Super Junior's Shindong And Model Girlfriend Break Up Due To 'Overwhelming' Attention

It seems public scrutiny proved too much to handle for Super Junior's Shindong and his girlfriend, model Kang Shi Nae, as they have ended their romantic relationship, reports Koreaboo.

The breakup occurred in the same month that the relationship was made public in April 2014 and was belatedly revealed in a recent interview with Kang Shi Nae.

"After the initial reports on the dating, the amount of attention that fell on us was overwhelming so we decided to just go each other's way with our blessings," the model admitted in an interview.

Shindong enlisted in the military last March together with fellow Super Junior member Shindong. Both were assigned as part of a military band, but in separate units. Shindong joined the 55th division military band in the headquarters while Sungmin is serving in the 17th division military band stationed at Bucheon, Gyeonggi-do.

While the breakup news may have brought sadness to Shindong fans, they can take comfort in the fact that Super Junior has recently won the International Artist Award at the 2015 Teen Choice Awards, beating the likes of other K-Pop heavyweights like Girls' Generation and 2NE1 as well as the British pop phenom One Direction. As a cherry on top, the Super Junior fandom ELF also won the Choice Fandom award.
