Girls' Generation Sooyoung, "I was hunted by a man in his early 20s in Apgujeong"
Girls' Generation member and actress Sooyoung recently shared a story about being hunted.
On the 14th, Girls' Generation member and actress Sooyoung appeared as a guest on the YouTube channel 'Cho Hyun-ah's Thursday Night'. Revealed ‘20-year active idol… Unraveling the story of being hunted | EP.51 | Cho Hyun-ah's Thursday Night | In a video titled ‘Sooyoung Jo Hyun-ah’, Sooyoung confessed the story of being hunted. On this day, Sooyoung said that she was hunted in Apgujeong early this year or last year. Sooyoung began by saying, "Two men who looked to be in their early 20s were walking towards me holding cell phones. I guess they were asking me to take a picture. I was getting ready."
He continued, "He said it was his first time, and I thought, 'I guess this is my first time asking a celebrity to take a picture.' (But) he said, 'If you don't mind, please give me your phone number.' He put on his mask and took it down and said, 'Yes?' and he steadfastly said, 'Excuse me.' 'If that doesn't work,' he said. The friend next to him said, 'I can assure you, he has never asked a woman for her contact information even once.'" Even though she took off her mask, she couldn't recognize her as Girls' Generation's Sooyoung. When the other person asked for her phone number, Sooyoung replied, “I’m sorry, but I have a boyfriend.” The other person, who thought it was a rejection comment, asked how long the relationship had lasted, and Sooyoung added, "I said, 'Me? 10 years,' and from that person's perspective, it probably sounded like something I was saying to Jang Do-yeon to make her laugh when she was talking about hunting."
Suyeong, who was reminiscing about that time, said, "I said, 'That's Girls' Generation's Sooyoung,' but I refused because I was afraid of the child's embarrassed reaction and the possibility of him saying, 'Who is this?' I didn't know until the end." Jo Hyun-ah, who heard this, said, "Rather than Girls' Generation's Sooyoung, I thought you were a tall and pretty girl and thought you were around the same age. But you're not the same age and you debuted in 2002. I've been active for 20 years, but I haven't seen you even once. “I’m in my early teens. It must have felt really good,” Sooyoung answered, “I felt really good.” In addition, Sooyoung and Jo Hyun-ah also told the story of how their relationship began. Two people of the same age. Jo Hyun-ah said, “I shared how to take pretty pictures on SNS,” and Sooyoung burst into laughter, saying, “Hyuna showed me that she just started using Instagram, but the feed was a mess.” In response, Jo Hyun-ah emphasized, "After that, I was inspired and deleted about 2,000 photos. So now there are less than 100." “I really like Shinbi,” Sooyoung said to Jo Hyun-ah, “Don’t post anything for a week before the official big schedule.”
