On June 20, Park Seo Joon was swirled up in dating rumors with singer xooos. The rumors were reportedly sparked when a now-deleted photo of the two was uploaded to an online community.

Not long after, Park Seo Joon’s agency Awesome Entertainment responded to the allegations, stating they weren’t privy to information about the actor’s private life.

The actor then personally addressed the rumors on June 21. Rather than deny or confirm the rumors, however, the actor revealed in a press conference that he wouldn’t be revealing information about his private life.

I heard about the news very late yesterday. My first thought after hearing the news was, ‘I’m getting a lot of attention’. I thought getting that attention was something to be thankful for.

However, in my situation, I feel a lot of pressure to reveal my personal life, and it is difficult to say anything noteworthy because it is part of my personal life.

This is my first official schedule for Concrete Utopia, so I hope you show a lot of interest in the movie.

Although the actor is absolutely entitled to keeping his private life secret, media outlets couldn’t help but notice the difference in response to Park Seo Joon’s previous dating allegations.

Media outlets noted that Park Seo Joon had previously been linked to actresses Park Min Young and Baek Jin Hee. At the time, the actor denied the allegations both times as “Not true.”

Of course, this does not necessarily mean that the allegations surrounding Park Seo Joon and xooos are true, but fans are left wondering why the actor isn’t denying the rumors if they weren’t true.

Stay tuned for updates.
