Lee Jae Wook, an actor, and Karina, a member of aespa, have formally broken up. After becoming public with their romance—which caused a ‘dating apology’—five weeks later, the couple decided to end their relationship. The psychological toll of the hate remarks was the deciding factor in the breakup, according to a story exclusively published by Tenasia.
The news of the breakup has been confirmed by C-JeS Studios, the agency that represents actor Lee Jae Wook. The agency informed SPOTV that Lee Jae Wook ended the relationship so he could concentrate on his current film projects. Both will continue to be helpful coworkers.

They will continue to engage their followers in positive activities through their own channels going forward, the statement continued. If you’re interested, please express your support.
Their relationship was confirmed on 27 February. Both performers’ agents quickly verified the report. According to reports in South Korean media, Karina and Lee Jae Wook broke up due to the emotional toll of dealing with the hate speech they endured after coming out as a couple.
For their followers who got caught up in the controversy, the pair felt guilty as well. Karina had already sent an open letter of apology to her “unhappy” followers, who were so displeased with the way the dating news spread that they began a boycott movement.
Writers’ P.O.V: Actually, fans should also know how to behave and not to interfere in celebrities’ relationships. Because everyone has the right to love someone or be with them. As a fan, we should support them. Posting hate comments or malicious comments will only hurt celebrities which is not worth it.
We should not hate someone until they break up, it is not good for anyone whether it’s a famous couple or normal. No need to take it at heart or feel offensive. For more updates join us on our Twitter account.
