Introduction: The S16 season competition has officially begun. It is believed that most players have been paying attention to the recent offseason period. Over the past two days, the news of Rookie and Xiao Yu's breakup has become a hot topic discussed by players across the internet. Moreover, the day after the official announcement was Rookie's birthday. Presumably, neither of them anticipated the situation would erupt so intensely. Late at night, industry insiders publicly revealed that there are many suspicious points regarding Rookie's breakup. Additionally, photos suspected to be of Rookie's new girlfriend were released. Their accounts are mutually following each other, and this person sent birthday greetings at midnight, posting a birthday cake photo. This essentially confirms it is the new girlfriend, featuring a standard Korean internet celebrity face.

Rookie's suspected new girlfriend sends birthday cake at the exact moment.

It is believed most players are quite familiar with Rookie. As a top-tier mid-laner in the LPL region, his overall popularity and热度 are very high. During the S8 season, he led the IG team to win the LPL region's first World Championship title, gaining instant fame and solidifying his status as a良心 Korean import player. Over the years, his public image has consistently been dedicated and深情, having been in a nine-year relationship with LPL host Xiao Yu. Suddenly, breakup news emerged, and shortly after, both parties officially announced the split. Rookie also deleted previous posts about their relationship.

Initially thought to be a normal fading of感情, but industry insiders dug deeper, uncovering many interesting scenes. For example, during previous matches, they had moments of heart gestures, likely before officially breaking up. It seems Rookie truly无缝衔接 now. During his birthday,网友 uncovered an account suspected to be his current new girlfriend, and their accounts are following each other. Most importantly, Rookie's birthday was the day after the official breakup announcement, and this suspected girlfriend's account posted a birthday cake photo at the exact moment. Combining all these issues, it is essentially confirmed.

Looking through the new girlfriend's account reveals a standard Korean internet celebrity face. Indeed, in that environment, minor adjustments are common. In terms of figure and appearance, she might be slightly better than Xiao Yu, and likely younger as well. According to网友爆料, both seem to have worn Cartier matching rings, and the new girlfriend might be a wealthy beauty. Notably, this new girlfriend's account posted a hand cream photo as early as December 31, 2025, with the caption: Love everyone, love you more. The packaging标注的花期 corresponds to Rookie's birthday, March 11. Everything likely aligns closely with what大家 think.

The one who should feel最难受 is Xiao Yu.网友 noticed she似乎 still holds some不舍 towards Rookie, frequently logging into her account late at night to check messages. Given many insider revelations接连出现, she probably couldn't sleep. The biggest winner this time should still be Doinb, as he previously had the most disputes with Rookie. However, Doinb不离不弃,最终修成正果 with Tang Xiao You, not abandoning her after gaining fame. Of course, all these消息 and the suspected new girlfriend are网友爆料. Rookie himself has not responded yet. We must wait for the当事人's message to confirm.

Final thoughts:

If this is truly the case, then Rookie's overall public image would completely崩塌. Previously known as a good LPL player and a good man, such an incident occurred. Of course, in such breakups, there is no right or wrong; presumably both sides accepted it, otherwise they wouldn't have posted such messages. The question is when Rookie will officially announce, as爆料人 stated those familiar with Rookie should recognize the fingers in the photo seem to be his.
