On March 2, Korean media reported that it is not easy to fall in love with a popular girl group idol. Every past statement and action of an actor who admits to being in love with a member of a popular girl group will be re-examined by Korean netizens.
On the 27th of last month, aespa member Yoo Ji Min and actor Lee Jae Wook both admitted the romance rumors, saying, "We are getting to know each other now." There is a two-year age difference between Lee Jae-wook, who was born in 1998, and Ryu Jimin, who was born in 2000. The public romance between a popular actor and a member of South Korea's top idol group has attracted great attention from the public in South Korea and abroad. In particular, it is reported that the two developed a relationship after meeting for the first time at Milan Fashion Week not long ago, and even the video of the two's first meeting became a hot topic.
However, the hot topic also brought serious sequelae. As malicious comments and rumors of a suspected transit romance spread, Lee Jae Wook's agency recently stated: "We have confirmed malicious posts that slandered the actor and contained false information. This is a serious violation of individual rights, and we are passing our laws Representatives are seeking civil and criminal charges and we will take vigorous legal action."
In addition, actor Lee Jae-wook's past remarks were also recalled by Korean netizens through various online communities and SNS. In 2022, in the content containing the interview video of the actors of the Korean drama "Resurrection" released by the Netflix Korean YouTube channel, Lee Jae-wook at the time was asked, "If you had the appearance of actor Hwang Min-hyun, what would you do?" He replied: "I I will immediately take off my mask and go to a nightclub."
Other leading actors Jung So-min said: "I want to take off my mask and walk on the street." Shin Seung-ho said, "I want to take off my mask and stand on the street." They all talked about Hwang Min-hyun's handsomeness, and Lee Jae-wook also added : "You are so handsome" and said it was a compliment, but as the word "nightclub" attracted the attention of Korean netizens, even a video from two years ago was being recalled.
Although they have now broken up, actor Ahn Bo Hyun, who admitted to being in love with blackpink member Jisoo Jisoo, has also been involved in attitude controversy due to the attention paid to his past content. In the filming video of the Korean drama "Beautiful Cell Girl", a woman who appeared to be a staff member was pointed out that her attitude was inappropriate while listening to Ahn Bo Hyun's script. However, the scenes before and after the video also show Ahn Bo Hyun himself holding the script.
Therefore, at the time of the controversy, a person in charge said that it was unfortunate that only a part of the video was seen, and he said: "It is impossible to understand the entire situation only through the video posted by the online community." Regarding some Korean media reports, it is not easy to fall in love with a popular girl group idol. The actor's past words and deeds have been re-examined by Korean netizens with a magnifying glass.
