On April 11, Han So-hee wrote a heartfelt post to her fans via her personal blog. She began, “Because the past shapes the present, I tend to reflect often. Looking back, there were moments when I was lacking, and many times I was convinced I was right when I wasn’t. Still, I try not to be consumed by those things.” She continued, “I always strive to move in a better direction, but life sometimes reminds me of the saying, ‘You may ruin yourself by trying to ape your betters.’ These days, I try to live within my means and capabilities. We can’t always aim for the best or perfection.”
Han So-hee added, “What I can offer is a space where you can occasionally stop by, smile at my messy, unstructured posts and photos, and reflect on your day and mindset through the comments you leave. And if you feel even slightly closer to me through that, then that’s more than enough for me.”
She also noted “I feel like this post got a bit heavy” before sharing glimpses of her daily life. She mentioned “Though I can’t post often, once my film shoot is over and I go on break, I’ll try to communicate more frequently with everyone”, signaling plans for more active interaction with fans.
At the end of the post, she included a photo that drew attention. It was a sign attached to a broken ATM that read, “We apologize for the inconvenience. We will fix the mess as soon as possible.” Accompanied by hashtags like “Pretending to have lived a whole life” and “Trying to teach others when I can’t even help myself”, the image is seen by many as reflecting her current mindset after continuous controversies.
Han So-hee faced scrutiny in March last year when she confirmed her relationship with actor Ryu Jun-yeol, which led to suspicions of a “rebound relationship” (You end or about to end relationship with your girlfriends or boyfriends, and fall in love or date someone in a short time). Her emotional response and indirect remarks aimed at Hyeri, Ryu Jun-yeol’s ex-girlfriend, put her at the center of controversy. Just two weeks after going public, Han So-hee and Ryu Jun-yeol announced their breakup.
Following that, rumors emerged accusing Han So-hee of running a private account that had consistently left malicious comments on Hyeri’s social media. Han So-hee’s agency responded by stating, “The SNS account exposed in the media is not a secondary account belonging to actress Han So-hee.”
