Okay, fellow fans — Ha Ji Won just gave us a whole new chapter to cheer for. On the latest episode of SBS’s My Little Old Boy, she admitted it’s been roughly eight years since her last relationship and revealed she’s preparing for life on her own in a delightful, very Ha Ji Won way.
When host Seo Jang Hoon asked about dating, she answered honestly: “It’s been about 8 years… maybe even longer.” But instead of getting nostalgic, she’s turned things into action: Ha Ji Won announced she’s enrolled in the Culinary & Food Design Department as a “Class of ’26” freshman at her alma mater. She’s genuinely excited about campus life again — meeting classmates, joining clubs, orientation trips — and treating this as a fresh start both personally and creatively.
Even better for fans: this return-to-school journey is doubling as content. Ha Ji Won is launching a YouTube series titled “Class of ’26, This Is Ji Won,” where she’ll document her student life and give us a peek at this new on- and off-screen chapter.
Brief context for anyone catching up:
- Ha Ji Won is a veteran South Korean actress best known for hits like Secret Garden and Empress Ki.
- She has a history of mixing acting with variety/show appearances and now continues that by connecting with fans via her new YouTube series.
It’s such a refreshing move — honest, practical, and totally relatable. Whether you’re here for the cooking content, campus vibes, or just to support her, this feels like one of those heartwarming Ha Ji Won moments we love.
