News about Yeonwoo and Lee Min Ho's alleged romantic relationship surprised everyone. However, after the King of Hallyu's agency denied the claim, the former Momoland member's own agency, MLD Entertainment, broke its silence.
MLD Entertainment has now issued an official statement to address the rumors about Lee Min Ho and Yeonwoo's alleged relationship. It first explained the reason behind the delay of the statement's release, saying its talent was busy with her drama schedules.
"After confirming with Yeonwoo, the dating rumors are not true," the company, then, revealed, via AllKpop. "They are only close sunbae-hoobaes."
Alternatively, when news about their romance broke out, MYM Entertainment quickly denied a publication's claim that they had been dating for five months now, Soompi noted. The agency firmly said the rumors about their relationship were not true at all.
It even stressed they are only acquaintances and the photos, showing them together, did not reveal other people who were them. The alleged couple was not alone at the time and they got company.
MYM also cleared the snaps were not evidence of a date. Dispatch broke the news about Yeonwoo and Lee Min Ho's relationship after being spotted on an alleged date together.
The two looked casual in their outfits, as the 34-year-old actor, allegedly, picked the singer up and went to a movie theatre in Coex. The publication also claimed they would usually have indoor dates as their houses are only a walking distance away from each other.
In fact, the "Boys Over Flowers" star even, reportedly, invited the "Live On" star to his home to welcome her 25th birthday at midnight of Aug. 1.
Meanwhile, Yeonwoo and Lee Min Ho's romance is said to have begun during the lockdown. They started getting close to each other through their shared interests, like playing video games and watching movies.
A source even said that the "The Heirs" actor is not fond of hiding his relationships, so he prefers going out on dates in public. He seems never to mind being eyed by the prying eyes of the people and even the paparazzi.
Moreover, fans quickly react to their alleged romance on Twitter, saying they are both old enough, so it should never be a problem. Some are even scared of how Dispatch knew everything about their relationship, making others question if the rumors about Yeonwoo and Lee Min Ho are even true and not staged.
