Kim Min Jae recently made waves after starring in his recently concluded Kdrama "Dali and the Cocky Prince."

Kim Min Jae Dating Rumor #1: So Ju Yeon
The multi-talented actor is relatively private when it comes to his love life, but he couldn't escape the prying eyes of the media.
Although some reports noted that Kim Min Jae's relationship status is currently single, he got involved in a dating rumor with his "Dr. Romantic 2" co-star So Ju Yeon.
In the 2020 Kdrama, the singer-actor took on the role of Park Eun Tak, Doldam Hospital's heartthrob nurse.
To recall, Kim Min Jae's character doesn't have a love line in the first season; however, his role gets interesting when the second season welcomes the 27-year-old actress as Doldam Hospital's EM specialist Yoon Ah Reum.
At the height of the SBS medical series, several outlets suggest that the two are in a hush-hush relationship--this might be because the actor had convincing chemistry that others believe they are secretly dating.
Interestingly, So Ju Yeon put the rumors to rest after she gets honest and reveals the real score between them.
In a 2020 interview, the "Lovestruck in the City" star denied that she and Kim Min Jae are dating, describing their relationship as somewhat like a "family."

Sorry, shippers, but it looks like these two are such great actors that everyone believes that they are more than just co-stars.
Moreover, the actress also showed appreciation to fans who thought they "had a lot of chemistry."
"In the moments when we were acting, our feelings were genuine," she added.
Kim Min Jae Dating Rumor #2: Park Eun Bin
The South Korean cutie and Park Eun Bin starred in a romance Kdrama, "Do You Like Brahms?"
As always, the duo aced their on-screen chemistry as the pianist Park Joon Young and the music student Chae Song Ah.
Their connection in the SBS series brought excitement to the viewers, sparking another dating rumor for Kim Min Jae.
Unfortunately, it seems like they are not dating after the actor pointed out how the "The King's Affection" star helped him portray his character better, hence expressing his deepest gratitude towards Park Eun Bin.
