On June 5, KST, reports of Cha Seo Won marrying his ex-costar Uhm Hyun Kyung were made public. Uhm’s agency Yeojin Entertainment, confirmed the news the same day, adding that the couple is also expecting a child. The two met while filming the MBC drama The Second Husband and apparently have been in a serious relationship for a long time.

In any other scenario, this news would have been an occasion for celebration, both for the stars and their fans. But, for Cha Seo Won, it’s proven the opposite. The actor played the main lead in an ongoing drama, Unintentional Love Story, which fans feel is being negatively affected because of his marriage announcement. Since this is a BL(Boy Love) drama as well, the impact of his marriage announcement is seemingly even harsher.

Fans flocked to the actor’s social media, expressing their concern and frustration over the timing of this announcement. Some pointed out that Cha also enlisted in the military right after the drama premiered. Now, with this upcoming wedding, they feel the project will suffer again.

• “Live in the reality…Ugh.”
• “Do you think he’s really gay because he did a BL drama? LOL. Really, why are you guys being so difficult like that?”
• “F*ck, so what if he did a BL? Drama is drama…”
