South Korean star and member of K-pop girl group Girl’s Day Lee Hyeri issued a statement regarding speculations about her and her past relationship.

“Hello. This is Hyeri. First, I sincerely apologize for the speculations and controversies that arose over the past few days due to my personal emotions,” the My Roommate Is A Gumiho star penned on her now deleted Instagram post, as translated by Korean entertainment website Soompi. 

“I think I failed to consider the ripple effects that each of my minor actions could have. I sincerely apologize to anyone who was harmed because of me,” she continued. 



 The South Korean actress also shared that she didn’t have any contact with her ex-boyfriend after their break-up, which was why she was surprised at the recent news.

Last November, the news was released that my eight-year relationship came to an end. It was not a decision made in a short period of time, and even after the breakup news came out, we had a conversation about talking more [about our situation],” she explained. “However, we have not had any contact or met since that conversation.”

And four months later, I think my emotions after coming across a new article were perceived not as actress Lee Hyeri but as just Lee Hyeri,” she went on.  “I apologize once again for causing harm with my impulsive emotions.”

Hyeri had previously posted a cryptic post in her Instagram story following the dating rumors involving Han So Hee and her ex-boyfriend of 8 years, actor Ryu Jun Yeol.



Netizens believed that Hyeri’s post was actually pertaining to the rumors about So Hee and Jun Yeol, who were speculated to be together in Hawaii.

The actress also said in her statement: “Over the past few days, I didn’t explain the reason for my actions because I thought that our conversations were overly personal, and it would only increase fatigue [to the public].”

Hyeri then asked for an apology to anyone she thinks she caused harm and stated to be more careful in the future.

“If this caused confusion for anyone, I am also sorry for that. Moving forward, I will be more careful with my words and actions. Thank you,” the actress remarked, ending her statement.

Jun Yeol and Hyeri starred in Reply 1988 from 2015 to 2016. The series became the fifth-highest-rated drama in Korean cable television history and the highest-rated television drama at the time of airing.

The two stars went public about their relationship in 2017. After six years, they announced that they had separated. 

Meanwhile, on March 16, the World Of Married star Han So Hee confirmed her relationship with Jun Yeol through her personal blog, retracting her previous statement on reports claiming that they were spotted together in Hawaii.

“When we exchanged feelings for one another, it was already the beginning of 2024, and his breakup with that person was already wrapped up in early 2023. I heard that news articles about the breakup came out in November. Based on this fact, I confirmed my own feelings, and I kept going with the relationship,” the actress stated.

She also addressed a statement regarding her reaction to Hyeri’s speculated cryptic post about her and Jun Yeol.

“I will apologize to that person [Hyeri] regarding this fact, and I sincerely apologize to you all for not reacting wisely. Because I acted based on my emotions rather than rational thinking, I acknowledge that this is completely my fault, regardless of my reasons,” So Hee added, as per Soompi translation.
