The public revelation of Lee Jae-wook’s relationship with aespa’s Karina seems to be receiving harsh scrutiny
While Karina and Lee Jae-wook admitted to “carefully seeing each other”, the atmosphere surrounding their relationship appears unwelcoming. Although some fans congratulate their relationship, online opinions are divided.
Especially for Lee Jae-wook, despite the recent release of his new work, attention seems to be more focused on his relationship with Karina rather than his projects.
Lee Jae-wook currently stars in Disney+’s original series “The Impossible Heir”, portraying Han Tae-oh, a minor league member with a meticulous plan to ascend to the major league. However, the focus seems to be more on his appearance and relationship rather than his performance in the drama.
Some express discomfort with the public revelation of their relationship, but others argue that the issue lies not with their relationship but with the fact that the drama is still in its early stages and has not fully showcased Lee Jae-wook’s performance. Some suggest it is too early to judge.
One drama official hopes that misunderstandings about the drama due to Lee Jae-wook’s relationship can be avoided, emphasizing that the drama involves multiple actors and storylines. However, they express disappointment that there were anti-fans even before the drama was aired and hope that people will judge the drama solely based on its merits.
As their relationship becomes public, Lee Jae-wook and Karina are still at the beginning of getting to know each other. Lee Jae-wook’s journey as an actor seems to be long, and whether he will be recognized beyond being known as Karina’s boyfriend remains to be seen.
Meanwhile, Lee Jae-wook and Karina confirmed their relationship on February 27th, with both their agencies acknowledging it.
