YouTuber Lee Jin Ho has been ordered to suspend his broadcasts related to the late actress Kim Sae Ron for three months. The court ruled that his actions constituted a stalking crime and issued a provisional measure, which carries legal effect.

On March 31, Kwon Young Chan, the head of the Korea Celebrity Suicide Prevention Association, stated in an interview with CBS No Cut News, “Today (31st), the court recognized Lee Jin Ho’s stalking crime and issued a provisional order.”

As a result, Lee Jin Ho will be prohibited from broadcasting any content related to Kim Sae Ron and her family on YouTube for three months.


Kwon Young Chan also added, “The bereaved family plans to file an additional lawsuit against Lee Jin Ho for defamation based on false information in his recent broadcasts.

This provisional measure is the result of the family’s ongoing legal action against the YouTuber.

Previously, Kim Sae Ron’s family sued Lee Jin Ho for defamation, accusing him of spreading false information about the late actress. However, despite the lawsuit, he continued to disclose unverified details about her and her family’s private lives.

On March 27, the bereaved family filed an additional complaint against him for violating the Act on Punishment of Stalking Crimes and requested a provisional measure, which the court accepted.


Kim Sae Ron passed away in February 2025, leaving fans and the public in shock over her sudden passing.

Having started her career as a child actress, Kim Sae Ron gained fame through the film 'The Man from Nowhere' and went on to star in various projects such as 'A Brand New Life,' 'A Girl at My Door' and more.

Lee Jin Ho, known for producing content on celebrities, has repeatedly stirred controversy with his coverage of Kim Sae Ron. Legal experts believe this case could set a precedent for protecting the dignity of deceased individuals and their families.
