Netizens have been delving deep into Han So Hee’s private life ever since she became entangled in a dating controversy
Han So Hee is suffering a blow to her image due to the ongoing “transit love” controversy involving her current boyfriend Ryu Jun Yeol and his ex-girlfriend Hyeri. Her past has also been thoroughly scrutinized by netizens.
In a set of dating photos posted by Dispatch, a Chinese netizen questioned Han So Hee about suspicions of her relationship with another man from June to November 2023. This man is model Chae Jong Seok, three years her junior, currently affiliated with YG Kplus.
During that period, netizens spotted Han So Hee and Chae Jong Seok snapped together from behind. They also shared a series of photos dressed similarly and posted photos at the same locations.
Shortly after, Han So Hee’s company dismissed the rumor, insisting that Han So Hee and Chae Jong Seok were only close friends. However, eagle-eyed netizens noticed that Han So Hee and Chae Jong Seok had matching phone cases until November 2023 – coinciding with the time when the actress met Ryu Jun Yeol.
Typically active on Instagram, Chae Jong Seok has been notably quiet in recent days. This has led some to speculate that he might have learned from the news that Han So Hee may have “dumped” him for Ryu Jun Yeol. Nevertheless, such claims are mere speculation without concrete evidence from netizens.
Previously, netizens also found information about Han So Hee’s other ex-boyfriends. Some photos of her with ex-boyfriends were from a time when the actress hadn’t yet debuted, still embracing a rebellious style with numerous tattoos. It’s evident that these men were all handsome, suited to Han So Hee. This prompted many netizens to draw comparisons between Ryu Jun Yeol’s less striking appearance and Han So Hee’s exes.
