‘Running Man’ Star Shares Details About Her Romantic K-Drama Moment With New Partner

Ji Ye Eun shocks fans by confirming romance with choreographer Vata on Running Man!

The Running Man star didn’t wait for rumors to start. She openly shared her real-life love story mid-episode, even apologizing to longtime “love line” partner Yang Se Chan.

The duo started with a long “talking stage” of two and a half months. But even after going official, they struggled to make things physical. For almost three weeks, Ji Ye Eun said they couldn’t even hold hands.

Everything changed when Vata finally asked,

“Can I hold your hand?”

That moment marked their first true connection.

Ji Ye Eun didn’t stop there. She revealed a sweet moment when she made her cab do a loop just to spend extra time with Vata.

“Vata, Ye Eun, and I practiced together, and I put her in a taxi afterward. But I was clearly too oblivious to what was going on between them.”

That was Ji Suk Jin commenting on the situation.

Ji Ye Eun fired back:

“Yeah, I did a loop around the block and had the taxi take me back. [Ji Suk Jin] just would not leave first!”
