Is Kim Go Eun dating Gong Yoo for real? Rumors continue to persist even despite both HODU&U Entertainment and Soop Entertainment denying any truth to speculations.
According to a report by Koreaboo, Gong Yoo's agency Soop Entertainment dismissed the reports as false information saying that the relationship between the two actors never happened. Kim Go Eun's agency responded in kind and asked the public not to misinterpret Gong Yoon and Kim Go Eun's relationship. It further said that the recent break-up between Kim Go Eun and her boyfriend Shin Ha Kyun was a result of conflicting schedules and not a third party.
It can be recalled that dating rumors started to break out after Kim GO Eun deleted all the photos in her Instagram account and replaced them with a singular post of herself with Gong Yoo wearing wedding clothes. It turned out that the photos were actually publicity stills for their tvN drama Goblin.
However, a Candy Magazine report has pulled out a post by a fan who spotted the couple dining out as early as December, 2016. This fanned fresh speculations that the two have been seeing each other at the height of "Goblin's" popularity.
Based on the fan video, the entrance of the restaurant was surrounded by curious fans who were trying to peek through inside. After a few seconds, Gong Yoo came out as he was shielded by some staff. A woman who seemed like Kim Go Eun stepped out discreetly after him wearing a hoodie.
While there were no photos taken inside the restaurant and there were no overt signs of the pair being sweet to each other and it could be a totally innocent dinner between friends, fresh rounds of rumors will definitely result from the post. Until everything is cleared out by the actors themselves, it may take a while for the dating news to die down.
