On the 1st, Hyeri's agency, Sublime, responded to the dating rumors by stating, "It's a matter of the artist's personal life, so it's difficult to confirm," choosing their words carefully.
Earlier that day, a media outlet reported that Hyeri has been dating dancer WOOTAE for about a year. According to the report, the two met through the movie 'Victory,' where WOOTAE taught Hyeri, who played a cheerleader, some dance moves, which reportedly brought them closer together.
Born in 1991, WOOTAE is three years older than Hyeri and appeared on the Mnet reality show 'Street Man Fighter' in 2022.
