Park Shin Hye recently admitted that she does date even though she's not dating anyone at the moment.

In an interview with TV Report, the star of the drama "Pinocchio" and the film 'The Royal Tailors," said she has secretly dated for years.

"Although I'm not dating anyone right now, I've have dated on and off without the public noticing," said Park Shin Hye. "Some experiences were more memorable than others."

Park Shin Hye did not say whom it was that she dated. Rumors have paired her with co-stars Jang Geun Suk, Jung Yong Hwa, Lee Min Ho and most recently Lee Jong Suk. They have all denied being more than friends. The actress has also been photographed with several male friends, including F.T. Island's Lee Hongki and Super Junior's Kim Heechul. She and Lee Jong Suk were also friendly before co-starring in Pinocchio, having met up at multiple awards shows.

 "Unfortunately, nobody seems to be attracted to me," she said. "I guess it's not great to have many male friends. It just means that I'm not attractive as a woman. I used to seriously wonder if I had no feminine charms."

It's not true that no one is attracted to her. Recently, her "The Royal Tailors" co-star Yoo Yeon Suk said he wanted to date her. It did not seem like he was joking but when Park Shin Hye appeared on "Midnight TV Entertainment," she joked that Yoo Yeon Suk never called her after the filming ended. He missed his chance.

However difficult it might be to find someone special, the actress doubts that at this point in her life she has the time for a long-term relationship.

"I spend so much time on my work, totally absorbed, that it's hard for me to date. It's difficult for both me and my partner."

Dating does involve a lot of time and effort.

"Dating isn't just about seeing each other because you like one another. You have to make the effort and sacrifice your own time for your partner. I'm not good at focusing on other stuff when I have something on my mind. That is why I sometimes don't even contact my friends or family that often. Although I wanted to marry early in the past, I am now far from thinking about marriage just because I have more I want to accomplish as time has passed by."

Park Shin Hye appears in the dramas "You're Beautiful," "Heartstrings," "Flower Boy Next Door" and "Pinocchio."
