Former EXO member Lu Han admitted publicly that he is romantically involved with Chinese actress Guan Xiatong. However, several fans also doubted the celebrity's move especially now that the couple will be starring in a new drama series together.
Lu Han took to his Twitter on October 8 and posted on his Weibo saying, "Hello everyone. Let me introduce my girlfriend to you" along with a photo of the actress.
Guan Xiatong replied to the post with a heart and the same post was also reblogged by Luhan's agency. His post has been liked more than 4.8 million times and had drawn more than 2.3 million comments.
China's version of Twitter, Sina Weibo reportedly crashed after he announced about his new girlfriend and opened discussion among his fans, a Chinese media reported.
Guan Xiatong is a popular actress, who is also known as Traey Miley, is a 20-year-old actress in China. She is known as the "Nation's Daughter" and is regarded as one of the "Four Dan actresses of the post-90s Generation."
Fans were shocked upon the announcement of the former EXO member, especially that they are not used to the former Korean idol member date and expose his relationship publicly. Despite this, fans were supportive of him.
However, others also took notice that this might just be a publicity stunt as the couple will be starring in the upcoming drama series titled "Sweet Combat."
For now, Lu Han and Guan Xiatong are yet to comment about this publicity stunt issue.
