Hello, this is Hong Yi-seol.
I am carefully posting this because there have been stories circulating about me recently.
The actor being mentioned is simply a good colleague I became close with after taking classes together in college, and the dating rumors are completely untrue!
I hesitated to speak up because I was worried my post might lead to more misunderstandings, but the ongoing speculation could be a burden to the other actor, so I decided to speak directly like this.
The dating rumors and the stories about the drama that are currently circulating are all false, so there is no need to worry. I would appreciate it if you would refrain from further speculation!
I hope everyone has a relaxing weekend.
