Can this story die already, for the sake of the three celebs involved who are people with their own emotions and weaknesses. It’s been just two weeks since Ryu Jun Yeol and Han So Hee were spotted in Hawaii, first denied and then admitted the relationship, ex-girlfriend Hyeri made a comment, then Han So Hee melted down demanding clarification and confirmation she didn’t date a taken man, and then the two new lovebirds broke up. Other than one follow up post explaining her original post, Hyeri has remained silent and has posted less on SNS than usual. But this week she made a new post and it’s been flooded with hate comments towards her likely from fans of the other two stars. K-netizens are so angry on her behalf because among the three she’s the least problematic one in this whole thing. I hope she turns off her comments and keeps living her best life.
Chinese top actor Xiao Zhan gave a very wise answer when asked about how he took online (negative) opinions about him in an interview. This is what he said:
“I don’t read those online. You will find that many issues are resolved once you get away from internet.”
I think all these K celebs in the recent news should follow that wisdom. They should all get off of their SM accounts for a while.
Good one Xiao Zhan!! So true.
It isn’t from the “fans of the other two stars”. It’s from fans of HSH. They have been absolutely vile towards Hyeri since this started. They are toxic, mean girls who pick on women just like their fave. HSH was the one who wouldn’t leave Hyeri alone in her crazy posts instead of going after her (now ex) boyfriend. HSH was leaving Hyeri hate posts up on her blog but deleting negative comments about herself so this is exactly what she wanted.
Hyeri has the support of the GP, her fans, her family and is loved in the industry. She should keep posting and ignore those pathetic bullies.
Oops! Sorry @HL. This wasn’t supposed to be a reply to your comment. It was supposed to be a general reply to the original blog post.
@Sunny, I had similar problem recently a few time too…Lol.
@Sunny, fine if Hyeri has never been or won’t be affected by all the negativity about her!!!!!! But I’m talking about in case she has indeed been affected. We can’t get rid of cyber bullies, but we can choose to keep away from the sources of bullying since it’s not physical like a lot of campus bullying but only verbal and virtual that can be easily shunned. It’s up to her to continue SM activities if she’s strong enough to read all the bullsh*t without any impacts on her mentally. I doubt it since words are also very powerful weapon to harm ppl. No need to waste time and mental energy on bullsh*t.
I just don’t get this mass obsessive possessiveness. It’s so out of the norm for me, to see people controlling the dating lives of strangers.
Celebrities shouldn’t use instagram for their personnal life, keep it professional!
They will avoid the “I was emotionnal” excuse when they posted something stupid.
Second!
You can stop them just move forward.
Typo: I hate my dyslexia sometimes!!
You cannot stop them…just ignore them and move forward.
HSH fans behaving with as much as class as their queen
Previously I tried hard not to blame HSH, seeing her as a casualty of misunderstanding and being emotionally affected at that time. I thought she was really pretty and deserve her success after years of playing insignificant supporting roles.
However, her latest post demanding Hyeri to “validate” the new relationship made me speechless. Is there any celebrity out there who had demanded for an ex GF to blame herself and to bless new relationship?
No matter how much HSH was affected… a large part was from her own off-the-rail rants, unreasonable expectations and creating hatred towards Hyeri. I am very surprised that the advertisers, producers and fans are still supporting HSH so much. And all at the expense of destroying Hyeri. Looks like not only HSH can’t handle her new relationship but she is taking out things on Hyeri… I just feel awfully sorry towards Hyeri.
Yeah. Because there’s no such thing as reaching out privately right? Lol. Han So Hee dug her own grave.
@shader
Hahaha supposedly HSH tried to contact hyeri privately. But who dares to talk to a loose cannon? Frustrated for not being able to contact hyeri, then HSH broadcasted to the world, asking hyeri to be the bad person… does hyeri owe her anything? I think HSH has an issue with entitlement, thinking everyone owes her a favor.
Ugh. Please let this whole drama just die already. It was initially popcorn worthy, but that’s gone completely stale and this has dragged on for way too long.
Hyeri needs to maybe lock her comments section for just a little bit until the crazies settle down And HSH fans need to stop further harming their actress. This is embarrassing for all parties involved. Lastly, I doubt RJY has enough fans to be spamming Hyeri, so for this singular thing, he might finally be blameless 😂
@butterfly
Hahaha I like the part “RJY has enough fans…”
LOL. Reminding me of this guy isn’t worth any women coming at one another. The continuous drama of cyber duel is hilariously boring. You’re right @Butterfly.
These girls aren’t worth shit either. They just happened to be born prettier but no wonder pretty privilege is a thing. I don’t know how there’s this agreement that both are so much better than him came from except people who think girls are princesses by default.
@lol, you and some other commenters like Olesya1 seemed to have trouble interpreting ppl’s opinions appropriately. Ppl don’t consider this guy worth attention from any women. Ppl didn’t say the other way around. Whether these two gals deserve decent men or not isn’t the point here. Just use your logic! LOL
The least problematic is Ryu Jun Yeol. It’s amusing how people blame man in this situation, when he’s the one who did nothing
Literally. All the man has done was kept quiet which is the BEST and SMARTEST thing both girls should have done but since its a man its his fault. And I have no sympathies for Hyeri either since she started this mess publicly. Her fans like to shield her and HSH fans shield her too. The guy has no fans and has always let his acting speak for itself but people see him as worthless because he’s not as pretty as the two ladies that couldn’t keep their fingers from itching.
What acting does he have LOL?
@Olesya1, the volume of your ignorance and immaturity in your communication with ppl is amazing. LOL. You shoved your own twisted interpretations into my mouth again. I don’t know where I ever said that you cared about what I thought about you. All the comments were here. Which comments of mine had that implication? LOL. Exactly opposite! I personally think you’re someone so self-absorbent and full of yourself with huge ego that you haven’t been able to get a grip to have reasonable dialogues with ppl here. Always riding on a high horse with hubris is the way for you to mask your low self esteem and deny your own bias. You claimed you were not his fan but you have been talking as if you were cos rational ppl would easily figure out the guy is problematic but only rabid fans can’t wrap their heads around the mess he created. LOL.
My question and comments about his acting is what it is by plain English. This whole scandalous episode has nothing to do their acting or performance on screen at all. Their professional skills and accomplishments are supposed to be separate issues. But since anon brought irrelevant “acting” into the comment thread out of nowhere, it’s legit for me to ask back if the guy can act cos his acting wasn’t impressive at all in any dramas in my recollection. I’ve been all logical in the course of communication. But you’re the one going overboard and blowing up to call me “stupid” cos I don’t think he’s a great actor and you seemed to run of logic to make your points across. LOL. You were getting emotional for this guy. No brainer. Regardless of how you defended yourself, other commenters agreed that you acted like a teen emo. Perhaps you are? LOL.
@Somebody
He won Baeksang, the most prestigious Korean award, for movie Night owl last year LOL
I had no idea he has been doing movies the recent years. He’s already 37 yrs old. That isn’t an impressive accomplishment to me. I’m not a Korean movie fan. I only watched dramas. The only one Korean movie that has ever been brought to my attention is Parasite. Speaking about K drama, he had never been great. LOL
Is a movie actor superior to a drama actor? I don’t think so.
@Somefody
I don’t even know what replay to you. This is how stupid your comments.
First, why do I need to know if you watching korean movies or not? Your taste has nothing to do with his acting. You asked about his acting, I answered, that’s all.
Second, what this question about drama and movie actors even mean? Do you think their acting skills have anything to do with whether they’re filmed in a movie or a drama?
If you think popularity is more important than acting skills for an actor, then we have nothing to talk about.
Third, his personal life has nothing to do with you. Lifetime partner material or not, this is not your business. In case you haven’t noticed, we didn’t discussed Han Soo Hee’s, Hyeri’s or Ryu Jun Yeol’s characters, only about the mess they made. And yes, he was the most mature in this situation.
Are you his friend, or Han So Hee, or Hyeri friend? If not, how do you know and why do you care about his character?
If you want to gossip about the character of a someone you’ve never met in person, find someone else to talk to, I won’t stoop to that level.
@Olesya1, you don’t have to use condescending tones to dismiss my comments. That doesn’t make you look wiser nor does that get your points across LMAO. It’s personal opinion whether an actor is a great actor or not regardless of if he won dozens of awards for his movies or dramas. Talking about entertainment, it’s all come down to personal preference. Like many other commenters here, I don’t find RJY great in acting besides that he is visually not appealing at all. I only expressed my personal review of his acting. How is that stupid? Oh yeah you’re worked up to even resort to name calling just because I don’t appreciate an actor you like. Such hubris as if you were a renowned and world-class film critic for Oscar LMAO! Nobody would think you’re smart just because you’re full of yourself when defending this man whose character is very questionable. Also don’t put your twisted words in my mouth. When did I ever consider popularity more important than acting skills? LOL. There have been way more drama and movie actors for the past few decades who are both popular and also great in acting.
You obviously got triggered cos I disapprove of RJY your man. LOL. Is he completely innocent of this dating scandal just bcos his mouth stay zipped as if he were an outsider LMAO? Nope! He’s the most problematic one among the three immature adults with questionable character to deal with relationship. So, your comments all sound ludicrous to me. LOL
@Somebody
You wanted to see me as someone who cares about other’s opinion, and that’s my reason to write this comments. It seems like you’re the one who cares about this, since you brought up this topic and wrote that your opinion is similar to other commentators.
My answer: no, I don’t care what you think about me, this is my sincere opinion, and surprisingly to you I’m not RJY fan.
If you think what he is a bad actor, why do you asked about his acting first and wrote this weird thing about “movie actor superior to drama actor”?
Your way to choose words like “RJY your man” is impressive, can’t adding more to this.
IMO, the man is the most problematic one in the whole trio drama. It’s not about his profession but about his character, definitely not a lifetime partner material. LOL.
@Somebody I totally agree. Like, yes, he was wise to keep quiet and choose his career, so he’s definitely smart from a career standpoint. But him not stepping up for his new girl will make him forever side eye-worthy to me. I don’t know why that olesya said that him keeping quiet makes him the least problematic, lol it’s literally the opposite for me. Him keeping quiet proves he’s smart about his career decisions but also makes him a red flag. But then again, that commenter always has bad takes about everything lmao. The least problematic is definitely Hyeri. She posted literally one Instagram story, didn’t even name names, apologized when she didn’t even need to, and never spoke about this matter again. Han So Hee and Ryu Jun Yeol deserve each other lol. Olesya’s comment about people “aLwAyS bLaMiNg ThE mAn” when women have always been vilified for less makes her sound like a pick-me girl and I have no patience with men-centered women like her, ew lol
@Marshmello People might have thought he was being unfair to his ex gf if he had said anything in favour of his new gf and vice versa. Also, it’s not like they would have believed it, they would have came after him saying he is telling all this to save his face. Either way he was gonna lose, also it’s not like people hadn’t assumed the worse cause what he is “ugly” and people already assume if you are not beautiful enough, then you are bad by default.
@Marshmello
All this things about me you could write directly to me 😂 Do you two have this somehow of habit, discussing the characters of people you don’t know and never meet in person, badmouthing them behind their back?
If there were any woman at his place, I would think the same thing, what she is a less problematic among them.
He would have been hated anyway, even if he had said something, he would have chosen a side and directed the hatred of the internet trolls at one of the girls. If Hyuri hadn’t written anything and Han So Hee hadn’t replied, none of this would have happened. You think he should clean up the mess they made. That’s why I think you blame him just because he’s a man.
And we don’t know if he breaks up with her because he choose his career or because he chose himself. I’m not interested either, it’s their personal life. I’m not going hating or badmouthing them for their personal problems.
So keep it up, if you love to gossip about someone else’s private life, I’ll leave you two alone.
That Olesya1 seemed to have trouble taking the right messages from other commenters. I challenged her statement about the guy who I think really has got some character issues in dealing with personal relationship. Just to the opposite of her assessment, IMO, the guy appeared to be the one messing up the whole relationships with the two women. He isn’t innocent at all just bcos he hid in the corner chicken out. IMO, the man has no balls. Whether he’s a good actor or being professional dealing with bad publicity like this is irrelevant to the fact that he doesn’t have the kind of character to take due responsibility in a relationship. Perhaps he just played with two women and wasn’t serious about their relationships at all. Welp! His action said a lot. That’s why I think he’s the most problematic one with kinda shady personality.
@Jimmy, the guy is ugly is a fact to many drama fans, me included. I don’t have to deny it and you don’t need to agree with it. But ppl made fun of his looks not for the reason of his looks but to just play with extra sarcasm, being ironic that a guy like him isn’t even worth a penny to fight for. LOL. There’re many speculations about what could be underneath their social plights this far. One of the speculations is that the guy is the one responsible for their dating triangle but he had no balls to admit his fiasco. LOL. You can have other takes but many including me believe he’s the one most problematic in their relationships and all the embarrassment as a result. You don’t need to agree and are certainly entitled to your own opinion. But there is a bottom line to carry out basic internet etiquette. Nobody should attack ppl holding different opinions with name calling as this Olesya1 easily did. LOL. Peace!
How is she the least problematic? What is this obsession with Hyeri?
She started this whole mess in the first place. If she had kept her mouth shut and handled her issues in private as the adult that she is, we wouldn’t be here now.
She knew exactly what she was doing. Oh but you all didn’t mind when she sent her hordes of fans to HSH to abuse *her*? That was fine.
My, my, what lovely hypocrisy I see. It’s ok to abuse HSH by Hyeri fans but now it’s a problem when the shoe is on the other foot.
The least problematic person here is him because he kept quiet as he should have.
have you taken your meds today? no need to get so triggered. these people dont even know who you are lol.
Here comes a toxic HSH fan blaming her poor character and conduct on everybody else.
How does Hyeri posting one vague indirect IG story (which was aimed at the guy she dated for 7 years) and had nothing to do with HSH who Hyeri never even followed compare remotely to how HSH behaved.
Most people thought nothing of the IG story and if HSH had “kept her mouth shut” as you so nicely put it and just let her agency manage things instead of going off on a rant at Hyeri on IG, posting an insulting meme at Hyeri, announcing she was dating RJY when both agencies had already denied, the whole thing would have blown over quickly.
Hyeri subsequently explained the Story, apologised and never once mentioned HSH. Meanwhile HSH wrote two posts weeks apart attacking Hyeri, implying she was a liar, demanding she respond to her in public, talking down to Hyeri about a relationship she wasn’t even part of.
The only reason this escalated was because of HSH’s unhinged behaviour. There are reasonable, professional ways she could have defended herself but her nasty, immature and disrespectful behaviour was not it.
Both women sucks, Hyeri and HSH. This just shows that Hyeri is a smart snake and HSH is a dumb snake. Hyeri had netizens on her side so of course its much easier being the bigger person. HSH could never scrub her name clean even if she wanted to because people were already labeling her as the devil despite her name not being linked in the beginning.
@sunny
some people have selective hearing/ reading. Or they are just HSH die hard fans. No matter what, all others are wrong and HSH always right. They gonna witch hunt hyeri until she breaks down. Anyway hyeri isn’t gonna fall apart over this silly issue. So they are ranting away at hyeri coz they are having mental breakdown just like HSH. Hopefully HSH wakes up, grows up and stop attacking hyeri coz it reflects poor attitude, low self esteem, no self awareness and lack of humility on HSH.
@Sunny
Yeah, in some fantasy world of Hyeri stans.
HSH was also flooded with hate comments after her post. From homewrecker to cheater. That’s naturally just fine in your book because Hyeri is a blameless angel who was hurt so it’s ok to abuse the other woman.
You pick and choose which abuse is ok when neither one is. Neither woman should listen to it and neither one of them should have done what they did.
But Hyeri doesn’t get a pass, just like HSH doesn’t get a pass. Well she does in your book of course, innocent little lamb that she is who absolutely did not get hordes spitting on HSH … Except that she did.
You people always say Hyeri is as problematic as HSH but can never elaborate why you think Hyeri, who posted ONE IG STORY which is most likely not even directed at HSH, is as problematic as your unhinged fave. No one is saying that Hyeri is a “blameless angel”, but again, she posted ONE THING that didn’t even mention HSH, then apologized and moved on with her life. You’re telling me she’s just as problematic as HSH who’s still ranting and posting unhinged sh*t two weeks later? LMAO. Again, literally NO ONE is saying Hyeri is a perfect angel, but please elaborate how is Hyeri the same level of problematic as HSH who even shaded Hyeri in her last deleted post.
Also, people calling HSH a cheater and a homewrecker is NOT okay, but that doesn’t make Hyeri problematic as it’s not her fault people are commenting those things on HSH’s social media posts. She never even mentioned HSH throughout this whole mess 🤷🏻♀️
@Marshmello
It absolutely is her fault that people were attacking HSH. If she hadn’t made that post and attacked indirectly none of this would have started.
But that is the problem with you Hyeri stans. You play dumb as if she didn’t do anything or at best, justify her behavior with her being hurt while ignoring what happened to HSH. Then you turn around and cry about hate comments on Hyeri’s Instagram.
No, Hyeri knew really well what she was doing and what she was starting by making that post. She is just as much to blame as HSH who then escalated.
Hyeri aside, RYJ and HSH were very unprofessional to start hooking up months before their project started filming. Even if HSH hadn’t lost her marbles causing RJY to break up with her,they could have broken up for other reasons pre-filming and that would have jeopardised the project.
Actors usually start dating during or after but not before a project for a reason. The smart thing to do would have been to keep things professional until filming and started officially dating afterwards. They would even have had a fun reel to real angle to promote the drama.
Now they are broken up, off the project, messiness exposed, reputation taken a hit, RYJ let down the director who is his close sunbae. And for what?
You post some of the most absurd takes, not just in this article too. This one’s taking the cake tho because how absurd?! Why would anyone stop dating until “after their project starts” to “keep things professional”? So I guess SJK, SHK, SYJ, HB are all unprofessional. Like what ridiculous logic is that? So in your mind, if this whole thing happened while the drama was mid shoot and mid air, that would’ve been more acceptable? That’s hilariously illogical, I can’t even 🤣
@Butterfly: Why are you so triggered? Nobody’s talking about or to you, girl. Calm down and keep scrolling if you are so offended.
You seem to lack reading comprehension. I didn’t say start and stop dating. I said keep things professional and platonic and don’t start dating before filming starts. What’s absurd about that? None of the couples you attempted to use as examples were dating and going on holiday together before their drama even started filming. Both HB-SYJ and SJK-SHK officially started dating after they worked together post-The Negotiation/CLOY (depending which story you believe) and post-DoS respectively. Yes, they may have started having feelings whilst filming but their OFFICIAL story is that they developed feelings during filming and started dating after working together.
There is a reason every organisation has regulations and policies about how to manage workplace relationships. That isn’t absurd. In most organisations workplace relationships have to be disclosed for a reason. In some places one person is expected to leave if they are in relationship and working in close proximity as it can impact the overall work dynamic of a team or power dynamics particularly if couple’s split.
Oh no… calling out a ridiculous comment = me being “triggered”? 🤣
Ironic – particularly after which you compose a long essay. Happy for you or sorry it happened. My time is precious, and based on your first comment alone and the very long follow up of most likely further ridiculousness, I’ll choose to spend my time wisely and not bother reading😉
@Sunny
Very good point. That’s exactly how Kdrama industry’s implicit dating rules for leads work. No one really cares about actors who are extras. HSH and RJY broke quite a few employment and their respective agencies’ rules. We all wish that Korean actors would be as free to date and speak up as Hollywood ones are, but alas that’s not possible.
RYJ agency C Jes Studio has just acquired Hyeri’s agency Creative Group Ing. Apparently she is the only one. Interesting times ahead.
@butterfly
I don’t think what Sunny said is ridiculous and the people you mentioned HB &SYJ, SHK & SJK didn’t start dating prior to their films being shot or aired. So I wonder why you’d use them as an example to cancel out what Sunny said. And yes I think she may have a valid point. it doesn’t mean the relationship would have culminated into marriage if they had remained friends and transitioned into lovers during or after shooting the drama, but it looks better, more professional.
Their personal life has nothing to do with you or Sunny. I don’t know how to politely tell you that you have no right to pry into their personal lives and tell them when they should start dating.
@Olesya1: Tell that to HSH. She was the one who made her relationship everybody’s business. She even tried to make Hyeris and RJY’s relatioship everybody business and to tell Hyeri she didn’t know when she broke up with her own boyfriend lmao 😀
@Sunny
It wasn’t Han So Hee. People themselves made it their own business and became interested in their personal lives. No one was forced to read her posts.
If a celeb post about her personal drama on her ig, then people are gonna comment. You cannot have a cake and eat that too. Either don’t post about her personal drama on your ig or be ready for people to pry about your personal life.
@Olesya1
Try to argue your point on the adult level not like over emotional teen. Learn about Korea as a country, their culture, drama industry. There’s no “personal” life for the leading actors, unfortunately, they represent Korea as a country in the people’s eyes. Period. It’s not an individualist society. Besides. Do you know how much money is involved in each drama project from sponsors? One wrong move, social post from the actors and all is lost. It’s a money making machine for the whole country. Yes. The pressure (to behave like angels) on actors is great but so are the financial benefits(or losses) for them and their families.
@Olesya1, you don’t know how to politely tell others your opinions! Welp! That’s a proof that you need some lessons for cyber etiquette to learn how to communicate with ppl in civil ways. Don’t get worked up by different opinions! Don’t do name calling others stupid just because they don’t agree with you. LOL. SMH.
@Marina
We’re talking about different things. I’m saying that people don’t have the right to tell others when to start a relationship. You’re talking about a public relationship.
@Somebody
Calm down already. I didn’t call you stupid, I wrote what your comments about “drama and movie actors” and about their personal life is stupid. Reread my comments, I didn’t insulted anyone here. You’re the one who overreacting and even followed me into other comments.
@Olesya1, you just confirmed you did say “stupid.” That’s why you need learn online etiquette to know what types of words are considered very derogatory and should be avoided from throwing out directly on other netizens. You wrote and sounded all like a emo teen with brain for reasoning skills still being underdeveloped. LOL. You don’t consider your comments full of snark at other’s opinion by calling out “stupid” an offense to that person. Obviously you have trouble communicating with ppl reasonably. And that’s usually happened to immature and underdeveloped teens only. LOL
@Jennilee: Exactly. Nobody is saying they couldn’t be friends before filming but launching immediately into a romantic relationship months before the drama even started production was highly unprofessional and look how it turned out for them.
I believe we can do better in our manner of replying people’s takes. Everyone doesn’t have to think like you and calling someone’s opinion ridiculous, absurd, nonsensical is outright bullying. Take for example, even in a law there’s such a thing called dissention opinion, it’s when one or more judges take differs from the majority’s opinion. Does that make them less or stupid or ridiculous, I highly doubt it. If you totally disagree with someone, why not go ahead and state your reasons and that’s that. Lol..ing or insulting someone’s take us rude and just wrong. If God forbid someone commits suicide now, then everyone rallies round and starts acting decent. But when they were throwing insults and causing the person to go into depression, they were in the right. Nothing is accomplished when you bash someone before making your point, unless the point is to hurt the person because you have judged them eligible for such hurt. I think there’s rooms for everyone to safely say what they think and how they feel so long as they’re not insulting or hurting anyone. Shalom ladies
Sunny: I dont think you understand the timeline or the reasoning for why this relationship even became public. HSH and this man was CAUGHT – they did not OFFICIALLY declare anything. They are both VICTIMS of someone who saw them and posted on social media. They did not go around parading their relationship all willy nilly
Celebs are people and have the right to start and stop relationships whenever they want. Whether they remain in public eye is the ONLY question here. I hate it when idiots claim dating is some SCANDAL. It is NOT. If a celebrity dates their costar and in between the project, things sour, it is their responsibility to be professional and continue on with their jobs for which they are PAID. In this case, there was a possibility to pull out and they did because why would they continue when they don’t need to and nothing was finalized? If they already shot half the drama, then pulled out, that would be unprofessional. This is normal business proceedings because actors drop projects for multitude of reasons so this ‘dating scandal’ is not some major outlier. On one hand, you say they should have waited until at least mid project before they start dating and on the other, you claim workplace relationship policies should be adhered when they are in fact NOT COWORKERS and have not yet even accepted the drama offer? I agree with the person who responded to you. This is absurd.
Stop treating celebrities like public puppets who dance to a drama or movie tune. They are full grown adults with personal lives that no one has the right to control other than themselves. You can have an opinion on the situation, not on their right to live their lives. Just sayin
@Mary
You are absolutely right that celebrities are not puppets and public shouldn’t control their personal lives. But we are talking about Korean actors, celebrities and therefore your post becomes nothing more than wishful thinking.
Mary: Not exactly. A tourist claimed she saw them. Both their agencies immediately denied they were there together and said they were on separate private holidays. There weren’t any pics so the agencies could have got away with lying. Agencies lie about dating even when there are pictures. HSH then chose to announce on her IG it was true they were dating AFTER both their agencies had already denied, along with the pic of the dog with the knife and telling everyone how and when they met, started dating, it wasn’t transit love etc. RYJ’s agency then had no choice but to confirm.
Just because they weren’t filming yet doesn’t mean they had no responsibility to the production. They were both in negotiations to star in the project and were in pre-production. HSH literally said herself she heard they were going to work together and that’s why she went to his photo exhibition. The production company said the day after they broke up they were still attached to the project – although they were subsequently removed. RJY’s agency apologised to the production team when he stepped down and said he felt responsible for what happened and “does not want the work to feel any repercussions after what happened”. Yes, actors often drop out of projects for various reasons but that was not the case here. They are out of the project because of the messiness from their short-lived relationship.
I didn’t say to start dating mid-project. I said start dating officially afterwards. Anyway, merely the dating itself isn’t the scandal here. The issue was how HSH behaved and the fallout from their break-up. There are professional expectations about dating when filming in every industry and even more so in the Korean culture. Expecting adults to behave in a professional manner and be accountable for their actions is not absurd or making them “puppets” particularly when their actions could jeopardise a whole production which is exactly what ended up happening.
@sunny
You have stated it clearly according to what was reported….that timeline sums up everything. Things would have been less complicated
1) if they were not in discussion to sign up for the production and HSH did say she met him after they are both gonna be cast in the show
2) if HSH did not admit to the relationship after both agencies’ denials. It shows that either HSH is a loose cannon or the agency and her have different decisions on official announcement…
3) if HSH did not post a threatening picture. The dog is cute but the pic gave off a threatening vibe in relation to hyeri’s post.
The relationship isn’t the problem… it’s how one celebrity communicates and responds to the entire situation.
It’s amusing how HSH’s fans assumed that she is a feminist and a girl’s girl just cause of her edgy style, but she is actually the opposite. Her actions towards Hyeri were quite unpleasant to watch. Shr always had a image of a woman who doesn’t give a f*ck about anything but this incident proves that she is quite an airhead and definitely not a girl’s girl.
@Jimmy
HSH came across as very insecure in this ordeal. Actually, I myself in Hyeri when she commented on her rival’s (HSH) post. I’ve done that and much worse on my BF’s ex-husband and his new girlfriend’s posts. To avenge my friend and her child he happily dumped for another woman. Hyeri and RJY dated for over 7 years. My friend was married for 3. It’s like a knife stub in your heart when you see your happy ex celebrating getting rid of you with pictures and everyone is on his and his new girlfriend’s side.
The one who won in my eyes is the guy. I’ve always found him manly and sexy on screen. And now when two pretty girls fight over him, my
My comment got posted before I finished it.
So I guess I was right when I found RJY unusually sexy as an actor, there IS something in him worth fighting for but I digress.
I also find his silence and NOT posting pictures of him spending time with new girlfriend very tastefully done. As I said in my previous post, it was very hurtful for my BF to see everyone on IG complimenting her ex on his new pretty girlfriend before they were even officially divorced. That’s why I had to jump in on the ex’s IG posts and get some justice for her But that’s America for you. Most marriages are falling apart and home wrecking is basically celebrated.
At least in Korea, people still had some empathy for Hyeri, they understood her pain, if this was any consolation to her.
Maybe we should read a Korean-born & raised 100% traditional Korean female comment on this matter. We all come from different cultures and background. How can we understand HSH and Hyeri feel?… especially with a guy like RJY?
