Kim Go-eun and Byun Yo-han have long faced dating rumors, but neither has openly addressed their relationship. Speculation resurfaced recently, sparking mixed reactions among fans. In 2013, reports suggested they had developed romantic feelings while studying at K-ARTS, where their relationship was considered an “open secret” among students. Despite their busy film schedules, they were said to have supported each other like any typical campus couple.
At the time, Kim Go-eun’s agency denied confirming their relationship, stating they were just close university acquaintances.
Netizens reacted with mixed opinions, ranging from shock and curiosity to indifference.
- This is real??
- I remember seeing those texts…
- Was that when they were still students..? It does seem like it
- She’s so famous for this
- I was so turned off from those texts ㅠ
- It’s my first time hearing this.
- Byun Yo-han released these by accident right? Was it when they were both university students?
- I’m more shocked that she used to date Shin Ha-kyun
