Former professional golfer Park Se-ri mentioned her boyfriend from her playing days.
On the 6th, the tvN STORY variety show ‘What’s the Point of Leaving’ featured friends Hwang Chi-yeol, Park Ji-hyun, and Kim Poong. Special MC Jang Seo-hee joined them.
On this day, when the topic of dating came up, Park Se-ri caught attention by saying, “I had a boyfriend throughout my golf career.”
She also revealed, “When I was really famous, I hated it when people whispered, ‘She’s not training and is dating instead’ if my performance wasn’t good. I had a boyfriend for a long time, but I couldn’t hold hands comfortably or anything like that.” She added, “If I have a boyfriend now, I would walk around holding hands.”
At this point, Lee Young-ja remarked, “There haven’t been many publicized boyfriends of Park Se-ri. There’s only one.” The person who was rumored to have dated Park Se-ri in the past is Lawrence Chen, a Hong Kong-American billionaire heir. Lawrence Chen is known to be the child of a financial family in Hong Kong.
Park Se-ri indirectly stated, “He was capable,” and Lee Young-ja jokingly asked, “Did you date him for his money?” Park Se-ri responded, “I didn’t ask him out; he approached me first. I said, ‘Okay, I’ll go out with you,’” and added, “Thanks to him, my English improved quickly.”
