Yoo Hye-won expresses frustration over recurring dating rumors with Seungri

Influencer Yoo Hye-won has spoken out about dating rumors that "follow like a label" following news that Seungri completed his marriage registration on the 28th to a non-celebrity woman. Since 2018, Yoo has been linked to the former BIGBANG member in three separate rumors, including reports of a meeting in Bangkok after his release from prison in February 2023.

As news broke that Seungri has legally married a non-celebrity woman in her 20s, attention is also shifting toward Yoo Hye-won, who was previously linked to him in three separate dating rumors.

According to media reports, Seungri completed his marriage registration on the 28th, and his wife is expected to give birth early next year.

Seungri did not hold a separate wedding ceremony and stated that he has no plans to hold one at this time.

Yoo Hye-won is currently active as an influencer, sharing her daily life through social media.

She continues her activities in the field, such as introducing contact lenses and beauty products and sharing news regarding discount events and group purchases.

Since 2018, Yoo Hye-won has been embroiled in three dating rumors with Seungri.

The first rumor surfaced in 2018 when a Taiwan media outlet released photos of the two together; at the time, both sides did not officially acknowledge a relationship.

In 2020, dating rumors were raised again when an individual presumed to be Yoo Hye-won was spotted in a vehicle at the time of Seungri's military enlistment.

Following Seungri's release in February 2023 after serving a one-year and six-month prison sentence on nine charges, including facilitating prostitution, a third dating rumor emerged with reports that the two spent time together at a hotel in Bangkok, Thailand.

During this process, the label "okbaraji"—implying she supported him during his imprisonment—was attached to Yoo Hye-won, though the two have never officially confirmed a relationship.

Yoo Hye-won also shared her thoughts on dating and marriage while appearing on the Mnet dating reality program "Couple Palace 2" in 2025.

At that time, regarding the past dating rumors, she expressed a desire for an ordinary romance, stating, "It follows me like a label," and she voluntarily left the program before the final selection.

Meanwhile, Seungri debuted as a member of BIGBANG in 2006 but left the group and retired from the entertainment industry following the Burning Sun scandal in 2019.

He was subsequently sentenced to one year and six months in prison on nine charges, including facilitating prostitution and habitual gambling, and was released in February 2023.
