She wrote, “I was fraught with many different emotions that I was experiencing for the first time and was also reaching extreme limits in terms of my physical health. I was also disappointed in myself for saying something I didn’t mean. As all of these became convoluted, I was unable to maturely control my emotions.”
Gyu-Ri mentioned that she apologized to Min-Woo and Si-Eun in person after the filming of Single’s Inferno 3 ended. The pair was not only understanding but instead more worried about Gyu-Ri’s condition during their meeting.
The reality TV star said, “I deeply apologize again to the many fans who treasured Si Eun and Min Woo, and to the viewers who have loved Single’s Inferno, for upsetting you with how I appeared on the show. I will look back on myself and deeply reflect on myself using this matter, and grow to become a better person, taking this opportunity to make the effort until I become a more mature person.”
All three seasons of Single’s Inferno are available for streaming on Netflix.
