Korean heartthrob Park Seo Joon finds himself under the scrutiny of international fans amidst swirling dating rumors with American actress Lauren Tsai.

While it's not uncommon for rumored partners of Korean celebrities to face criticism, it's striking that Park Seo Joon is the one drawing flak from international quarters.

A recent image of the pair surfaced on TikTok, sparking a wave of support for Lauren while casting shadows on Park Seo Joon.

There were many moments where my heart raced, but it was an hour where I stayed focused and did my best."
