Netflix’s ‘My Korean Boyfriend’ introduces five Brazilian women who travel to South Korea in search of love. Among them was Luanny Vital, who met Si Won Lee on a dating application. Their bond quickly evolved into a long-distance romance filled with big promises and even bigger expectations. From the beginning, their connection was anything but smooth. Upon her arrival in Seoul, South Korea, Luanny openly admitted that she had fallen for a complicated man, Si Won, whom she met through a dating application. Their connection was profound, yet cracks began to appear quickly. She shared that he was supposed to travel to Brazil to meet her, but the trip never happened.
Luanny and Si Won’s Relationship Was Marked by Continuous Tensions
Luanny Vital revealed that Si Won Lee asked her to borrow money from her friends to cover his airfare, only to keep changing plans at the last minute. She claimed that she was in debt because of him. Still, when they finally met in person, she became emotional. Si Won arrived with flowers and surprised her by bringing a translator so that they could bridge the language gap. Moreover, he expressed his wish to marry her. However, reality soon set in as Luanny raised concerns about the fact that Si Won’s family was unaware of her daughter. There were also financial issues as he spent recklessly, but he promised to take her advice and change. She continued to insist that he should be honest and transparent. Si Won later opened up about his troubled childhood and his parents’ early divorce.

During a house party, Si Won commented that Brazilian women have strong personalities. It hurt Luanny deeply, and Camila quickly called him out on it. That was when he walked away in anger. When Si Won came to her house in episode 3, she told him straight up that their relationship demanded far more effort than he was willing to give. She called his behavior childish and admitted that she wanted an emotionally mature partner. During the tense exchange, he also pushed back that Luanny’s habit of discussing his personal life made him upset. As the conversation unraveled, she revealed a final betrayal that he had allegedly cheated on her with his Turkish friend. Despite the turmoil, Si Won made Luanny understand that they should think about building a future together, leading them to get back together.
Luanny and Si Won Have Seemingly Gone Their Separate Ways
After almost breaking up and getting back together, Luanny and Si Won’s relationship took a turn for the better. She didn’t waste any time reaching out to his mother. During their first meeting, Si Won’s mother was instantly impressed and called her “pretty.” Luanny grew emotional as she revealed that she actually has a daughter, worrying how her partner’s mother would react. Surprisingly, her mother-in-law consoled her, noting that having a child is rather a blessing and she should always take care of her daughter. Finally, when Si Won arrived at the restaurant, his mother gave him and Luanny her blessing. However, as of writing, they no longer follow each other on Instagram. Si Won’s pictures are currently not visible on Luanny’s social media.
While Si Won did share a few glimpses of the good times in January 2026, when he and Luanny spent time in the snow. In one of the pictures, Si Won and Luanny are affectionately kissing the latter’s daughter, with the caption reading, “I wanted to show that we also had a wonderful time.” It is essential to note that they have a shared couple account, which they haven’t updated since February 2025. Their last video together showcases Si Won speaking joyfully and eating a meal in her presence. In January 2026, he issued a public statement stating that he doesn’t want any speculation and has decided to step away from social media to reflect on his life choices. Although there are faint traces of what they once shared, the other signs indicate that their relationship may not have survived beyond the show.
Luanny’s Life is Deeply Rooted in Her Music and Love For Her Daughter
Luanny Vital has carved out her own path, shaped by her resilience and creativity. Currently represented by RME Productions, she has built a notable music career. As a melodious singer and gifted songwriter, she has released several tracks, including her singles and collaborations. Some of their well-known melodious creations include “Some e me Esquece” or “Disappear & Forget Me,” “Magoa do Carai” or “Damn It,” among many others.

Her music is also accessible through her YouTube channel, which has 39.3K subscribers, highlighting her artistry through songs and music videos.
However, at the heart of everything is Luanny’s daughter, Ayla Li, who was born in March 2022. As a single mother, she strives to work harder to provide for her “princess.” Although she feels sad for not spending more time with Ayla, she admits that she never regrets it. Whenever possible, Luanny takes her to amusement parks and the beach, creating lifelong memories. The reality star also maintains a strong relationship with her parents, Beto Santos and Andreza Cristina Vital. Furthermore, friendship is an integral part of her life, which reminds Luanny that despite the hardships, a life can still bloom beautifully.
