According to CBS No Cut News on the 18th, a representative from Song Min-ho's agency YG Entertainment and a representative from Park Ju-hyun's agency 935 Entertainment said, “It is in the realm of privacy, so it is difficult to verify.”

Previously, SBS Entertainment News reported in the morning that Song Min-ho and Park Ju-hyun became close while starring in the 2022 Netflix movie “Seoul Vibe” and have been dating for two years.

Song Min-ho is a member of the group WINNER, which debuted in 2014. WINNER has been loved for several songs such as “REALLY REALLY,” “Empty,” “MILLIONS,” and “ISLAND.” Song Min-ho is currently serving as a social service agent, and there have been allegations of inadequate service, such as manipulating attendance records.

However, a representative from YG stated, “The reason for sick leave is an extension of treatment received before service, and all other leaves were used according to regulations,” denying the allegations.

Park Ju-hyun has appeared in films such as “Drive,” “Seoul Vibe,” “Escape: Project Silence,” and the drama “Extracurricular,” “Zombie Detective,” “Mouse,” “Run On: Speed 493km,” “The Forbidden Marriage,” and “Perfect Family.” In October, Park took on the lead role of Jung Yoon in the movie “6 Hours After You Die.”
