It doesn't seem like many men would reject a dinner proposal from Hollywood star Dakota Fanning. However, if recent reports from YG Entertainment are true, apparently, even A-list actresses get turned down once in awhile.

Fanning, who is in Korea with her younger sister Elle for a promotional project with luxury jewelers J. Estina, recently revealed that she is a fan of G-Dragon, the charismatic leader of the K-Pop group Big Bang. According to YG, Big Bang's management company, Fanning contact them "through a Korean agency" in hopes of meeting the 24-year-old pop star. However, "though G-Dragon, who is also a fan of Dakota Fanning, tried to adjust his schedule to meet with her, in the end, they've decided to meet at a later time due to conflicting schedules."  G-Dragon and his group members are currently busy preparing for their Japanese tour in Osaka.

YG's statement made headlines in Korea and seemed to confirm the widely held belief by Koreans that K-Pop has truly become an international phenomenon. Although Hallyu, or the Korean Wave, has been well documented throughout Asia, it had largely failed to reach the West. Of course, that quickly changed with the success of Psy's mega hit "Gangnam Style" in 2012.

However, there does seem to be some confusion because Fanning's representatives later released this contradictory statement: "Dakota Fanning never called G-Dragon, and they never promised to meet in Korea. There's no truth to the rumors."

Fanning is largely known in Korea for her role in I Am Sam, which also stars Sean Penn, and more recently for the Twilight movies. This weekend, she was spotted wandering around Hondae University, an area known for its indie music, street fashion, and club scene.  Fanning, her sister, and their mother also visited Garosu-gil, Seoul's equivalent of New York City's Soho.

The sisters took part in various events, and also made an appearance on Paik Ji-yeon's People Inside, a local television show, on January 7.
