In the vibrant world of K-dramas, “Love Next Door” is becoming a phenomenon, propelling Jung Hae-in and Jung So-min to superstar status. Jung Hae-in, with his handsome appearance and captivating acting, has become the new prince of the Hallyu wave. Meanwhile, Jung So-min, with her role as Bae Seok-ryu, has won the hearts of fans.
Since her debut in 2010, the actress has become a famous Hallyu star with projects such as “Playful Kiss”, “Alchemy of Souls”, “Love Reset”, and many others. Jung So Min has shown incredible on-screen chemistry with her male co-stars. Netizens frequently stir up dating rumors about celebrities on social media – Jung So-min has also been caught in rumors involving her co-stars, including Lee Joon and Lee Jae-wook.
The “Love Next Door” actress keeps her personal life private, though she has shared some rare insights about her ideal type. While appearing as a guest on SBS TV’s show My Little Old Boy, Min shared that she hopes to meet a sensitive and caring man. She particularly likes people who communicate gently and respect personal space. “I believe that private time is essential for us to rediscover ourselves and grow emotionally“.
As of now, neither Jung So-min nor her management company has confirmed any dating rumors. She previously had a stable three-year relationship with her co-star from “Father Is Strange”, Lee Joon. She was also rumored to have been in a relationship with her co-star from “Alchemy of Souls”, Lee Jae-wook.
Jung So-min and Lee Joon’s romantic relationship caught attention in the Korean entertainment world. They developed feelings for each other while working together on the family drama “Father Is Strange” in 2017. Their love was confirmed by Jellyfish Entertainment, and the two maintained their relationship even while Lee was fulfilling his military service duties.
Lee Joon spent most of his leave time with Jung So-min, showing his affection and care for her. However, in June 2020, the couple announced their breakup. Sources revealed that they spent a lot of time apart and eventually drifted away. “Ultimately, they decided to focus more on their individual careers,” the source added. Though Jung So-min and Lee Joon’s relationship ended, they remained on good terms and continue to support each other as colleagues.
Although the drama “Alchemy of Souls” didn’t make as big of a splash as expected, it fostered a beautiful friendship among the cast, especially between Jung So-min and Lee Jae-wook. Their chemistry and interaction, both on-screen and off, delighted fans. However, rumors of romance between the two quickly faded as no confirmation followed. Jung So-min’s absence from the sequel of the drama also helped calm the speculations regarding their relationship. Nonetheless, fans continue to cherish the beautiful moments between the two in the show and hope to see them collaborate again in the future.
