On May 13, an X (formerly Twitter) user who revealed they were an employee of the Japanese film distribution company Elles Films shared an anecdote about meeting actor Ryu Jun Yeol at the Cannes Film Festival.
The user stated, “I met Ryu Jun Yeol, who seemed to be there as a buyer. When I mentioned I had previously distributed a Korean film, he asked me which one.”
However, they confessed they were hesitant in revealing the movie, as it starred Han So Hee, the actress who was caught up in a dating controversy with him.
When I mentioned it was ‘Heavy Snow,’ he responded, ‘Of course I know! It’s a Han So Hee movie! It was really funny.

In the photo posted by the user, he is seen wearing a Cannes Film Festival press pass around his neck and smiling brightly.
However, netizens were appalled that he would continue to bring her up even after the scandal.
