Former Heart Signal 3 star Seo Min-jae, now known as Seo Eun-woo, has made headlines once again—this time for revealing that she is pregnant and accusing her boyfriend of abruptly cutting off all contact.

On May 3, Seo shocked followers by posting a series of screenshots from her conversation with her boyfriend, whom she had previously identified by name and age in a now-deleted post that began with the words, “Congratulations on becoming a dad.” While initially appearing like a celebratory pregnancy reveal, the raw emotional tone and specific details quickly led netizens to interpret it as a public exposure driven by heartbreak and abandonment.

“Please Just Respond”: Desperate Texts, No Replies

In the screenshots, Seo desperately pleads with her boyfriend, writing, “Please contact me. How can you just keep avoiding me? How can you be so irresponsible and abandon me while I’m pregnant?”

While the boyfriend eventually responded with a vague promise, “Noona, it was all so sudden; I couldn’t reply right away. My head is spinning. I’ll call you tomorrow so we can talk,” he failed to follow through, deepening her distress.

Seo continued to message him with increasingly desperate pleas:

“Please, save me.”

“You’re really going to keep avoiding me, right?”

“I’m coming to your place, just come outside for a moment.”

“I’ll be there around 2. Just meet me for a bit.”

“Please, just answer me.”

Her vulnerable and painful messages quickly circulated online, sparking concern and dividing opinions among netizens.

From Scandal to Second Chance—and Now Controversy Again

Seo Min-jae originally rose to fame on Heart Signal 3 in 2020, where she became known for her calm demeanor and intelligence. Trained as an automotive engineer, her polished image took a turn when, in August 2023, she and former WINNER member Nam Tae-hyun were sentenced to 10 months in prison (suspended for two years) for methamphetamine use.

Since then, Seo legally changed her name to Seo Eun-woo and has spoken publicly about her recovery journey. She joined a recovery support training program through the Korea Association Against Drug Abuse and enrolled in a combined master’s and doctoral theology program at Sogang University.

Now, with this unexpected pregnancy and alleged ghosting scandal, Seo’s path of rebuilding her life faces yet another challenge. As public interest continues to grow, many are expressing both sympathy and concern over her well-being. For Seo Min-jae, this deeply personal crisis has once again thrust her into the spotlight—but this time with cries for support rather than applause.
