Han So Hee is currently facing online scrutiny after being accused of running a burner account on Instagram. The account was allegedly used to troll Hyeri, sparking widespread speculation. The controversy stems from the fact that Jeon Jong Seo, one of Han So Hee’s close friends, followed the account, and netizens identified the display picture as a photo previously shared by Han So Hee.
Agency Response to the Allegations
In response to the growing allegations, Han So Hee’s agency, 9ATO Entertainment, issued a statement denying the claims.
“Hello. This is 9ATO Entertainment. We wish to deliver our official statement regarding today’s news about Han So Hee. The social media account revealed through the media is not Han So Hee’s account, and in the case that it turns out to be so, we will take legal responsibility. As such, we hope that you will refrain from unverified guesswork. Thank you.”

The wording of the agency’s statement has drawn significant attention, with many netizens finding it unusual. Initially, the statement only mentioned that the account in question was not Han So Hee’s. However, the revision added the clause about taking legal responsibility if the account did turn out to be hers, which raised eyebrows among the public.
Netizens’ Reactions to the Statement
The change in the wording led to suspicion among online users, who voiced their concerns across various platforms. Many questioned why such a conditional phrase was necessary if Han So Hee had no involvement with the account.
Some netizens defended Han So Hee, claiming that if the allegations were false, Hyeri could pursue legal action against the trolls behind the account, allowing her to sue the perpetrators without further complications. Others criticized the agency for being vague in their response, leading to even more speculation and rumors.
Here are some of the most notable comments from theqoo:
- What do they mean by taking legal responsibility…?
- No, if it isn’t true then it isn’t. Why are they being like that? It’s more suspicious… LOL. And if it isn’t true, then the case is totally over. What do they mean by “in the case it turns out to be so?” They’re so weird with their words.
- Normally they will say that if people spread rumors, they will deal with things strongly. Is there any legal responsibility to be taken if her denial is false? Reporters need to leave Hyeri alone and go bark up Jeon Jong Seo’s tree instead.
- If it’s not true then it’s a relief because Hyeri can peacefully sue the haters.
- The company’s working hard to clean poop. All because they took in a celebrity mistakenly…
- But there’s no way of knowing unless Hyeri sues LOL. They’re so pathetic.
- Han So Hee didn’t slander her, so how can the account owner be sued? She denied it already!
