Choi Yunnyeong, Jo Yusik SNS

Choi Yunnyeong, a cast member of the Tving dating reality show ‘Transit Love 4’, personally denied the dating rumors with Jo Yusik.

On the 11th, via her SNS, Choi began, “Ah, everyone… Yusik and me? That is really not something you do among family.” She continued, “Between us, instead of romance, there is only camaraderie. Is all this because Yusik has not introduced any men to me?” and drew a line, saying, “Let us stop the misunderstandings now. The rumors are not true.”

She added lightheartedly, “Now please stop linking Yusik and me, and how about recommending some candidates for a boyfriend to me?”

At the same time, she shared the burden she felt about the rumors. She said, “Everyone misunderstands, but if you really look at me, I get hurt and I am delicate,” and appealed, “A kind word of support is more precious than rumors.” She added, “It seemed like it was spreading into too big a misunderstanding, so I am saying this quietly and leaving.”

Recently, on some online communities, posts spread claiming the two had visited the same places in Japan around a similar time, sparking dating rumors. As photos showing overlapping itineraries were shared, suspicions of a ‘real-life couple’ were even raised.

The two became acquainted through ‘Transit Love 4’. The broadcast depicted them choosing to reunite with their respective exes or to seek new connections, but they ultimately did not choose each other. As of now, neither has a publicly acknowledged partner.

Meanwhile, on the program, Choi Yunnyeong ended up as the final couple with Seong Baek-hyeon, but it did not develop into a real-life relationship.
