Actress Jeon Hye-bin spoke about the recent status of her colleague, Seo Hyun-jin.

On the 11th, Jeon Hye-bin released a short video titled "What Two Oh Hae-youngs Do When They Meet (Jeon Hye-bin & Seo Hyun-jin)" on her YouTube channel.

That day, after being asked, "What do you talk about when the two Oh Hae-youngs meet?", Jeon Hye-bin mentioned her close relationship with Seo Hyun-jin and stated, "At first, we had really good conversations about travel. I truly love traveling. Especially traveling to remote areas."

She continued, "Now, when we meet for about three hours, we talk about health for two hours and 45 minutes," adding, "We say things like what we should eat or which supplements we should take."

Jeon Hye-bin noted, "Especially given the nature of our profession, don't we use a lot of emotions? In Hyun-jin's case, when I watch from the side, if she gets so immersed in an emotion, she really dives into it and her body comes along with it. If she is sad, her entire body hurts. Many actors have this occupational illness," adding, "Because they do a lot of difficult acting, their health has deteriorated significantly, so they pay great attention to their well-being."

Previously, on the 6th, according to Supreme Court court auction information and other sources, the auction for a multi-family house in Cheongdam-dong with an exclusive floor area of 117.79 square meters, where Seo Hyun-jin had resided under a jeonse lease, was resumed. It was reported that after the appraised value of 2.87363 billion won failed to find a buyer three times, the minimum bid price dropped to 1.47129 billion won.

Seo Hyun-jin deposited 2.5 billion won in April 2020 and moved into the house, establishing a jeonse right. Two years later, upon renewing the contract, the deposit increased to 2.625 billion won. However, it is known that she did not receive her money back even after the contract ended in April 2024, and she vacated the property in September 2024 after going through the tenant right registration process.

As the deposit was not returned, the auction process eventually began. The appraised value, which started at 2.87363 billion won, fell to about half of the appraisal as it failed to find a buyer three times in a row. Subsequently, the process paused for a while due to the landlord's push for rehabilitation in July 2025, but resumed after the landlord was declared bankrupt in December 2025.

Seo Hyun-jin is known to have secured priority rights on the registry. However, the actual amount she can recover varies depending on specific rights relationships, such as the final winning bid price, auction costs, and distribution order. If the property is sold at the current minimum bid level, it may be difficult to cover the full deposit of 2.625 billion won with just the sale proceeds. It is also expected that whether additional recovery of the amount not returned in the auction will occur will be determined based on factors such as right of opposition, the rights relationship under the lease contract, and the auction results.

Meanwhile, Seo Hyun-jin will resume her acting career with MBC's new Friday-Saturday drama "Liar," which airs for the first time on the 30th.
