She wrote out her honest thoughts.

Actress Jung Yu Mi and Kangta of H.O.T just recently confirmed dating rumors after initially denying it 6 months priors. Their agencies confirmed their relationship, explaining that they started off as colleagues and friends but soon blossomed into a couple.

Jung Yu Mi decided to take matters into her own hands by writing a heartfelt letter to her fans through Instagram.

She uploaded a blank sky-blue photo as she began to explain why she decided to write the letter. She opened up about how after long considerations, she decided to begin dating Kangta and go public.

I recently started a sincere and careful relationship with my good friend and senior.

As I decided to open my heart after thinking it over carefully, I thought it was right for me to convey my thoughts personally through this letter.

Although she may have confirmed the news, she confessed that she was scared of going public with her new romance. But she hopes that it will lead them to a happier future as she thanked everyone who supported the news.

I was careful and worried about announcing publicly about my personal relationships outside of my projects, but I didn’t want to deny something that I chose for myself. Also, dating publicly is very daunting and scary to me, but I also wonder if it may lead to better days thanks to it.

I wanted to tell everyone who always supported me, just how thankful I am for you. I always thank you sincerely.

안녕하세요, 정유미입니다. 오늘 저의 기사에 놀라셨을 주변 분들과 또 저를 응원해주시는 분들께 직접 말씀을 전해드리고자 글을 남기게 됐습니다. 저의 좋은 친구이자 선배였던 분과 최근 들어 진지한 만남을 조심스럽게 시작했습니다. 신중하게 생각하고 마음을 열기 시작했기에 여러분께도 직접 제 마음을 전해 드리는 게 맞는 것 같아서 이렇게 글로나마 전합니다. 작품을 떠나 개인적인 연애 사실을 공개적으로 알리는 부분이 저 역시 조심스럽고 걱정되기도 했지만, 제가 결정하고 선택한 일에 대해서 부정하고 싶지 않았습니다. 또, 한편으로는 공개된 만남을 시작한다는 것이 저에게도 많이 어렵고 두려운 일이지만 어쩌면 더 나은 날들이 될 수 있지 않을까 하는 작은 기대도 키워봅니다. 언제나 응원해주시는 많은 분께 늘 감사드리는 마음을 너무나 크게 가지고 있다고 말씀드리고 싶었어요. 항상 진심으로 감사합니다. 저의 소중한 여러분 모두 오늘 하루도 아픔 없이 웃을 수 있는 날이 되시길 바라며, 이만 줄입니다.

Hello, this is Jung Yu Mi.

I decided to write this in order to personally reach out to everyone who was surprised by today’s news reports and those who have cheered me on.

I recently started a sincere and careful relationship with my good friend and senior.

As I decided to open my heart after thinking it over carefully, I thought it was right for me to convey my thoughts personally through this letter.

I was careful and worried about announcing publicly about my personal relationships outside of my projects, but I didn’t want to deny something that I chose for myself. Also, dating publicly is very daunting and scary to me, but I also wonder if it may lead to better days thanks to it.

I wanted to tell everyone who always supported me, just how thankful I am for you. I always thank you sincerely.

To all my precious people, I hope today will be another day full of smiles and no hurt. And I end the letter here.
