As Kim Soo Hyun’s dating rumors continue to make waves online, attention has suddenly shifted to the late actress Kim Sae Ron.

What WOODZ’s agency said on Kim Sae Ron dating rumours?

WOODZ’s agency, EDAM Entertainment, kept things short and to the point when asked about the dating speculation. “Since it is his personal life, we cannot verify the reports,” they told reporters.?

Kim Sae Ron and WOODZ: How the rumours started?

The buzz started on April 11 after YouTuber Lee Jin Ho claimed Kim Sae Ron was in a relationship with a singer referred to only as “A” from early 2021 to May 2022. He described them as basically a public couple, pointing to things like Kim allegedly sending a coffee truck to the singer’s set and the two being seen together at industry events.?

A day later, social media was quick to assume that “A” was WOODZ. Fans pointed to old social media likes, interactions, and that coffee truck moment as “proof” that something was going on.

Lee Jin Ho also suggested that her DUI incident in 2022 may have been tied to a breakup. He claimed she was emotionally overwhelmed, drank with friends, skipped a dubbing session for her drama Bloodhounds, and that led to the accident.

Kim Soo Hyun controversy?

Notably, Kim Sae Ron’s family has claimed she was in a six-year relationship with actor Kim Soo Hyun starting in 2016. If that’s true, it would overlap with the alleged 2021–2022 relationship with WOODZ. Naturally, people are raising questions about what really happened and when.

WOODZ, also known as Cho Seung Youn, is one of those rare K-pop artists who can pretty much do it all. He sings, raps, dances, writes, and produces. He first got his start with the group UNIQ, then made a name for himself on shows like Show Me the Money 5 and Produce X 101, and later became part of the group X1. After all that, he’s been doing really well as a solo artist.Right now, though, he’s taking a break from the spotlight while he finishes up his military service. His fans (aka MOODZ) are already counting down the days until he’s back, which should be around July 2025.??
