Star Empire Entertainment, boy group ZE:A’s label, has refuted reports that member Dongjun is dating musical actress Jung Jae Eun.
Korean media outlet Sports Today published a report earlier today that a source close to the pair revealed that they started dating earlier this year after developing feelings for one another while working on the musical All Shook Up together.
Both artistes’ agencies took swift action and checked with the pair individually before flatly denying the dating rumours.
Star Empire stated that the two have developed a close friendship but are not dating. Likewise, Jung Jae Eun’s agency, Polaris Entertainment, stressed that the two are close colleagues.
All Shook Up, which ended its run earlier this year, was Dongjun’s first musical project whereas Jung Jae Eun has participated in numerous other projects, including the musical adaptation of hit drama Moon That Embraces The Sun, which was also headlined by Super Junior’s Kyuhyun and Girls’ Generation’s Seohyun.
