South Korean actor Lee Min Ho has become the center of attention after rumors of him being in a romantic relationship surfaced. The speculation arose following his unusual behavior during his appearance on Salon Drip 2 alongside actress Gong Hyo Jin. The two actors are currently collaborating on the drama When The Stars Gossip.
This marked Lee Min Ho’s debut on a YouTube entertainment program, and his candid remarks added fuel to the rumors. "I said I enjoy uncomfortable questions even during written interviews," he admitted, as reported by Insert Live.
Korean comedian Jang Do Yeon, who was also present on the show, took the opportunity to ask Lee Min Ho personal questions about his love life.
"Are you currently in a relationship?" Jang Do Yeon asked bluntly.
She followed up with another probing question: "How many celebrities have you dated so far—more than five or less?"
Lee Min Ho deflected the inquiry in a lighthearted manner, saying, "I need to go to the restroom," instead of giving a direct answer.
This unusual reaction sparked widespread attention and discussions on social media, with fans playfully speculating about his love life.
"Got caught, huh?" joked one fan with the username @yun***.
"Oh my, I didn’t expect you’d go public about us," commented another fan, @sel***.
"Dispatch hasn’t even launched the news, but Min Ho is spilling it himself," added @lad***.
The dating rumors didn’t stop there. Lee Min Ho was previously linked to Joanna Chun, a chaebol heiress from a wealthy family in South Korea. According to Insert Live, the rumors began after the two were frequently spotted traveling to Japan this year. It was reported that they stayed at the same hotel and visited the country almost monthly.
Despite the growing buzz, Lee Min Ho’s agency has not released any statement regarding these rumors.
The speculation around Lee Min Ho's personal life continues to gain traction, especially as fans eagerly anticipate any developments ahead of the new year.
