Earlier this year, His Man 2, also known as His Love or Man’s Romance, the second season of Korea’s first LGBTQIA+ dating show aired. The show featured eight gay contestants living together, trying to find love amongst each other.

Yeong Hee also confirmed their relationship status, though the reason it was brought on was not positive.

While on the show, many fans hoped that Yeong Hee and contestant Seon Woo would become a couple. This hope was renewed after Yeong Hee shared a Q&A session on YouTube that featured a cameo from SeonWoo a day before his announcement.

Unfortunately, fans that “shipped” the two seemingly took things too far.

A fan messaged Yeong Hee criticizing him for “tricking” people with his interactions with Seong Woo after the show.  Yeong Hee clapped back at the fan by sharing messages on his story and other details. *Message separated for clarity.

Fan: The day before yesterday, you uploaded a vlog and went to Sunwoo’s shop. Said you weren’t dating, or whatever. And then you posted some lovey-dovey couple pictures. I’m so disappointed. You should’ve just said you were seeing someone back then. Tsk tsk.
Yeong Hee: Would you please organize your thoughts first before sending a rambling message?
Fan: I don’t even care anymore, LMAO.

In the full story, Yeong Hee clarified the timing of his relationship and asked netizens to stop sending hate messages to his partner.

Posting this because there have been a lot of misunderstandings.

1. At the time of the show’s afterparty, we were not dating. (Some people have been DMing me, saying that we’ve tricked everyone.)
2. The PJs we were wearing on the trip are not matching PJs. They’re similar in design, and that’s all. (We were surprised by it, too.)
3. Stop DMing hateful comments to my partner.

— Yeong Hee

We wish the new couple all the best!
