Han So Hee’s Agency Reacts To Malicious Comments Following Relationship Announcement

After months of speculation, South Korean stars Ryu Jun Yeol and Han So Hee have officially confirmed their relationship. They have captured the public’s attention with romantic trips to Hawaii and Han So Hee’s social media activity. Amidst the buzz, Han So Hee’s agency, 9ATO Entertainment, has intervened to address ongoing controversies and protect the actress’ rights.

In a statement, the agency addressed the numerous allegations and malicious rumours circulating online, emphasizing the detrimental impact it has had on Han So Hee. Expressing concern over escalating harassment, the agency announced intentions to pursue legal action against offenders and encouraged fans to provide evidence of such behaviour. Additionally, the agency extended gratitude to supportive fans and offered apologies for the distress caused by the controversy.

The agency stated, “Han So-hee is grateful for the public’s interest as an actress and has been striving to reciprocate the love and support sent by many people. However, as a person before being an actress, she is going through a mentally difficult time due to speculative posts and malicious comments being indiscriminately written. Regarding this matter, we want to inform you that regardless of the severity of malicious content, we will strongly respond to any actions that undermine the honour and reputation of the artist, both the authors and disseminators.”

“We, along with the artist, deeply reflect on and regret causing concern to many people during the announcement of the relationship and will thoroughly examine and make the best efforts to protect the artist to ensure that our affiliated artists move forward in the right direction,” added 9ATO Entertainment.

According to All K Pop, Ryu Joon Yeol’s agency, C-Jes Studios, previously issued an official statement confirming the relationship between the two stars. They disclosed that Ryu Joon Yeol and Han So Hee have been dating since the beginning of 2024, following mutual confirmation of their feelings. Ryu Joon Yeol reportedly became acquainted with Han So Hee after his breakup with Lee Hye-ri, and he initiated the confession of his feelings for Han. While confirming the relationship, the agency refrained from addressing their trip to Hawaii and emphasised the need for privacy, citing violations of Joon Yeol’s personal rights due to unwarranted misunderstandings and speculations. Furthermore, they asserted their stance of not commenting on rumours about actors’ personal lives and vowed to take strict legal action against derogatory posts.

Following the official statement from Ryu Joon Yeol’s agency, Han So Hee also confirmed their relationship by sharing a handwritten note.
