UPDATE: K-Drama sensation Kim Yoo Jung has personally addressed the swirling rumors of a romance with her co-star Kim Do Hoon. During a press conference on October 30, KST, for her upcoming TVING series, Dear X, Kim directly confronted speculation that emerged following their appearance together at a Vietnam airport.
The dating rumors ignited in September when the pair was spotted alone, raising questions about a possible private trip after their filming concluded. Despite Kim Yoo Jung’s agency swiftly denying the claims—stating that the entire cast traveled to Vietnam together—the speculation was reignited by a later Instagram post featuring the co-stars.
Determined to set the record straight, Kim decided to address the rumors head-on at the press conference. She recalled the moment the rumors first surfaced, sharing, “I spoke with Kim Do Hoon almost right away. After we wrapped up the Busan International Film Festival for Dear X, we both laughed for about three minutes straight.”

Adding humor to the situation, Kim joked about hoping the rumors would attract more attention to their drama. Director Lee Eun Bok chimed in, saying, “I’m willing to provide more photos of the two of them. I’ve secured about 100 photos taken at that time.” Co-star Lee Yeol Eum also shared her reaction, admitting that she could only laugh at the unexpected buzz.
Kim Yoo Jung expressed a positive outlook on the rumors, noting that the increased attention could benefit Dear X. The highly anticipated K-Drama is set to premiere on November 6 at 6 PM KST on TVING, and the actress hopes viewers will tune in, intrigued by the off-screen chemistry.
This latest revelation not only highlights the personal dynamics between the cast but also showcases the impact of social media on celebrity relationships. As fans eagerly await the series launch, the excitement surrounding Kim Yoo Jung and Kim Do Hoon is palpable.
