Lee Jun Ki's Long History Of Dating Rumors

Lee Jun Ki became the subject of yet another dating rumor on June 19 when the Korean media outlet Newsway reported that he was in a relationship with actress Jeon Hye Bin.

The actors met while working on the 2014 historical drama "The Joseon Gunman."

But both agencies denied the rumors. The actors became friends on set and because they work out at the same hotel fitness center they became closer. But that does not mean they are dating.

"They just have a close relationship," Namoo Actors told the Korean media outlet TV Report.  

It's not Lee Jun Ki's first dating rumor. In 2012 his agency had to deny that he was dating actress Yoo Ri Ah, after they were seen at the same beauty salon and went for coffee together. Staff members at the salon introduced them. His agency said that they only met so he could give her some acting advice.

And then there was the rumor that he was dating After School singer and actress Uee. That rumor also circulated in 2012.  When he heard it, he did not think it was an entirely bad rumor. It just wasn't true.

"The dating rumor is completely untrue," Lee Jun Ki said when he appeared on the program "One Night TV Entertainment. "Although it is a bit sad I hope next time there is an even better dating rumor..."

In 2013 there were rumors he was dating actress Shin Min Ah but when he appeared on "Healing Camp," he denied it. Despite working with her for five months, he never got her number.

In 2013 when he was working on the drama "Two Weeks," he confessed that his lack of romantic experience sometimes made it hard for him to feel comfortable acting romantic scenes with his co-star Park Ha Sun.

"When it comes to romantic comedies the reason I hesitate to choose one is that I lack experience in that area," he said.

He's convinced that his romantic scenes are off.

"I don't think my acting comes across as natural."

At the time he confessed that he was too busy to date.

In a 2014 interview with Newsen, he was asked about dating and his plans to marry.

"Of course I want to date," said Lee. "I've been asking people around me to introduce a good person for me. I'm nearing the age to get married so I should date for awhile before I get married."

When asked if he was dating secretly, he said no.

"I really don't have a girlfriend. Even the staff members say, 'Don't lie. Why are you lying even to us?' but after a month or two, they really believe me. They even feel bad for me later on."

The actor will next be seen on the small screen in the vampire saeguk "The Scholar Who Walks The Night." His co-star is actress Lee Yu Bi. He's very happy with his career but it would also be great if he could fit some real dates into his busy schedule.
