Han So-hee’s Side Refutes Rumors Of CF Contracts Being Terminated Due To Romance Scandal

On March 20th, an official from Han So-hee’s agency 9ATO Entertainment released an official statement, saying “The suspicion that Han So-hee’s advertising contracts were terminated due to the actress’s recent private life issues is not true at all”.

Han So-hee recently publicized her romantic relationship with actor Ryu Jun-yeol. In the process, rumors of Ryu Jun-yeol’s transit love from his ex-lover Hyeri and Han So-hee arose. In particular, Hyeri unfollowed Ryu Jun-yeol after posting “That’s interesting” on her Instagram Story, making netizens speculate that Ryu Jun-yeol might have started dating Han So-hee before breaking up with Hyeri in November last year. However, Han So-hee wrote a long post on her blog to deny it.

Nevertheless, public criticism of Han So-hee and Ryu Jun-yeol continued to spread. Han So-hee then closed her blog and set her SNS account to private. In the end, Hyeri clarified the process of her breakup with Ryu Jun-yeol and apologized for causing a stir with her Story.

After the controversy cooled down, some brands that Han So-hee had served as an advertising model recently decided to not extend their contracts with the actress. As such, many netizens suspected that it was because of her recent romance scandal. However, the official from Han So-hee’s agency said to OSEN, “The advertisers and Han So-hee already agreed to not extend their advertising contracts earlier this year”, emphasizing that there was a misunderstanding among netizens.

Han So-hee will meet the viewers through Netflix’s original series “Gyeongseong Creature Season 2”.
