ATEEZ member San has personally addressed the dating rumors surrounding him and fellow member Wooyoung, assuring fans that they are simply close friends.
The topic came up in the duo's newly launched YouTube channel, where the two were brainstorming ideas for future content they could create together.
During the conversation, Wooyoung suggested documenting the process of getting another friendship tattoo.
"How about getting one more friendship tattoo? Film everything. Like getting permission from both our parents," Wooyoung said in Korean.
San, however, immediately pointed out how the idea could be perceived by fans.
"Don't talk rubbish. People will think we're really dating," he replied.
Taking the opportunity to address the speculation, San made it clear that there is no romantic relationship between them.
"Anyway, while I have the chance, let me just say this here. We're not dating. We're just really good friends…," San said.
When a producer then asked the pair to move closer together for the camera, San jokingly responded:
"After talking about this, getting closer feels awkward. Can we move further again?"
The exchange quickly caught the attention of fans online, with many amused that San chose to personally clear up the rumors on the pair's own YouTube channel. Others also found Wooyoung's suggestion of getting another friendship tattoo particularly funny, considering the long-running speculation about their close bond.
