Actor Ahn Bo Hyun

• Ahn Bo-hyun, born on May 16, 1988, is a South Korean actor, model, and TV personality affiliated with FN Entertainment.

• His breakthrough came with the TV series "Itaewon Class" in 2020, and he received the Excellence Award for Actor in an OTT Drama at the 8th APAN Star Awards on September 29, 2022, for his performances in "Yumi's Cells" and "My Name."

• He has also starred as the male lead in popular K-dramas such as Netflix's "My Name" (2021), tvN's dramas "Yumi's Cells" (2021-2022), "Military Prosecutor Doberman" (2022), and "See You in My 19th Life" (2023).

After Jisoo's acting debut in the K-drama named "Snowdrop," dating rumors with male lead Jung Hae-In flooded the internet for quite some time.

However, when a reporter brought up the news, the actor had no clue about their relationship and wished them well.

I might be a celebrity myself, but I am not that concerned about other people's dating news. This has been so even before I became an actor. That's why my friends find it a pity. It's because I don't really tell them about any dating news - because I don't have any interest in it...
I hope that they continue to have a healthy and beautiful relationship.
- Jung Hae In
