A beloved actress who is in a public relationship has openly shared her honest thoughts on dating and marriage.
On the 12th, the YouTube channel Okiki Okk released a video titled “Characteristics of someone who is dating alone | Anyway, I came to chat.”
In the video, Kinky and Jun Bbang appeared alongside Gabi and Ji Ye Eun, candidly discussing various topics about love, including dating, flirting, and breakups.
The four of them talked about “experiences of getting ahead of oneself” as the theme. When asked about her own experience, Ji Ye Eun revealed without hesitation, “I always do that. If someone treats me even a little bit well, I wonder, ‘Do they like me?’”
When asked how far she imagines the future with someone she’s interested in, Ji Ye Eun said, “I only imagine up to the point of dating.”
In response, Gabi asked, “Do you imagine marriage if you start dating?” Ji Ye Eun firmly replied, “It takes a while. At first, I don’t date with marriage in mind.”
This reveals Ji Ye Eun’s strong view on relationships—that it’s necessary to take the time to get to know each other rather than dating from the start with marriage in mind. She honestly differentiated between the thrill of emotions and the realistic pace of a relationship, expressing her personal standard.
Ji Ye Eun also admitted that in actual dating, she tends to be surprisingly passive.
When asked how she expressed her feelings in past relationships, she confessed, “I couldn’t say anything. I couldn’t even show signs of liking someone. I did nothing.”
When Gabi asked, “Then how did you handle things until now?” Ji Ye Eun answered, “That’s why it takes a really long time. The other person always has to make the first move. I’m shy, and my pride is a bit strong, too.”
Meanwhile, Ji Ye Eun confirmed her relationship with choreographer Vata in April. Born in 1994, the two are the same age and reportedly grew from church friends to a romantic couple.
