Back in the beginning of the month, there were reports saying that HeeChul and girl group TWICE's member MOMO were dating each other.
Soon after the reports were made, they confirmed that they were in a relationship.
While talking, HeeChul commented, "Many people are saying that we've been dating for three years, but that really isn't the case, you know. I didn't even know her then."
He added, "I could only take a certain amount of love and support at once, but I felt like I was receiving way more of them than I could take. It was just too much for me. At that time, what came to my mind was, 'Maybe being a celebrity is not right for me.'"
HeeChul said, "Fans called me 'flower-like good-looking guy' and I called them 'petals', because they were always by my side. I had received this song for my solo debut album, and given it the title, 'Flower Petal'. It wasn't a fan song, but I thought of them when thinking of the name of the title."
He added, "As you told me, I will not be able to share this voice that I have now. But I still would be able to share my voice. So, I'm trying to think it as positively as possible."
