Bang Si Hyuk Caught In The Crossfire As Juice Seyeon’s Boyfriend Reveal Sparks Ridicule

News of “racy” streamer Juice Seyeon confirming her relationship with fellow streamer K quickly spiraled into an unexpected direction online—dragging Bang Si Hyuk into the center of the conversation.

While the couple publicly acknowledged their relationship through a joint livestream, openly showing affection and sharing details about how they began dating, many netizens appeared less interested in the romance itself and more focused on how they even came to know Juice Seyeon in the first place.

A significant portion of reactions bluntly credited Bang Si Hyuk for her visibility, with some sarcastically remarking that they “would have never known these people” without him. Others mocked the situation outright, joking that Bang Si Hyuk must be “heartbroken” now that she is dating someone else.

• So what about Si Hyuk and Mansik then??
• Looks like Bang’s gonna cry.
• In the streaming world, dating scandals affect female streamers way worse so I have no idea why she’s acting like that… Whatever, do what you want.
• I don’t like either of them, but honestly I feel like Seyeon deserves better.
• I came in thinking it was the idol K and I was so shocked lol… Who even is this Seyeon;;
• Her expression in the second photo looks really bad. Should we be worried?
• Wait I thought it was Lovelyz’s Kei so I clicked in shocked; I only know that Kei.

Confusion also dominated the comment sections, with many users repeatedly asking who both Juice Seyeon and K even are. Some admitted they clicked out of curiosity, thinking the “K” in question referred to entirely different celebrities, including K-Pop idols from established groups.

• Oh?? So she wasn’t dating Hitman Bang? LOL. Anyway, hope they’re happy.
• I’ve seen Bang Si Hyuk and Juice Seyeon before, so I came to see who K is… but I still don’t know…
• This reminds me of some guy LOL.
• These are people I would’ve never known in my life… Bang Si Hyuk really did something.
• Isn’t Juice Seyeon Bang Si Hyuk’s? LOL.
• Who?
• Si Hyuk, are you okay?

At the same time, others took a more dismissive stance, questioning why the relationship was receiving widespread coverage at all. A few comments described the couple as “well-matched,” though often in a backhanded or indifferent tone.

• Who even are these people that their relationship is getting press?
• LOL they actually are perfect for each other.
• Is Bang crying right now…?
• The girl looks so sad though.
• Ok.
• I bet he’s sobbing right now.
• Lmao this is so sad.

Despite the mixed—and often cutting—reactions, Juice Seyeon addressed the situation directly, apologizing to fans for the delayed announcement and confirming she is “doing well while meeting someone good.” She also revealed plans to return to streaming later this week.

Hello, I’m writing this because I think many of you were surprised by the recent news.

I feel like I should have told you first, but since I was taking a break from streaming, some of you may have heard about me through my boyfriend’s broadcast first, and for that, I am sorry.

So I thought it would be right for me to speak directly through this notice. I’m currently doing well while seeing someone good. I know how much you’ve always supported me and waited for me, so I ended up being more cautious, which made this announcement a bit late.

And I’ll be returning with a broadcast this Wednesday. Since it’s been a while, I’ll prepare well so you can get the best version of me!! I’ll also try harder to communicate with more fans moving forward! Thank you always for your support.

— Juice Seyeon
