Baek Jin Hee and Yoon Hyun Min, the stars of "My Daughter Geum Sa Wol," are the subject of dating rumors, which his agency has denied.
The actors play a couple in the weekend drama and their onscreen chemistry naturally led viewers to imagine that they might make a good couple in real life. Further fueling the rumors is the fact that the two spent time together while not filming. They were photographed out shopping together.
According to his agency IAm Entertainment the rumors are not true.
"The actors have become close by working on their current drama," an agency representative told the Korean media outlet OSEN. "But they are not in a romantic relationship."
What about those photos of them shopping together?
According to the agency the actors went shopping with their managers when they were done filming at a shopping center.
"Agency workers with with them too."
The pictures show only the actors and not the agency workers.
It might be too early for Yoon Hyun Min to be dating anyone. Yoon broke up with his girlfriend actress Jun So Min in January of 2016. Yoon and Jun dated for almost a year. Yoon, who was a baseball player for the Hanwha Eagles in 2005 and Doosan Bears in 2006, started acting in 2007. Yoon's most recent small screen appearance was playing second lead in the drama "Falling for Soon Jung."
In 2014 Baek Jin Hee was involved in dating rumors with Park Seo Joon, her co-star in "I Summon You Gold." Both stars denied the rumors, which went as far as to insinuate he bought a house to be near her. His agency said they were just friends that occasionally met for a cup of tea but were much too busy to date.
Before "My Daughter Ga Seum Wol," Baek Jin Hee starred in three successful dramas. She played the evil empress Tanashiri in "Empress Ki," Kim Jaejoong's love interest in "Triangle" and a prosecutor on Choi Jin Hyuk's team in "Pride and Prejudice."
