Korean singer Hyomin of K-pop girl group T-ara and South Korean soccer player Hwang Ui-jo have officially separated, their management confirmed.
Hyomin's manager released an official statement for the press saying, “We'd like to share our position regarding the dating news that was reported in January. At that time, they were seeing each other with good feelings, but due to the pressure of the situation, they naturally grew apart, and they have now decided to remain acquaintances who support each other.
“At the time, neither Hyomin nor Hwang Ui Jo had management agencies, so there was no one who could perform official duties. We ask for your understanding that they could not respond quickly to inquiries.”
Hyomin and Hwang Ui-jo's dating rumors began in January this year after they were seen together in Switzerland.
Hyomin debuted with girl group T-ara in 2009, who made a comeback in 2021 with "TIKI TAKA."
Hwang Ui-jo, on the other hand, has been among of the most famous soccer players in South Korea since 2013. He has earned several titles, such as Asian Games top goalscorer and Korean FA Player of the Year.
