Fun Facts about Super Junior Yesung
Love Life of Super Junior Yesung
At the present time, Super Junior Yesung is known to be single. There’s no news about his recent dating activities, or he just cleverly hides it from the public, since he hates to show off his relationships, especially after a fellow member’s statement. He used to date a pretty girl, as reported by a fan’s cafe discussion. Let’s check Super Junior Yesung’s ex-dating story!
Shin Sol-ki
Super Junior Yesung was known to be close with this girl, Shin Sol-ki (born on January 31, 1986) during his pre-debut days. Many people assumed that she was Yesung’s ex-girlfriend since the two looked very close together. Shin Sol-ki herself is a South Korean model and ulzzang (favorite face in Sout Korea). In 2004 it had been reported that they have broken up and are both focusing on their careers.
After School So-young
After making his debut, Yesung had been reported dating So-young, the female idol from After School, and this claim had been backed up by some evidence. According to the fans’ discussion, Yesung and So-young were dating in 2008 and broke up in 2009. In Super Junior’s “Sorry Sorry” MV, Yesung was seen wearing a cross necklace. The necklace was a gift from So-young! And now, they are known to be very good friends who support each other as colleagues in the entertainment industry. So-young also even promoted Yesung’s cafe The Handel and Gretel, by posting her photos on her Twitter account. She said, “after the photoshoot, I visited Yesung’s coffee shop The Handel and Gretel. This is a pretty shop which sells the best drinks! I took the pictures inside the car because there were too many people at the shop. Best wishes for Yesung!” Regardless of who Yesung’s ex-girlfriend is, Yesung has confessed on MBC’s Radio Star that he was being cheated by some of his ex-girlfriends! Yesung revealed, “A girl I once dated cheated on me with five other people. I got really angry and thought she would stop. But I think cheating becomes a habit,” and then he continued, “A girl I dated before my debut also cheated on me.” This statement was really shocking to everyone because how can a man like Yesung ever be cheated! Super Junior Heechul jokingly replied, “I think Yesung needs to visit Healing Camp,” causing everyone to burst into laughter.
