The patient, hospitalized for treatment related to dietary drug addiction, died after 17 days of treatment. The case became public just two months later, sparking widespread criticism of the hospital and its medical practices.
Investigations suggested that medical staff may have failed to adequately monitor the patient’s condition while continuing to administer psychotropic drugs that could cause complications such as intestinal obstruction. Several staff members, including the attending doctor, have since been charged and one placed in detention.
Although Yang Jae Woong himself has denied negligence, saying during a parliamentary audit that he could not acknowledge fault, the case is still under further investigation.
Amid the growing controversy, Hani has remained largely silent. She had previously resigned from a scheduled appearance on a variety show, but had not made a personal statement regarding the incident.
Her relationship with Yang Jae Woong also attracted attention. The couple, who were reportedly preparing for marriage, have now postponed their plans.
Despite the situation, fans have noticed that Hani continues to maintain social media posts celebrating their relationship, often referred to as “Lovestagram.” One such post marking their 999th day together remains visible, suggesting that she is still by his side during this difficult time.
Professionally, Hani is considering a return to acting. He is currently reviewing an offer to star in KBS2’s weekend drama “Love comes” (provisional title). If confirmed, it would mark his first drama appearance in three years “Call it love.”
While public opinion remains divided, Hani’s situation highlights the complex intersection between personal relationships and public scrutiny in the Korean entertainment industry.
