South Korean actress Kim Hee-ae recently shared insights into her off-screen life and professional relationships at the production presentation for the upcoming Coupang Play variety show, 'Bonjour Bakery.' The event, held in Myeongdong, provided a platform for the cast and crew to discuss the new program, which centers around a unique 'senior dessert cafe' run by elderly individuals.

During the press conference, Kim Hee-ae was asked about her personal activities, and she revealed that she had recently attended a play starring actor Kim Seon-ho during her time off. This revelation sparked interest, given the public's awareness of Kim Seon-ho's career trajectory and his return to public activities following past controversies.

However, Kim Hee-ae was quick to manage expectations regarding the closeness of her relationship with Kim Seon-ho. She clarified that while she did attend his theatrical performance, stating, "I went to see Kim Seon-ho's play on my day off, but we are not that close," she emphasized that their connection is not particularly intimate. This statement aims to provide a factual account of her actions without implying a deeper personal bond, reflecting a professional and respectful distance often maintained in the entertainment industry.
