TXT’s Yeonjun Sparks Massive Reactions After Attending Event With Ex-Girlfriend

TXT’s Yeonjun sparked a buzz online after attending the same event as his so-called “ex-girlfriend.”

The controversy began when a video clip showed Yeonjun at the VIP premiere of the film Salmokji: Whispering Water at Lotte Cinema in Seoul. Actress Yang Hye Ji was also spotted at the event, leading fans to believe they were reunited as exes.

Soon after, netizens realized the truth. Yang Hye Ji and Yeonjun had starred together in the JTBC K-Drama Live On. Yeonjun made a cameo as the ex-boyfriend of Yang Hye Ji’s character, Ji So Hyun.
