In a chilling revelation, an audio clip has surfaced allegedly capturing Kim Sae-ron's last phone call, shedding light on the emotional turmoil that preceded the actress's passing.

Released by YouTuber Lee Jin-ho, the recording blew up in the media and drew public attention.

The audio clip, which sources close to the investigation said was authentic, purports to record Kim in an emotional collapse.

According to reports, her distress was triggered by her husband, who sent her disturbing videos featuring shamans delivering grim spiritual readings about her future.

"My boyfriend suddenly showed me this YouTube video where shamans were doing readings and predictions about me," Kim can be heard saying in the recording.

She went on to describe the messages as profoundly negative, culminating in the assertion that she should have "already died."

The recordings have put the spotlight on Kim's troubled personal life, especially her tumultuous relationship with her American husband.

They entered into the marriage, said to be "impulsive and misguided," but rife with emotional struggle, evidenced by a writing agreement between the two.

The contract included clauses banning gaslighting and imposing financial penalties for breaches.

Friends and close acquaintances revealed that Kim was struggling financially, making the financial demands linked to the contract even more burdensome.

As her mental health deteriorated, Kim reportedly reached out to a former boyfriend, sharing evidence of her predicament in a desperate plea for help.

Beyond this, in the weeks before her passing, Kim had been dreaming of launching a café in Hapjeong, a new beginning.

This hope was lost when funding fell through, unfortunately, which increased her isolation and sense of hopelessness.

The then-child actress Kim Sae-ron was one of the most popular in the Korean entertainment industry prior to enduring the slings and arrows of public opinion from a DUI.

Her tragic passing has reignited conversations surrounding mental health awareness and support mechanisms for those who face similar strains.
