DIA Eunchae Dating Rumor With UP10TION Xiao
Back in August 2018, a netizen made a post on an online community and alleged that DIA Eunchae is dating UP10TION Xiao. The original post is now deleted but the entire content was shared on someone's blog.
In the post, the netizen noted that the two idols probably met at Hanlim Multi Art School, where they were part of the same class and graduated together. One of the "pieces of evidence" that the netizen shared was the fact that the UP10TION member consistently used the hashtag "#goodnight" during the time DIA was promoting their new song "Good Night" in October 2017.

The netizen also argued that the piglet dolls in the picture that Xiao uploaded are the same as the ones seen in Eunchae's room. They then noted that the doll was given to Eunchae during a V LIVE broadcast.
Other netizens flocked to the post and left comments under it. Some of the comments are as follows:
"A lot of idols have piglet dolls, though."
"Even if you're dating, please keep it a secret."
"If they are really dating, then why do they have to do that on SNS, which is meant to communicate with the fans? Poor fans."
"The only 'evidence' you have is a hashtag..?"
"Do you people want to become the next PENTAGON and CLC?"

DIA Eunchae's Recent Activities
Eunchae has not been active in the entertainment industry in the past few months. Even her group DIA is inactive in the music scene at the moment. But, it was revealed in early May this year that the girl group will make a comeback in August with a new album.
It will be their first return to the music scene in almost two years and two months since their sixth mini-album, "Flower 4 Seasons," came out in June 2020.
Reportedly, the upcoming album will be DIA's final album before the members' contracts with their company PocketDol Studio expire. But a representative from their agency said that there is still some time remaining before their contract ends in September this year, hence, it is still uncertain whether the August album will be the last album.

This past January, member Somyi terminated her contract with PocketDol and left the group. The label explained that she decided to withdraw from the group due to personal health reasons. Before that, Somyi had been absent from DIA's activities since early 2020.
