Yoo Hye Won, the influencer who attracted attention due to rumors of a relationship with former BIGBANG member Seungri, confirmed her presence at the 2NE1 concert
On October 5, he shared a video of himself enjoying the concert, adding the phrase “See you again” with a smile.
In response to a fan’s question about his favorite 2NE1 song, Yoo replied: “’SCREAM’, of course! Why didn’t you run it? I guess I’ll have to go to the encore concert,” expressing his enthusiasm.
Yoo Hye Won is also known to have been involved in three dating rumors with Seungri. The rumor first surfaced in 2018, when Taiwanese media reported photos of them embracing outside a hotel in the Netherlands. The second rumor surfaced in 2020, when Seungri joined the military and a woman who appeared to be Yoo Hye Won was spotted in the backseat of his car. At the time, his agency said it was unaware of his personal life.
Additionally, a tipster who claimed to have seen the couple in Bangkok described them as having natural physical contact while being cautious around Koreans. Although a third round of dating rumors have surfaced, both Seungri and Yoo Hye Won have remained silent on the topic.
Yoo Hye Won gained public interest regarding their relationship during Seungri’s enlistment period. Some netizens speculated that she may have supported him during his imprisonment. However, recent reports revealed that Seungri was enjoying dates with other women, leading to opinions suggesting that their relationship may have come to an end.
During Seungri’s enlistment, a person believed to be Yoo Hye Won was seen in the backseat of his car.
Seungri was indicted on nine charges, including facilitating prostitution, sexual assault, habitual gambling and embezzlement related to the Burning Sun scandal in 2019. The Supreme Court upheld his guilty verdict, sentencing him to a year and a half of prison. After his conviction was upheld, Seungri was transferred to a civilian prison and was released upon completion of his sentence.
After being caught up in the third Seungri dating rumors, Yoo Hye Won said, “I apologize for causing confusion among those who truly care about me due to the recent articles. I have been mentally distressed due to the growing baseless speculation and malicious comments.” It also said it was gathering evidence against malicious commenters for legal action, which was later cancelled.
Yoo Hye Won has also been linked to dating rumors with professional basketball star Heo Woong, but this has also been denied.
Born in 1995, Yoo Hye Won is currently 29 years old. She made her acting debut in the 2018 web drama “Go, Back Diary,” but has not pursued any significant acting activities since. She is currently active as a mall influencer and model.
In response to fans’ questions about her love life, she noted, “A guy may come and go, but only the man I marry will be revealed.” When asked about her ideal partner, she replied, “Someone who is respectful, caring, sweet, family-oriented and polite.”
On May 20, he clarified a photo of himself with a man, stating: “No, please don’t misunderstand; the person next to me is my close male friend. The photo aroused curiosity as it depicted them close together.
