While Kim Sae Ron is making headlines after she was reportedly working as a part-timer in a cafe, the public is questioning whether the news updates about the actress are true.

In a YouTube video, former entertainment reporter Lee Jin Ho revealed that she received a tip saying that The Great Shaman Ga Doo Shim star is working part-time at a cafe.

In the video, as reported by KBizoom, he also cited that the 22-year-old beauty “is known to have spent all the money she saved during her previous activities on the settlement with businesses and compensation for the damages she caused in her drunk-drink controversy.”

However, at the time, the Youtuber dismissed the rumors pointing out that it would be impossible for Kim Sae Ron to work at a cafe since she has been acting since she was young.

In addition, she already has several series and movies where she plays the main lead.

Following the updates, Kim Sae Ron’s agency, GOLD MEDALIST spoke about the issue regarding the actress, confirming her recent status.

“Kim Sae Ron did spend some time working part-time at a cafe due to her financial difficulties,” the label shared as obtained by the media outlet.
