Former I.O.I and PRISTIN member Lim Nayoung and actor Choi Woong have responded to their dating rumors.
On June 29, a media outlet reported that according to an industry insider, Lim Nayoung and Choi Woong had developed into lovers after appearing together in the play “Hello, The Hell: Othello.” The report further stated that the two also recently traveled abroad as a couple after they performed at the 2023 Adelaide Fringe Festival Korean Season in March.
Soon after, the agencies of the two stars denied the rumors. A representative of Choi Woong’s agency The Creative Entertainment shared, “[Choi Woong] and Lim Nayoung are not dating. They’re just close friends because they did a play together.” Lim Nayoung’s side also responded, “The dating rumors with Choi Woong are not true.”
