In the ninth episode of MBN’s talk show“Falling for Korea – Transnational Couples”, Super Junior’s sub vocalist and sub rapper Heechul admitted that video games became the reason for ending one of his past relationships.
The K-pop idol recalled a time in his dating life when he was in the middle of playing a co-op video game when his girlfriend suddenly called to meet up at 9 p.m.. Heechul had been playing with 24 other players at that time, which is why he decided to carry on with their boss raid instead of canceling and seeing his girlfriend.
The incident became the reason for their breakup, immediately ending their dating relationship.
The Super Junior member immediately reasoned out and appealed that he only received a day’s worth of rest every week at that time, which is why he chose video games over his girlfriend.
He did not really reveal the name of his now ex-girlfriend in the narrative, but some fans are speculating that the girl might be Twice’s Momo.
Momo and Heechul were publicly dating for a year and a half before they finally ended their relationship last July. The official reason for their breakup remains unknown.
