporate employee" and said that he quickly got nervous, especially when they were apart.

The actress also claimed he had controlled her KakaoTalk and Instagram accounts, allowing her only to use Telegram and send text messages.

"He did not understand why I wanted to keep our marriage a secret, and there were a lot of arguments about that, too," she said.

The consequences of this video are massive.

Lee's videos, Kim's father revealed, drove his daughter to attempt to take her own life six times in one day.

Kim's family filed a lawsuit against Lee through the Seoul Metropolitan Police Agency on Tuesday, asking the YouTuber to apologize for the distress his disclosures have continued to cause.

Even after the lawsuit, Lee Jin-ho continued to divulge more information regarding Kim, and the issue sparked controversy on online portals.

Some critics have accused him of "needlessly exposing her personal life," while others claim he is "distracting from the real issue."

This controversy may also raise ethical questions about the media's responsibilities regarding reporting on public figures.
