YG Entertainment on Sunday denied rumors that Blackpink member Jisoo is dating Korean soccer star Son Heung Min.
According to a report on Soompi, YG Entertainment released a formal statement in response to the rumors linking the two personalities romantically.
"We are definitively stating that all the dating rumors related to Blackpink's Jisoo are not true," YG Entertainment wrote in the statement.
