Kim Sae Ron gets mixed reactions from the public after she posted an update on her Instagram days after her first trial.

The former child actress who was once dubbed as the "nation's little sister" is garnering negative feedback from netizens after making a comeback on social media.

To recall, "The Great Shaman Ga Doo Shim" recently appeared in her first court hearing regarding the drunk driving incident that happened in 2022.

It was after the 22-year-old actress made headlines after smashing public properties, including traffic, light streetlamp, and power transformer, cutting the electricity of the neighborhood, and causing inconvenience among the residents and business establishments.

Exactly 10 months after Kim Sae Ron's DUI incident, the court ordered her to pay 20 million KRW or 15,000 USD fine for the damages.

This is separate from the ones she previously paid for the settlement and penalties due to the incident.
