The report quotes an informant who states that when fans asked the uploader if the stars came together, the person quickly took down the photo with Soyou.

When fans asked him if the two had come together, the person took down the photo of Soyou and later claimed that it wasn’t her. If the two weren’t dating, I don’t see why the person felt the need to change his words.

The informant is then quoted as alleging that the two were previously seen together, but, at the time, there wasn’t any evidence.

When the two were alleged to have been seen together before, I thought it was just a rumor since there weren’t any pictures. But I am sure there is something more to these pictures.

When asked about the allegations, Lim Young Woong’s agency reportedly shut them down, stating that the rumors were “Absolutely not true.” Soyou’s agency also denied the allegations.

Soyou recently traveled to Jeju-do to film, and merely visited the same place. They don’t have any relationship.
