Agencies of Jungkook and Lee Yoo Bi deny dating rumors -report

The agencies of BTS' Jungkook and "Yumi's Cells" actress Lee Yoo Bi denied rumors that the two are in a relationship.

Soompi reports Big Hit Music, the label behind the global phenomenon BTS, has released a statement on Monday denying that Jungkook is dating Lee Yoo Bi. The agency added it is taking regular legal actions against malicious posts and false information about BTS.

Meanwhile, Yoo Bi's agency, Yi-Bloom Entertainment, said that it was a "groundless rumor."

"Lee Yoo Bi and Jungkook’s dating news make no sense. They’ve never met, and they don’t know each other. Among the BTS members, Lee Yoo Bi knew Suga, but that was a long time ago. We don’t even know if they’re in touch right now," the agency said.

Rumors started to circulate online after a YouTuber, popular for K-pop content, uploaded a video that claimed the two celebrities were in a relationship.

In the video, the vlogger said Yoo Bi is a fan of Jungkook and the two wore "matching clothes and bracelets."

The video also said that the BTS member's older brother and Yoo Bi's younger sister follow each other on social media. — LA, GMA News
