Fashion designer Choi Beom-seok’s appearance on KBS talk show “You Are Flower” on Wednesday has reignited rumors of his involvement with two sexy celebrities.

The first involved actress/model Clara Lee, who is best known for her body. The two worked together in the fall of 2014 on TV fashion competition show “Fashion King Korea: Season 2” on SBS. Choi, 29, designed clothes for Lee.

The rumors of romance developed when Lee was seen sitting next to Choi and repeatedly touching his bracelet while recording the show. Lee also reportedly said at the show’s promotion event that she bought bracelets and rings with Choi. She said she was “happy to have spent time with Choi when she could share precious moments with him.”

An online photo of glamorous model Yoo Seung-ok, 24, and Choi has become the latest hot search. Posted on Yoo’s Facebook webpage on Feb. 16, the photo shows the pair smiling. Choi designed costumes for Yoo, who is an official model for video game Tekken 7.
