Despite issuing an official statement, attention shifted when Han So-hee liked a comment on her Instagram that said, “Now it’s like you’re creating your own problems.“
The controversy began when Han So-hee was accused of owning the private account responsible for negative comments about Hyeri. The account was followed by her close friend Jeon Jong-seo and her stylist, intensifying the rumors.
On October 16th, Han So-hee’s agency denied the allegations, and Jeon Jong-seo unfollowed the account.
On October 17th, it was revealed that Han So-hee had liked the aforementioned comment, sparking various online reactions.
Some speculated it was a mistake, while others questioned her social media activity. Online community users reacted with various comments such as, “Did she just make a mistake…“, “Maybe she should stop using SNS altogether“, “Oh no…“, “It’s easy to accidentally like something“, “It seems like it could have been a mistake, or maybe she did it on purpose…“, “She should stop using SNS”, “So she reads all the comments?“, “It doesn’t seem like a mistake” and “Someone log her out of Instagram, please.”
Previously, Han So-hee faced criticism after acknowledging her relationship with actor Ryu Jun-yeol, which led to accusations that she had “stolen” him from his ex-girlfriend Hyeri. Han So-hee and Ryu Jun-yeol broke up after two weeks of public dating, and the drama between the two actresses eventually ended with public apologies.
She stated that she would take legal responsibility if the claims were true.
Han So-hee recently appeared in Netflix’s drama “Gyeongseong Creature Season 2” and has been cast in the upcoming noir series “Project Y” alongside Jeon Jong-seo, set to begin filming later this year.
