Ryu Jun Yeol & Han Seo Hee, it's the first time they've acknowledged their love like this... still in shambles

With actors Ryu Jun Yeol and Han So Hee admitting to their relationship, there are still hot topics and various discussions online. Malicious comments are also pouring in and there are concerns.

The first reports of Ryu Jun Yeol and Han So Hee's relationship first appeared on the 15th A netizen's sighting of the two hanging out at a hotel pool in Hawaii sparked allegations of a relationship.

However, both only acknowledged the fact that they stayed in Hawaii for different reasons and clarified that they would not respond to their personal lives. Han So Hee went to Hawaii for a personal holiday with an acquaintance, while Ryu Jun Yeol only went to Hawaii for photo work, and kept silent about their relationship. There was an atmosphere of defaulting that not denying was an admission, but immediately after the relationship rumours, Han So Hee posted a photo on SNS of herself wearing a friendship bracelet during a trip to Hawaii with an acquaintance, which was interpreted as an indirect denial.

As the situation was being sorted out, Ryu Jun Yeol's ex-girlfriend Hye Ri appeared and poured oil on the fire. On the very same day that Ryu Jun Yeol and Han So Hee's love story was widely reported, Hye posted a sentence on SNS saying, "That's funny" and a landscape photo taken abroad. Then, while there were cautious opinions that it was rude speculation to attach meaning to Hye's sentence, there were conflicting reactions that it was obvious sniping that Hye dared to post the sentence at a sensitive time. In particular, it was captured that Hye Ri had been following Ryu Jun Yeol's SNS after their break-up and unfollowed him on that day.

Allegations of a 'transfer romance' then emerged. Ryu Jun Yeol and Hye Ri made their break-up official in November last year. The spotlight was once again on Ryu Jun Yeol and Han So Hee's past contacts, and speculation grew that this was a public expression of Hye Ri's discomfort for some reason. Han So-hee visited Ryu Jun-yeol's photo exhibition in November last year and had shown a large doll of Ryu Jun-yeol's nickname 'polar bear' several times in the past. The pair are also currently considering an offer to appear in Han Jae-rim's new film Dazzled.

However, Han So Hee explicitly expressed her displeasure at the alleged transfer romance. She wrote on SNS this afternoon, "I don't like people who have lovers and I don't give room, interest, grant relationships or interfere with other people's romance in the name of being a friend. I like shows about transit romance, but not in my life', she wrote, as if aware of Heli's social networking site, 'It's funny'.

The statement was oozing with frustration, but public opinion deteriorated rapidly due to the fact that Han So Hee attached a photo of a puppy with a sword along with it, that unlike Hye Ri, who wrote a statement without a clear target, Han So Hee clearly targeted Hye Ri, who is also a senior in the entertainment industry, and that she took a vague position about the relationship. Eventually, Han So Hee acknowledged her love affair with Ryu Jun Yeol through her blog, saying that it is true that she and Ryu are continuing their relationship with good feelings, but explained that they met through a photo exhibition in November, saying, "Please stop using the word 'transfer'".

Ryu Jun Yeol's side, who remained silent, also clarified that he is dating Han So Hee after splitting up with Hye Ri, saying, "I have confirmed good feelings with Han So Hee since the beginning of this year and we are in a relationship". He also said, "The actor's personality rights are being seriously violated due to unnecessary misunderstandings and speculations" and informed them of his legal response, saying, "We will strongly respond to malicious slander and insulting posts against defamation of false facts, insults and violation of personality rights".

However, the shamble has continued until the third day after the relationship rumours surfaced. In the process of explaining through her blog, Han So Hee said, "I have heard that the breakup with that person ended in early 2023 and the breakup article came out in November. Based on this fact, I confirmed my feelings and continued the relationship", and earlier apologised that her SNS comments were also hasty. However, she continued to be in trouble, even pointing out that a third party had disclosed the timing of Hye and Ryu Jun Yeol's breakup.

Han So Hee replied to some comments from netizens and said, "I didn't ask the breakup date privately, but wrote it after organising it based on an article from last June, so if it's rude, I'll delete it. It was a rebuttal that it was not a changeover, but it was also rude". The uproar over their untimely scandal is expected to continue.
