On June 18, Hyeri attended a press conference for her upcoming Netflix show, Agents Of Mystery. The event, which also featured stars Lee Yong Jin, John Park, Lee Eun Ji, Kim Do Hoon, and Karina, took an unexpected turn when a reporter asked Hyeri about the controversies in her personal life.
Reports indicate that this press conference marked Hyeri's first public appearance following a very public feud with Han So Hee and Ryu Jun Yeol.
The controversy ignited when Hyeri accused Ryu Jun Yeol of leaving her for Han So Hee. This accusation stirred significant media attention and fan reactions, making Hyeri's personal life a topic of public debate.
When confronted with a question regarding the ongoing controversy, Hyeri appeared visibly shaken. She hesitated before responding, indicating her discomfort with the topic. Hyeri eventually said:
"To be honest, I don't think I can answer... I don't think I have an answer for you. I would like if you focused on Agents Of Mystery. I had so much fun filming it."
Her response, marked by apparent distress, quickly went viral. The clip of Hyeri's reaction has been widely shared across social media platforms, sparking conversations among fans and the media.
Despite the unexpected question, Hyeri emphasized her desire for the focus to remain on her new project, Agents Of Mystery. The Netflix show has generated significant anticipation, and Hyeri expressed her enjoyment in the filming process, hoping to shift the narrative back to her professional work.
Meanwhile, in an Instagram post Hyeri of Girl's Day apologized for the distress caused by her past actions and revealed that she and Ryu Jun Yeol had intended to discuss their relationship further post-breakup, but never did. She was blindsided by his new relationship.
Her candid revelation received widespread support from netizens, highlighting societal double standards and sparking discussions about the emotional toll of public scrutiny on celebrities.
