On March 22, reports revealed that actors Kim Go Eun and Shin Ha Kyun have broken up after dating publicly for approximately eight months.
A representative from their agency said, “The pair broke up around late February. They drifted apart due to their busy schedules. They will remain colleagues.”
The actors were previously confirmed to be dating in June 2016 as they bonded through their shared interest in skin diving. The pair gained attention for their 17-year age gap as Kim Go Eun was born in 1991 while Shin Ha Kyun was born in 1974.
Following reports of Kim Go Eun and Shin Ha Kyun’s recent breakup, rumors about Kim Go Eun breaking up with Shin Ha Kyun because of Gong Yoo have been brought up once again. Previously, rumors first arose when Kim Go Eun and Gong Yoo were filming “Goblin.”
A source from Kim Go Eun’s agency addressed the rumors and said, “There are suspicions about her relationship with Gong Yoo but it’s not true.”
The source continued, “They just worked together through a drama. Her breakup with Shin Ha Kyun was because of her schedule and not because of someone else.”
The president of Gong Yoo’s agency previously addressed the rumors through his personal Instagram and said, “Creating rumors about things that are not true and things that did not happen like this and that. Who is scribbling so preposterously. There’s no truth, but there are rumors. And a lot of it.”

Date: 2017-03-24 06:10 pm (UTC)I know this is going to sound HORRIBLE, but praise the lord they broke up. I can't with these young girls dating these old guys. And even worse, these older guys preying on these younger girls...seriously. STOP. When you have almost two decades between you...there's seriously a big NO there.
You can do better, KGE!

Date: 2017-03-24 09:41 pm (UTC)NP! I was going to make one a few days ago and forgot. She's a year younger than me and I cannot fathom dating someone his age. If someone is closer to my parents' age than mine, that's a huge no.

Date: 2017-03-24 11:35 pm (UTC)(the whole preying thing is more so aimed at older guys who go for 18/19 year olds, like you said. aka Sulli and Choiza).
¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Date: 2017-03-25 06:27 am (UTC)However I'm not trying to diminish the fact that theres is an issue with pedophilia and infantilization (especially in the asian community), its just that I don't see that here in this relationship.
Personally I like older men and not just a few years older (my personal limit is about ten years older). I'm 22 but I'm at the point in my life where I want someone grounded,able to express what they want and have legitamate goals in life. I hate playing childish mind games with relationships so I need someone that will give me those things. Not to say I haven't met mature guys my age its just that more times than not they are older

Date: 2017-03-24 11:58 pm (UTC)i feel the same tbh. i get love is love, some people are just more mature, they're adults, etc but i definitely think that dating around your age can bring a more equal and relatable dynamic to the relationship
