“Single’s Inferno” Gwan Hee Directly Addresses Relationship Status Between Him And Hye Seon

In his statement, he stated that he needed someone he could meet the person every day, and with Hye Seon returning overseas, he did not think it would work.

First of all, I want to tell you that we are not a couple. To be honest, right after the broadcast, we kept in contact and saw each other during work get-togethers, but I need to be in a relationship where I can meet the person every day. Realistically, Hye Seon will need to go to England soon, and I need to move back to Changwon and focus on my training, so I didn’t think we could be a couple. So we naturally became a relationship where we just ask after each other from time to time.

— Gwan Hee

These words were reflected on by a fan of the show, who questioned his action in a post on an online form. In the post, the OP questioned his motives and why he made that choice if he knew his dating styling.

Fans chimed in on all sides, with some saying the show’s low stakes led the contestants to pick who they liked at the time rather than thinking of relationships after the show.

Some felt his goal on the show was to get more fame and said Hye Seon was the easiest choice to be able to make an easy break. They also feel the show is fake and that no real feelings are involved.

Others said that Gwan Hee very likely had real feelings and was willing to try out a long-distance relationship because of that, even if it didn’t work out in the long run.
