Seoul - In the wake of escalating rumors about her personal life, South Korean actress Han So-hee, represented by Nine Ato Entertainment, has announced her intention to undertake legal measures against baseless allegations concerning her relationship with actor Ryu Jun-yeol. The agency confirmed that the actress is facing significant distress due to rampant speculation and derogatory remarks circulating online.
According to Yonhap News Agency, the agency is preparing to combat the defamation and protect Han So-hee's reputation vigorously. The controversy gained momentum following speculations linking Han So-hee with Ryu Jun-yeol, exacerbated by a viral social media post alleging their sighting in Hawaii. The ensuing online discourse has been marred by accusations and insinuations regarding the timeline of their relationship, especially in relation to Ryu's previous long-term partnership with actress Lee Hye-ri.
Despite Han So-hee's efforts to quash the rumors on her blog, the severity of the backlash prompted the removal of her statements. Her agency has now taken a definitive stance, warning of stringent legal repercussions for those perpetuating unfounded rumors and attacks on her character.
