A brief yet striking appearance by Ha Ji-soo in the music video for “Paradise of Rumors” has reignited public curiosity, particularly due to her past connection with Lee Chan-hyuk of AKMU. The video, released on April 3 as part of the duo’s upcoming album Blooming, features a whimsical and theatrical concept led by Chan-hyuk and Lee Su-hyun, with Ha Ji-soo appearing among the ensemble cast.
Her inclusion is notable given earlier dating rumors between her and Chan-hyuk, which surfaced in 2023 during his Umbrella project. She had appeared in the music video for “Dance,” where their on-screen dynamic sparked widespread speculation. At the time, both YG Entertainment and SWMP refrained from confirming any personal relationship. Reports now indicate that her latest appearance was arranged independently, without agency coordination, adding intrigue to her continued collaboration with the artist.
Since debuting in Stella Jang’s “I GO” music video in 2018, Ha Ji-soo has steadily built her career through roles in short films and other music video projects. Her distinctive presence has earned her increasing recognition and a growing fan base.
This latest appearance not only highlights her evolving career but also renews interest in her connection with Chan-hyuk, keeping fans engaged as speculation continues.
