K-pop boy band The Boyz’s member Juyeon and actor Shin Si-a have denied rumors suggesting they are in a romantic relationship, with both agencies quickly issuing statements to refute the claims.
An official from Shin's agency Management SOOP said on Tuesday, “After checking, the dating rumor is not true.” Juyeon’s agency One Hundred also said, “The rumor is not true.”
Speculation began circulating online after fans pointed out that the two had been seen wearing similar items, such as hats, necklaces, and jackets. Both sides moved swiftly to shut down the rumors.
Juyeon and Shin previously worked together on the film “YOUNGYOUNG,” a story that explores the relationship between a man and a woman. The film was screened as a special selection at the 26th Jeonju International Film Festival.
The Boyz released their third full-length album “Unexpected,” in March. Shin is known for her roles in films such as “The Witch: Part 2. The Other One” and “The Old Woman with the Knife,” and recently starred as first-year OB-GYN resident Pyo Nam-kyung in the tvN drama “Resident Playbook,” which wrapped last month.
