How Han Ji Min and Choi Jung Hoon Met

Actress Han Ji Min and Jannabi’s lead vocalist Choi Jung Hoon recently confirmed their relationship, surprising fans with the revelation of their unique love story. The couple, who are nearly ten years apart in age, officially acknowledged their relationship on August 8, following dating rumours. Representatives from both Han Ji Min’s agency, BH Entertainment, and Choi Jung Hoon’s agency, Peponi Music, confirmed that the pair first met on KBS 2TV’s The Seasons: Choi Jung Hoon’s Night Park and have recently started dating.

Han Ji Min and Choi Jung Hoon’s transition from fan and artist to couple

While their relationship took many by surprise, Han Ji Min’s fans have been quick to point out that she has long been a devoted fan of Choi Jung Hoon and his band, Jannabi. Fans now consider her a “successful fan” who transitioned from being an admirer to becoming the artist’s romantic partner.

Early last year, Han Ji Min frequently attended Jannabi concerts, sharing numerous photos on her social media. Her consistent presence at these performances, combined with her frequent requests for Jannabi songs on radio shows and using their music as background tracks for her posts, showcased her genuine fandom.

In November 2023, during a fan meeting, Han Ji Min sang Jannabi’s “For Hesitating Lovers,” a moment that gained renewed attention following the couple’s announcement. Additionally, BH Entertainment released a vlog on YouTube featuring Han Ji Min and Choi Jung Hoon’s duet on The Seasons: Choi Jung Hoon’s Night Park. In the video, they discussed their personality types, and the actress appeared shy when asked to make eye contact during their duet. “How do singers keep making eye contact? It’s so embarrassing,” she admitted, to which Choi Jung Hoon responded with a bashful smile.

Their chemistry during the duet and Han Ji Min’s visible enjoyment of Jannabi’s concert later in the show didn’t go unnoticed. Fans revisited the duet rehearsal video, with many commenting on how “special the atmosphere was back then” and noting that “they were clearly flirting.”

Even before the official dating news, the couple was spotted together, fueling rumors of their romance. Witnesses saw Han Ji Min and Choi Jung Hoon sitting closely in a restaurant, further sparking speculation that has now been confirmed.
