On April 25, Kim Goeun — a rising influencer who gained attention through Single’s Inferno — uploaded a new video on her YouTube channel, where she candidly opened up about her past dating experiences. The video quickly drew attention online, especially as she revealed for the first time that she had gone through both a rebound relationship and being ghosted.

In the video, Kim Goeun joins her friends in a relationship-themed “balance game,” discussing different romantic scenarios. The lighthearted format gradually transitions into deeper, more personal conversations, allowing her to share stories she had previously kept private. When asked a controversial question — “Which is worse: being ghosted or being replaced by someone else?” — she answered without hesitation: ghosting is far worse.

According to her, the key difference lies in clarity. Being replaced may be painful, but at least it provides an explanation. “You know the reason,” she explained. “You can get angry, you can curse at them, you can process it.” Ghosting, on the other hand, leaves nothing but confusion. There is no closure, no explanation — just silence. “You don’t know what happened. You worry about them, you overthink everything, and they just disappear,” she said, highlighting the emotional toll it can take.

Kim Goeun went on to reveal that her perspective is shaped by personal experience. She has been on the receiving end of both situations — including being part of a rebound relationship, where she later realized she was filling a temporary emotional gap for someone else. Even more painful, she shared that the person who ghosted her also quickly moved on to another partner, intensifying her sense of being discarded.

Her honest and vulnerable confession resonated with many viewers, particularly those who have experienced similar situations. Online reactions suggest that ghosting is widely seen as not only hurtful but also deeply unsettling, as it leaves behind unanswered questions and emotional uncertainty that can linger long after the relationship ends.

In addition to her dating revelations, Kim Goeun had previously made headlines due to dating rumors involving G-Dragon of BIGBANG. At the time, his agency denied the rumors, clarifying that the two were simply close friends. Despite the denial, the speculation sparked widespread discussion across social media.

With this latest video, Kim Goeun presents a more personal and relatable side of herself. Rather than making bold statements, she shares her experiences in a sincere and reflective way — offering insight into modern dating struggles while quietly prompting viewers to reconsider how people treat each other in relationships.
