I don’t know why Hyeri needs to issue an apology or anything at all, girl has done nothing wrong. But in K-ent she probably feels pressure for having causing scrutiny on the situation, i.e. creating a scene so to speak. She issued an apology today for creating a situation from her Instagram post after rumors of Ryu Jun Yeol and Han So Hee spotted dating in Hawaii. She explained that the end of her 8 year relationship was announced publicly last November but the two agreed to further discussion the relationship. But since then she has had no communication with Ryu Jun Yeol. So hearing the rumor she responded as a woman would and not as a public figure and for that she apologizes. So from her perspective this is basically the Friends “We were on a break” situation, where Ryu Jun Yeol and Hyeri were indeed broken up but kept open the door to discussing things to come, at least that is what Hyeri understood. So to see her now ex-boyfriend move on so quickly vis-a-vis a 8 year long relationship did affect her. I just want to give her a big hug and tell her this kind of sadness will pass and ultimately relationships can get complicated and messy and it’s best to move on.
There are weird casting choices and this one is weird from both the leads itself…

They've been 'estranged' since last July and only publicly announced the split in November. Nobody is obligated to return to a relationship that isn't working for him/her and literally nobody is qualified to criticize any of the people in this triangle.
I don't think she owes anyone an apology but it also was a petty thing for her to do..and HSH responded in kind.
I do feel for her because she invested so many years into being with him but unfortunately, that's just how the cookie crumbles some times. Many relationships end where one party is able to move on a lot faster. It sucks, but it is what it is.
I guessed right! I knew he wasn't honest with both girls. He was stringing Hyeri along with the possibility of getting together when they split in November whilst testing the waters with HSH at the same time and told her he was single. HSH was already a fangirl and has had her eye on him for years so she was ecstatic to get her chance and believed whatever he said.
He didn't have the balls to make a clean break with Hyeri or tell her he was already hooking up with someone else. So it looks like she found out at the same time as everyone else that he has already moved on with a new chick.

Talk about speedy moving on and speed dating. Split with hyeri in November and get a new girl right after that. Didn’t even have the guts to let hyeri know… and then probably told HSH a bunch of stories like they actually broke up in early 2023. HSH claimed they only knew each other in November but I read that they filmed a commercial together years ago…. I just hope HSH or RJY won’t strike back at Hyeri to make her look bad.
If this was a Ross and Rachel situation they should of never announced they were split up to begin with but because everyone knew they broke up, its not a "We're on a break" situation. They both are free to date whoever. If this was how Hyeri responded to the rumors in the beginning, HSH has a right to defend herself if people assume she was a home wrecker. Hyeri and HSH don't need to apologize to anyone because its only human to react in such a way for both girls. They are public figures so people expect this, its a part of the career title.
I understand her situation, it must hurt a lot, but at the same time don’t understand why people are slamming So Hee. She is out of the picture regarding their relationship. I do find it weird how you can have no communication at all for 4 months and still think there is hope or be surprised to know the guy has moved on. If there was seriously an open door for them to get back together, 4 months is too long for zero communication. At most, the one who should be blamed here though is the guy.
“Hsh was out of the picture in their relationship”,
Agree. But responded defensively on a post that is not named and telling people about a relationship history that she was NOT part of at that point of time can rub people the wrong way, and that actions did escalate the issue further.
Peple process things differently, and we do not know what the exes’ last communjcation entailed or what is being said between the two, so clearly we have no inderstanding of what is going on.
Emotions are complicated, and everyone should be given the chance to move on and be better. I dont think anyone wanted the ending or the bad beginning in any relationship. My hugs to all three of them.
100%
From the moment this news came out, I was completely baffled at how much hate HSH got. The thing is, if the belief here is that she was with this guy while he was with Hyeri, that’s a completely different issue. But most of the hate isn’t exactly due to that. So the anger toward her makes no sense.
At the same time, I initially called Hyeri immature for starting it all. But she’s only human and it’s only fair if she has a reaction. The issue is that she’s a celebrity and HSH got slammed the moment she posted that, so the latter reacted in kind. It was a definitely an unfortunate chain of events.
This whole situation is really sad for both girls because they got caught in a situation that just spiralled. There was no way RJY was getting back with Hyeri seems like, but she was still pining for him. It’s not his fault for not wanting to be with her anymore and neither is it HSH’s for going out with a single guy. The fault is in how he handled the situation once it broke out. Hiding behind his girlfriend’s skirt is rather pathetic to put it lightly.
@Butterfly
We have had our differences but I agree with your take.
She said they talked some time between the Nov announcement and when this Hawaii news broke out. She didn't say when that convo happened. It could've been last month, it could've been January. So it is not 4 months of zero communication. We have no idea of the actual timeline. You also don't know what the discussions were and whether he just wanted some time apart and left the door open for reconciliation. You're assuming he made it clear.
What I don't get is people say the guy is the one to be blamed but be writing entire paragraphs about how either one of the girls are stupid. No one has all the information but everyone is a critic.
Nope she said they talked after the article came out reading comprehension much
This sucks all round to have had your relationship be so publicly exposed. Such is the life of celebrities and when they use social media, there’s no one to even block them before the post without thinking. I feel sorry for both girls and understand both their reactions too. Hopefully they both have said everything that needs to be said and we can move on from this.
I have to say. This whole situation reminds me of a famous Hollywood real-life drama of Jen Aniston-Brad Pitt-Angelina Jolie. Here we have the Korean equivalent of Hyeri-RJY-HSH. And we know the ending of the first trio.. all singles, but Jen definitely retained more dignity and more love from public. She still remained friends with Brad, but the same can't be said for Angelina Jolie. Her image is forever tainted with being the other woman, her movies don't sell well, and she's forever trying to transform her image of being a good mother. Maybe she did managed to for some who don't know the scandal, but it's never forgotten by many who do. And Brad.. no words on this piece of trash.
No idea where you're getting this take from. You're certainly not in the US. Angelina Jolie is doing really well. Her last few movies were box office hits and/or got her an Oscar nom, she's dabbled in directing, and her next project is in that new prestige biopic. Gen Z loves her for her activism.
The West doesn't blink at cheating scandals, nor are women 'tainted' by them. Just look at how Ariana Grande is doing right now.
Nope, Angelina is still doing well. She is still active with her humanitarian efforts, recently debuted her Jolie Atelier line making its debut on the Oscar red carpet worn by novelist Suleika Jaouad, and has major work in the pipeline - still an A-lister. Jolie and Pitt are still relatively active film wise while Aniston not so much but she does still work. Most people have moved on from that situation including those involved and have not really addresses it since then.
I had refrained from commenting on this issue all these while because I haven't heard the official statement from all sides yet. So now here's what I think. All parties are at fault but with varying degrees, Ryu Junyeol gets the largest for starting a new relationship without making a clean-cut breakup with Hyeri, and Hyeri gets the least as she didn't go crazy making a ton of responses fueling debates. Yes, she had started it with her unfollowing of RJL but it's understandable given that there wasn't a complete closure and it seems like she's only shading RJL, because apparently he couldn't find time to visit her favourite vacation place together throughout their 7-8 years yet he went there with HSH within a few months of dating, regardless work or not.
Han Sohee added fuel to the fire with her clarification story and multiple responses to netizens, when she could have just solely denied the transit love rumours made by netizens and asked people not to make unnecessary speculations. But she had to put the meme of a dog holding knife and respond to Hyeri's insta story by saying "It's fun for me too" which looks like she's threatening people and challenging Hyeri, making the situation becomes woman VS woman. Coupled that with her multiple responses to netizens that's full of inaccuracies and backtracking. Well, my impression of Han Sohee has changed from being cool and edgy to impulsive and immature.
With that said, it's around time for closure on this issue. Stop arguing, let this issue quiet down and we will all move on to the next controversy.
@Lilith 'Seven year itch' comes to mind... I can see Marilyn Monroe in my head...
Whatever happened behind-the-scenes with regards to the relationships (when did they break up, was there any cheating, etc), I feel bad for Hyeri having to apologise. Yes, she didn't respond in the classiest way when news of RJY and HSH's relationship broke but at the same time, she also didn't speak badly/ call out either party/ behaved badly or rudely enough that warranted an apology. HSH could also respond in a cryptic, snarky manner too but she didn't - she was way more aggressive in her response. Understandably, because people were assuming she was the 3rd party. But at the same time, her response dipped into the "badly behaved" category for me and thus, her apology was warranted. But not Hyeri's - unfollowing an ex when he has a new flame doesn't call for an apology too.
honestly, I understand both women's reactions - one believed she was being strung along, the other believed her bf and his ex were over long before they said they were and got mad at being called a 'homewrecker' (I would be angry and hurt too in either situation).
The one who's at fault is Ryu Jun Yeol for not ending things cleanly with one girl and lying to the other but of course it's Han Sohee getting the hate and witch hunts for repeating what he probably told her, incredibly excessive considering both ladies have apologised for their SNS posts and he's just sitting there letting them (especially HSH) take the heat.
They shouldn't have posted anything ! As a mere citizen i don't use any social media , my life is private and i see my face on the mirror every day ! But celebrities use it to promote themselves , that's okay but why expose their private life . Outlets discovered that they were dating, and so what , no need to explain further . If they want to dig their own grave , let them do it, i will not miss their acting ! There are better actors to replace them .
I agree...it really should not be done in public. Hindsight- Hyeri clearly realised she should not have done so... but in fit of emotion, she did express her thoughts thru social media.
Regardless, I do wish future happiness for Hyeri. As for the couple, this blowup will be a early test of their relationship. A tough test but this is the price of being celebs...unfortunately.
@Cahill, I just had a thought about those that wonder why 2 pretty girls are fighting over this not attractive man...Someone pops in my mind. Daniel Criag...undeniably one of the best James Bond actor but he is really not a good looking guy. But he is just so cool as James Bond. In real life he too had similar relationship situation. RJY is of course not the same league...
@HL, honestly perhaps because i'm old , there a lot of actors that i find attactive and they aren't what we can call handsome . Shin ha Kyung, Vincent Lacoste, Josh Brolin, Mark Ruffalo, Martin Freeman,and a lot of british actors ...They have something that attracts me , so why not RJY for them . But if i was in her shoes i wouldn't have "fight"over a guy through social media or even in private . Even more when they are celebrities of a conservative country , but emotions can't be always under control! It's always a pleasure to share our opinions !
@Cahill, I agree. I dislike negative comments that provoke for sake of it. But I do enjoy chatting to exchange opinions. LOl...you are right about British actors...we have a good number of very good actors who I would not call good looking. 🤣. But their skills surpass their looks. Benedict Cumberbatch, Hugh Laurie, Rowan Atkinson, Sir Ian McKellen..just naming afew.
I'm french and even if the Brexit made me sad i still prefer british actors over french ones . Late Alan Rickman, Mark Strong,John Simm, and the handsome and good actors that make me sway from Spooks( Matthew MacFadyen, Rupert Penry Jones, Richard Armitage ) Shawn Evans ( Endeavour Morse) , Michael Fassbender,Clive Owen,Colin and jonathan Firth, James Mcavoy, Eddie Reydmayne, DAVID TENNANT,....and great actresses too .
@cahill, Brexit is making my life miserable... beyond sad.
