Companies deny dating rumors of aespa’s Winter and ENHYPEN’s Jungwon

Rumors of a romance between Jungwonby ENHYPEN, and Winterfrom aespa, became the sensation of the night last Tuesday, the 10th, after the release of a video in which the owner of the posts claimed to have seen the two idols together in a bar in the Cheongdam neighborhood, in South Korea, at the end of October.

The person who recorded the moment still says that, although the two left the place separately, they were together (Via Koreaboo).

Following reports on social media, companies that manage careers Winterand JungwonSM Entertainment and BELIFT LAB, respectively, denied the artists’ alleged relationship.

Claiming that the “evidence” is unfounded, and that the person who disclosed it was only interested in the monetary benefit he would gain from circulation on the networks, SM Entertainment reinforces that it will take legal action against the person responsible.

“[Os rumores] are unfounded. The person who circulated the photo contacted a media outlet with the intent of monetary gain, attempting to communicate with us directly. However, when the media outlet refused saying they cannot help contact [conosco] for reports for the purpose of monetary gain, they appeared to have been circulated maliciously [a foto]. We will take legal action.”

BELIFT LAB also denied the exhibition, and will take severe measures against the publisher for invading the artist’s privacy and for malicious actions.

“The dating rumors are not true. BELIFT LAB will take strong action against any acts that infringe on our artists’ privacy or create or spread malicious rumors.”

Some internet users even came to the artists’ defense, claiming that the two have been friends for years, since they were trainees at SM Entertainment, and that perhaps the rumor was just spread to divert focus from the country’s political situation.
