Ryu Jun-yeol's agency, C-JeS Studio, said in an official statement on the 16th, "Ryu Jun-yeol has confirmed good feelings for Han So-hee and has been meeting since the beginning of this year. After the breakup, Ryu Jun-yeol got to know Han So-hee and recently confirmed his feelings for her."
Han So-hee also acknowledged her romantic relationship with Ryu Jun-yeol through her blog that day, but was extremely reluctant to frame it as a 'transit love'. Han So-hee wrote, "It is true that we are continuing our relationship with good feelings," but added, "However, I would like you to exclude the word transfer."
Regarding Ryu Jun-yeol's photo exhibition, which was the issue, Han So-hee said, "It is true that we met through a photo exhibition, but we went there for the purpose of viewing the exhibition through a friend who is a photographer, and I stopped by to say hello because I heard that we might be working together." “At the time we exchanged our hearts, it was already the beginning of 2024, and the breakup with her (Hyeri) was finalized in early 2023, and I heard that the breakup article was published in November. Based on this fact, I changed my feelings. “I confirmed it and continued the relationship,” he explained.
Previously, on the 15th, an eyewitness report said that Han So-hee and Ryu Jun-yeol were enjoying a trip together in Hawaii, sparking romance rumors in Hawaii. A netizen who verified a trip to Hawaii said, “Popular Korean actors are hanging out next to the hotel pool,” and tagged ‘Reply 1988’, ‘I know,’ etc. ‘Reply 1988’ and ‘I Know But’ feature Ryu Jun-yeol and Han So-hee, respectively. This raised suspicions that the two were traveling together, and it was confirmed that the two were actually staying in Hawaii.
However, while both agencies acknowledged the couple's stay in Hawaii, they did not reveal their position on the suspicions regarding their romantic relationship, citing it as "the actor's private life," thus further increasing public interest in the relationship between the two. .
Hyeri and Ryu Jun-yeol met on tvN's 'Reply 1988', which aired in 2015, and developed into lovers. They began dating publicly in August 2017, but announced their breakup in November last year.
