One thing that Korean stars lack is privacy as some media and fans invade their personal life, including relationships. Several actors and actresses have been involved in various dating rumors. While some of it came out true, others got caught up in awkward relationship gossip.
From Hallyu stars like Son Ye Jin, and Gong Yoo to award-winning actors like Yoo Ah In and Uhm Ki Joon, here are some of the most bizarre dating rumors in K-dramaland.
Definitely one of the most beloved South Korean stars, fans love Gong Yoo’s effortless charm and ability to captivate viewers with his acting skills.
However, he was once embroiled in a dating rumor with a fellow actor.
Kang Dong Won is one of Gong Yoo’s friends, and because of their closeness, others speculate that they are secret lovers.
However, TMI News shut down rumors and revealed that the duo is not lovers, but the “Train to Busan” star is related by marriage to Kang Dong Won.
According to a local news outlet, Kang Dong Won previously revealed in an interview that their families are “quite close.”
“Our grandfathers were friends from a young age, and they brought our families together,” he explained. With this, two grandfathers decided that their children should get married.
Before being Hyun Bin’s wife, Son Ye Jin got caught up in various dating rumors, including Kim Nam Gil, after starring in the 2013 movie “Shark” and Jung Hae In for their 2018 JTBC drama “Something in the Rain.”
However, in 2011, the “Crash Landing on You” star was rumored to be in a love triangle involving SNSD’s Yuri and Han Ye Seul.
It was so bizarre that the trio never addressed the malicious rumor.
Known for his versatile acting and love for arts, Yoo Ah In did not escape the public’s prying eyes after he got entangled in dating rumors and was accused of being gay.
The rumor sparked in 2016 after he was spotted at a gay bar; however, in 2021, the “Hellbound” star is caught up in the same rumor after posting a series of photos of a guy on Instagram, raising speculation about their relationship.
The rumored boyfriend is identified as Choi Ha Neul, a young photographer who had his exhibits in the USA, Seoul, and Hong Kong.
Best known for his role in “The Penthouse” as the greedy and fearless Joo Dan Tae, he started his career as a theater actor before debuting in K-drama.
Despite his popularity, he is still active in theaters and appeared in the same musical as Super Junior’s Kyuhyun.
During his appearance on MBC’s “Radio Star” in 2015, Uhm Ki Joon addressed the rumors regarding his closeness with the Kpop star. He said he knew it and had received a call about the rumor.
On the other hand, Kyuhyun, who is also among the guests, made a comment and said, “Uhm Ki Joon sent me a text telling me [about the rumor], so I jokingly called him, ‘Honey.’ After receiving the text, he brutally cussed me out.”
