Jung Woo & Kim Yoo Mi reported to be dating, mess ensues

[gloomyclock.livejournal.com]

Things are looking a little messy after news of Jung Woo, Kim Jin and Kim Yoo Mi have been released to the public. Although previous reports stated that Jung Woo and Kim Yoo Mi have been dating for over a year and are planning to wed next year, the couple acknowledged their dating status but denied the length of their relationship and the marriage plans. After the confirmation, ex-girlfriend Kim Jin didn’t seem too happy about the situation.

On November 5, Jung Woo’s agency reps spoke with Newsen and said, “Jung Woo and Kim Yoo Mi are dating. A certain news agency reported that they were dating for about a year but that’s not true. They developed feelings for each other while filming ‘Red Family’ and it’s been about three months since they started dating.”

The rep continued, “They are dating but the plans to marry are not true either. Nothing has been confirmed about the marriage plans so please don’t misunderstand. We hope that the people will view Jung Woo and Kim Yoo Mi’s relationship in a favorable way.”

On the other hand, Jung Woo’s ex-girlfriend Kim Jin doesn’t seem too happy with how things are going.

On October 31, reports were made that Jung Woo and Kim Jin have been dating for over two years. However, Jung Woo quickly denied those claims, stating that they broke up a year ago.

Then, after reports of Jung Woo and Kim Yoo Mi hit the media, Kim Jin posted on her SNS account, “You should have blocked the reports about me. Look how you made me seem when all I did was just stay still. You’re a delinquent and a two-timer. This really isn’t right. We were going to get married but you just broke up with me one-sidedly, driving a nail into my mother’s heart as well. It seemed like you were finally gaining recognition these days so I was going to be loyal until the end but… you really have no loyalty or manners at all.”

On the afternoon of November 5, Kim Jin spoke with SportsSeoul.com and revealed her thoughts and intentions behind that SNS post. She said, “It’s been exactly one year since we broke up. It wasn’t just a light relationship but a serious one. Both of our parents granted us permission to get married.”

“Because I knew his situation at home and how hard he worked for all this time, I stayed quiet even when the dating rumors emerged [between Jung Woo and Kim Yoo Mi]. I thought, ‘Even if I can’t wish them happiness, I shouldn’t be a bother to them.’ I don’t care if he is dating Kim Yoo Mi but if this was how things were going to be, he should have stopped the reports of him and me and kept things clean. That’s why I posted that on my SNS account,” she confessed.

Kim Jin also shared how hard things are for her by saying, “After all these reports of me, Jung Woo and Kim Yoo Mi, I’m having a really hard time. I was really doing well but now when I go outside, people look at me strangely. So I can’t even go out now.”

She continued, “I thought Jung Woo should apologize to me for the situation turning out like this so I texted him but he hasn’t answered me yet. It’s all very unfortunate.”

When asked about what she meant when she wrote “two-timer” on her SNS post, she carefully answered, “That’s only for us to know.” While Kim Jin stated that she and Jung Woo separated ways exactly a year ago, previous reports claimed that Jung Woo and Kim Yoo Mi started dating since over a year ago. However, Jung Woo’s reps recently claimed that it has only been three months since he and Kim Yoo Mi became official.

Note: Kim Yoo Mi was in Heartless City (Jin Sook) & Jung Woo is in Reply 1994.

Guess his big break as the current trend is ruined. Not sure if his agency is actually powerful enough to block reports about his past relationship, but yikes at those allegations that he cheated on her.

Kim Jin doesn't make much sense tbh.She sounds pressed more than anything. Maybe there is some legitimate complains in there but that SNS comment + her little interview do not give her any credibility.

I read somewhere that Yoomi actually denied they were seeing each other. Awkward. I don't know if that's true though.
Sucks for him. I saw Wish (the movie he wrote and starred in - got him the Grand Bell Awards' best new actor) based on his life and it was really good.
He was so shy/awkward on Happy Together.
I like him a lot, I hope he's not a douche. And if he's not I hope he recovers from this.

[bubblyshades.livejournal.com]

I read the same thing re: Yoomi.

Aaah I need to see Wish.

And IA on your last point.

[ceecile.livejournal.com]

I wanted to watch it again last weeek but I can't find it anymore. I saw it on dramacrazy the first time but it's not there now :S

[hearttaek.livejournal.com]

He wrote wish? Then who is this lee seong han person?

[ceecile.livejournal.com]

Director of Wish, he helped Jung Woo turn it into a proper scenario. He had directed him before in Spare (? I think that was it).

[hearttaek.livejournal.com]

Hancinema credits him for the screenplay.
And i cnat find any other info on this movie in english.
Has this been subbed anywhere?

[asnindie.livejournal.com]

Ot but i found this the other day:



An ex was never gonna be nice. And it doesn't make sense that she was supportive till now.

[babyonions.livejournal.com]

This picture is the only relevant thing I see in this post.

[turdferguson.livejournal.com]

somehow trash oppa's face doesn't match his body

[pseudo-shigure.livejournal.com]

huh. it definitely doesn't look like that in '94

[bubblyshades.livejournal.com]

I prefer his current body, tbh. This is a bit too... chiseled for me.

[nortonamo.livejournal.com]

uuumg He is so hot, I'm really appreciating the Jung Woo eye candy in R94

[morgenderper.livejournal.com]

Too bad about that face !

[turdferguson.livejournal.com]

how unfortunate for trash oppa

[skonka.livejournal.com]

Bro was hilarious on LSS so I wish him well.

[xkat-attackx.livejournal.com]

Meh, she just sounds like a pressed ex who got dumped. Lol at her giving interviews and this being an actual news story.

[pseudo-shigure.livejournal.com]

he's really great in '94. i hope this doesn't affect his career.

[bubblyshades.livejournal.com]

I don't understand what's going on. Are they actually dating or is this just rumors?

Not sure what to make of Kim Jin's statements either. If Jung Woo cheated on her, then that really sucks. But if they've been broken up for a year already, what is he supposed to "keep clean"?

[izbetterthanu.livejournal.com]

"driving a nail into my mother’s heart as well"

be more dramatic, i dare you

[julietislimited.livejournal.com]

this was my favorite part.
like girl, calm down this is william shatner level of over dramatic.

[bumie.livejournal.com]

hahaha , I liked that part .

[julietislimited.livejournal.com]

girl you have been broken up for a year, you sound a little pressed.

[lysblack.livejournal.com]

i am going to be that person and say: both women seem incredibly thirst and wanting to take advantage of his newfound fame to their advantage, especially the bitter ex and it feels super shady.

[ceecile.livejournal.com]

Why Kim Yoomi though?

[lysblack.livejournal.com]

because from what i was keeping up with on nate, her/her camp outed their relationship after the scandal with his ex happened/was denied, and his camp didn't seem to know how to respond. (but i may be completely wrong)

i don't think she is evil, but i do think that her agency seem to be thanking advantage of all this.

[ceecile.livejournal.com]

I thought it was the movie prod who leaked it for publicity tbh. So her camp confirmed it? Because I read elsewhere that they denied the relationship. That's why I was confused.

[lysblack.livejournal.com]

honestly, i admit being confused as fuck, yesterday alone, out of the 20 articles trending, at least 7 were jung woo related in this scandal [and others 1994 wise] but what i understood [but i could have easily misunderstood] was that the original scandal showed up, then it got denied and then yumi's one appeared with a "NOPE! she is the actual girlfriend!" her camp agreed and then his camp was all "omg fine what is going on, whatever, yes".

[footballfina.livejournal.com]

meh I'm fully on the Chilbong train anyway

(I literally binge watched all six episodes on Sunday and have decided that while I probably related more to the 97 characters, I'm LOVING the 94 story way way way way way more for some reason)

Ummm...no

[hipployta.livejournal.com]

She confirmed they broke up a year ago...girl it's been too long for you to still be pressed and posting on Twitter like you're a victim of news A YEAR LATER

Honestly for the ex and current girlfriend to be making themselves known while he's on a popularity upswing probably says it all

[porcupinegloves.livejournal.com]

hm i don't get what is the problem, they broke up a year ago and he cleared up the rumors about their relationship, what else did she want him to do

[hearttaek.livejournal.com]

He's a great actor, this bit isnt going to affect his skills.
His popularity maybe, but i definitely admire the fact the he's admitted to being in a relationship knowing the consequences it may have to his current rise to stardom.
But like i said, he's a great actor and people will still want him on their tv screen regardless of his private dating life.
Though from the looks of it, he's done nothing wrong. Girl needs to get over it. She seems out to ruin it for him.

[blue-rin.livejournal.com]

Wow, as someone who's enjoying him immensely in 1994 and was ecstatic about the fact he was becoming huge in Korea everything about this can fuck off. Sorry for the language. What kind of agency is he in that the moment all the media eyes are on him this happens? Like aren't you supposed to block stuff like this?

[hagar-tammaa.livejournal.com]

I love them both I hope all the happiness to hem <333333

(no comment on the jealous ex)

[bumie.livejournal.com]

he is really a good actor I liked him since YTBLSS , I hope this won't affect his career

[canxi.livejournal.com]

Wow, this is getting so crazy. I hope it all blows over. And I haven't even started watching the show, yet. If anything it shows just how popular he is and still is. But, I dunno how serious I would take an ex-girlfriend's statements... :/ Especially if she is giving interviews, that's suspicious...

Also, I don't see what he did wrong to warrant her rant? Sounds like he just told the truth about them breaking up a year ago and even she said they broke up a year ago. So, what? Whaaat? What was he supposed to say?

In other news comments on the internet are saying that this will effect his chemistry with his co-star (Go Ara?) and I just wanna laugh because...guys...acting.

[oppameansit.livejournal.com]

idk in my experience no one calls someone a two-timer unless they were actually cheated on

[wittedxfate.livejournal.com]

at this point in time, whether he did cheat or not, I wouldn't consider it an issue since its been a year ago anyway.
so much denials from each parties so its kind of confusing but seeing that the agency did say yes, I trust their word for it anyway.

oh well, nothing to do but be happy for jung woo!!
he's doing really well rn and I wouldn't mind seeing more of him
