EXO-Ls may remember Jung Da Eun as EXO Sehun's close friend way back in high school. Since their time together at the School of Performing Arts (SOPA), both the EXO member and Da Eun have grown and flourished in the entertainment industry.
In this article, we delve into Da Eun's path from her beginnings as an idol to her present accomplishments as an actress.
Friendship with Sehun, EXO
Jung Da Eun first caught fans' attention when she appeared in EXO Sehun's graduation photos from SOPA. Her cool personality and easy-going nature quickly won over EXO-Ls.
Da Eun also once named Sehun as one of her close friends, and was often seen interacting with him during music shows. She even grew close to other EXO members, like when she greeted Baekhyun with a wave on stage.
From Idol to Actress
Da Eun initially debuted as a member of the K-pop group 2EYES, but the group disbanded in 2018 due to lack of success. She then transitioned to acting, first appearing in the 2016 film "Derailed."
The Impact of Jealous Fans on Da Eun and Sehun's Friendship
While Da Eun and Sehun enjoyed a close friendship during their high school years, their public interactions have dwindled since Da Eun's debut with 2EYES. Unfortunately, jealous fans targeted Da Eun with hate comments, which significantly affected her.

At one point, Sehun had commented, "You're an angel alright," on one of her Instagram posts where she shared gifts from fans and referred to herself as the "angel of proof shots." However, she had to shut down her Instagram account due to the hateful comments.
Now that Da Eun has reactivated her Instagram account, she no longer follows Sehun, and he does not follow her or anyone else on the platform.
Although the impact of jealous fans has strained their public interactions, it is unclear whether their private friendship has been affected.
