[Sportschosun Lee Woo-joo] Former baseball player Shin-Soo Choo was furious over Ha Won-mi's outing.
A short video titled "Shin-Soo Choo Can't Hide His Expression" was uploaded to Ha Won-mi's YouTube channel on the 14th.
Ha Won-mi met with Young-kwang Kim, a former soccer player and close male friend. Ha said, "Earlier, I was talking with the production team about the limits of whether male and female friends can be just friends. I think it's fine to have a meal together, just the two of us." Kim replied, "Having a meal is fine, but drinking is not. There are cameras here." He then added with a laugh, "Brother Shin-Soo, that's not how I am. I'm not that kind of person. I definitely keep my boundaries, so I go to coffee shops to avoid situations like this."
While they were drinking together, the production team asked, "Did you tell Shin-Soo Choo about this meeting?" Ha replied, "He doesn't know I met him like this today." Kim then panicked and said, "Try a video call. I need to ask for his understanding. You came here without telling him? This is bad." The production team also worried, saying, "The timing of how you tell him matters. You can't just meet first and then notify him afterward."
In the end, Ha Won-mi made a video call to Shin-Soo Choo. She told him, "I'm drinking with a male friend right now," and the startled Choo could not hide his expression. Ha also said, "My husband's eyes are shaking right now," in surprise, while Kim burst out laughing, saying, "This is so funny." But Choo still could not relax his face and complained, "XX, have you lost your mind?"
