CNBLUE’s Yonghwa reveals that his ex two-timed him

CNBLUE’s Jung Yonghwa shared a painful love story from his past that resembled the one B2ST’sKikwang shared on the same episode of “Night After Night“.

Yonghwa began, “I had a girl I really liked, so I made my moves on her.”

He continued, “I held her hand and after confirming her feelings for me, we were basically dating. I hadn’t asked her to be my girlfriend yet, but I was about to. One day, I came across her minihompy and saw that she had a boyfriend. Despite that, she acted like she liked me.”

He added, “I texted her saying, ‘How could you do this?’, and she just texted me back saying, ‘I’m sorry.’”

Yonghwa mused, “I could’ve asked her about her relationship with him, so I felt stupid for yelling at her. I was mad about the fact that I couldn’t contact someone I liked.”

A long time after, he found out that she broke up with her boyfriend and that she wanted to start anew with him, but his feelings were too hurt from last time to have the heart to try again.

It seems like these idol boys have had their hearts broken many times before.
