SEOUL – South Korean actor Park Seo-joon has neither confirmed nor denied the rumour that he is dating South Korean YouTuber and singer Kim Soo-yeon, better known as Xooos.
On Wednesday, a day after the dating rumour was widely reported, Park appeared at a press conference for his upcoming disaster thriller flick Concrete Utopia in Seoul.
“I heard the news late yesterday because I was shooting another project. The first thing I felt after reading the news was that I am receiving a lot of attention. But, as an actor, it’s really difficult for me to talk more about my personal life,” Park told reporters.
“Instead of putting so much attention on me, I hope such attention can be moved to our film.”
According to local news reports, Park, 34, and Xooos, 29, are in a relationship and he has already introduced her to his friends, including V of boy band BTS and Jennie of girl group Blackpink.
Xooos was also spotted attending Jennie’s Calvin Klein collection launch event.
Another online post that said that Park and Xooos were seen together in London earlier in 2023 went viral as well.
Xooos, who has more than 1.5 million subscribers on YouTube and 700,000 followers on Instagram, released an album in January after a clip of herself singing Charlie Puth’s 2020 hit Light Switch went viral on YouTube in 2022.
Park’s agency Awesome ENT said it would not confirm anything about the Itaewon Class (2020) actor’s private life.
Concrete Utopia will open in South Korea and Singapore in August. The Marvels, in which Park appears as a new character in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, is slated to open in November. THE KOREA HERALD/ASIA NEWS NETWORK
