Lee Jun Ki's Agency Denies The Latest Round of Dating Rumors

Netizens love rumors of a romance and some have a lot of time on their hands. Recently Ha Ji Won and Bolin Chen were rumored to be dating because they had posted similar photos on social media. But it was just a coincidence, said Ha Ji Won.

On August 24, a Korean media outlet reported Lee Jun Ki and Jeon Hye Bin wore the same necklace and that they were couple necklaces, especially since dating rumors had linked the co-stars back in June.

"They just have a close relationship," Namoo Actors told the Korean media outlet TV Report on June 19.  

According to the agency, the actors became friends on the set of the drama "The Joseon Gunman" and because they work out at the same hotel fitness center they became closer. But that does not mean they are a couple.

On August 24, for the second time this summer, Lee Jun Ki's agency Namoo Actors has denied any rumors that the couple is dating.

"Lee Jun Ki and Jeon Hye Bin's romance rumors are not true," said an agency representative. "They are close colleagues."

According to the agency, the fact that they wore the same necklace did not mean anything.

"It's a coincidence that they have the same necklace," a Namoo Actors rep told the Korean media outlet Newsen. "Lee Jun Ki received the necklace as a gift from a fan and Jeon Hye Bin said that she bought the necklace herself. It is not a couple item."

Lee Jun Ki has been the subject of previous dating rumors, linking him with After School member and actress Uee, actress Shin Min Ah and also with actress Yoo Ri Ah. But the actor has repeatedly said he lacks real-life romantic experience and does not have time to date. His lack of real-life romantic experience is the reason he does not usually choose romantic comedies to star in. But he also said that no one believes that he is not dating anyone.

Lee Jun Ki currently stars in the historical vampire drama "Scholar Who Walks The Night" with Lee Yu Bi, Lee Soo Hyuk and Kim So Eun.

He is best known for his roles in the film "The King and The Clown" and the dramas "Arang and the Magistrate," "Iljimae," "Time Between Wolf and Dog" and "Two Weeks."

Jeon Hye Bin appeared in "Queen of the Office" and "Queen Insoo."
