Many defended the actor, saying it was an accident.
Actor Jung Hae In has received mixed reactions after his recent social media activity linked to BLACKPINK‘s Jisoo.
When they both starred in Snowdrop, netizens loved the friendship and chemistry between Jisoo and Jung Hae In, whether it was for press conferences or interviews, and after the show finished, he attended a BLACKPINK concert.
Recently, the actor gained attention after he was spotted following a “Haesoo” account on Instagram, which is the ship name of Jung Hae In and BLACKPINK’s Jisoo, an account celebrating their friendship.
When the account noticed what happened, they couldn’t hide their excitement and shared their feelings about the interaction.
Quickly, it seemed like Hae In realized what had happened and unfollowed the account.
Sadly, while the Instagram of the OG account was full of netizens loving the unexpected interaction, with some joking that maybe Jung Hae In was “hinting” at a relationship, it seems like many Jisoo fans weren’t happy with the actor’s actions.
When a tweet about it was shared…

Others defended the actor, saying that he probably gets tagged in a lot of things and accidentally clicked it, which led to the follow and then unfollow.
you cant expect much from a man who even struggles to start an ig live tho 😭. given he gets tagged on every possible haesoo posts, he might've just misclicked it

I don't even know why he is getting hate for this?Fan pages do tag him so maybe by mistake he followed it.Don't talk like you know him personally to say he is doing it purposely.Please let Jisoo have friends just leave her and people related to her alone.

It was most likely an accident, but the hate that Hae In received surprised many fans as the friendship between the two was always loved.
