Choi Ji-woo and Lee Seo-jin from “Grandpas over Flowers” on tvN

Actress Choi Ji-woo has denied that she is dating actor Lee Seo-jin, with whom she worked on a TV variety show.

Choi, 40, and Lee, 45, worked on tvN’s “Grandpas over Flowers” in 2015. The travel reality show featured four actors in their seventies ― Lee Soon-jae, Shin Goo, Park Geun-hyung and Baek Il-seob ― as they go on an overseas backpacking tour with Lee and Choi.

Choi told the online daily TV Report that people encouraged her to go out with Lee after they had appeared on the program. But she asked rhetorically, “Does co-stars mean a dating partner after all?

Choi recently starred in the romantic comedy “Like for Likes,” a movie about people finding unexpected romance with someone they meet online.
