In a recent live, it was possible to see the device password, which would be Woo Jinyoung’s birthday, and an image in the photo gallery, which would be a blond boy. Fans considered the possibility of a relationship between the two, which prompted the agency to comment.
“Not true. The two are not close to each other on any personal level. A lot of rumors have spread due to the video of your cousin being exposed on V Live and we want to make sure no one else is affected by this, so we wanted to act quickly. We apologize for the confusion”, says the statement.
In other related news, this week, worth mentioning, BTS agency Big Hit Music also spoke out about rumors of a relationship between Jungkook and South Korean actress Lee Yu-bi.
The rumors emerged after a YouTuber focused on content about K-Pop published a video about the alleged dating. The record says 22-year-old JK is the “ideal type” of Lee Yu-bi, who likes “men with pretty eyes“.
She, would be a big fan of the singer and started to use purple hearts (a BTS trademark) on her Instagram, in addition to following his older brother. The two would also be wearing the same clothes and accessories. Because of this, last Monday, December 27th, the agencies of the two issued statements. Y-Bloom Entertainment, responsible for Lee Yu-bi’s career, said it’s a rumor.
“The news about Lee Yu-Bi and Jungkook dating makes no sense . They’ve never seen each other in person and don’t know each other. Among BTS members, Lee Yu-Bi met Suga but that was a long time ago. We don’t even know if they’re in touch right now”.
