Han So Hee sealed dating rumours with Ryu Jun Yeol in a recent confession, only a day after the respective agencies of both actors refused to speak on it.
On Saturday, the My Name star took to her personal blog to admit that she is indeed dating the 37-year-old actor.
However, she insisted that their romantic involvement did not coincide with his previous relationship with singer Lee Hye-ri.
“It’s true that we are in a relationship with positive feelings,” she penned in the lengthy blog post.
Referring to her now-deleted Instagram story, which was allegedly in response to the cryptic post from Girl’s Day former member after the new couple was spotted vacationing in Hawaii, the Nevertheless actress deemed her own action as ‘pathetic.’
“It’s true, it was pathetic and lame. I should have just stayed still,” she continued, “I will apologise to that person [Hyeri] regarding this fact.”
In addition to the 29-year-old South Korean actress’ long statement, Jun Yeol’s agency, C-Jes studios, released a new statement on March 16, acknowledging his relationship with So Hee.
“Ryu Jun Yeol and Han So Hee confirmed their positive feelings for one another and have been dating since the beginning of this year,” they noted.
“Ryu Jun Yeol got to know Han So Hee after his breakup, and they recently confirmed their feelings,” the managing agency stressed.
The Alienoid star was in a six-year-long relationship with Hyeri, 29, before the former couple parted ways last November.
