Lee Min Ho’s agency denies that he is dating Park Min Young

‘City Hunter‘ co-stars Lee Min Ho and Park Min Young have given the press mixed responses about their romantic relationship.

On August 22nd, the two were caught on a date at a store in Kangnam by an internet outlet. Reports claimed that they had been dating for about a month now. Initially, articles were published stating that Lee Min Ho’s agency, StarHaus Entertainment, and Park Min Young’s agency, King Kong Entertainment, both acknowledged and confirmed the dating reports. However, it now seems that Star Haus is cautiously denying that the two are in a relationship.

StarHaus representatives stated, “The two have known each other for a while and naturally grew to become friends. They met a few times after ‘City Hunter’ came to an end, but it’s hard to call that dating. They’ve merely just begun to have an interest in one another. They may begin dating once they learn more, but it’s too early to say they’re dating yet. Furthermore, since it is the private life of our actor, we don’t want to release additional details on it.”

Park Min Young’s agency, King Kong Entertainment, on the other hand, responded, “They’re carefully getting to know each other. They are not dating.”

They continued, “We think it’s ridiculous and aren’t sure exactly why people think the agency made reports confirming their relationship. We have never admitted to them dating. A media outlet contacted us on August 22nd saying that they had photos of Park Min Young and asked us to check it out. We met with the reporter that day and found that they were just pictures of a meeting between friends. That’s why we said that they were friends and met each other often, but we never admitted to them dating.”

Despite the mixed responses, fans warmly welcomed the news by leaving supportive comments like, “Congratulations”, “They look great together”, and “They’re both so handsome and beautiful, no wonder they’ve grown fond of each other.”
