ENHYPEN Jay Dating Rumor with ITZY Yuna
Back in March of this year, Jay became entangled in a dating rumor with Yuna after the two idols shared similar photos of them at a restaurant.
The rumor first began when Yuna took to the fan messenger app Bubble to have a chat with fans and update them on what she has been up to at that time.

While on Bubble, the ITZY member had shared several photos of her visiting the Gordon Ramsay Burger restaurant found at the Lotte Word Mall in Seoul.
In addition, Yuna was spotted spending her leisure time with a mystery person as there were two burgers and a milkshake.
Following the post, netizens began speculating that Yuna was spending time at the popular restaurant with Jay, as he had also shared a couple of photos of him at the same restaurant on the same day.
In Jay's photos, it can be seen that he had also ordered the same kind of milkshake and burgers as Yuna, which made netizens believe that the idols were on a date.

However, as the rumor began gaining attention on social media, Yuna had quickly shut down the speculation by hopping on Bubble to explain the situation.
On Bubble, Yuna explained that she had visited the Gordon Ramsay Burger restaurant with someone who she has been friends with since elementary school.
ITZY Yuna denying the dating rumors
According to Yuna, they had been friends for over 11 years, and had gone to the restaurant to celebrate her friend's college acceptance.
Along with her explanation, Yuna also shared another photo of her time at the restaurant, which shows another angle of her burger and milkshake, but this time with her female friend being visible.

Jay himself also denied the dating rumors during a live broadcast, and revealed he went to the restaurant with his father.
Thus, Jay and Yuna's dating rumor were put to an end and proved to be false.
ENHYPEN Jay Relationship Status
As of this moment, Jay is currently single and is not dating anyone public, nor did he have any confirmed relationships in the past.
This is not entirely surprising considering Jay just recently made his debut as an idol, and it is common for rookie idols to have a dating ban for a couple of years.
