Blockberry Creative Responds to Reports of LOONA Hyunjin and Rapper A-FLOW's Dating Rumors
Recently on July 11, Sojang, an infamous Youtube channel, uploaded a new video that claimed LOONA member Hyunjin is currently dating a rapper who is 23 years her senior. According to Sojang, Hyunjin, who is currently 21, is dating rapper A-FLOW, whose real name is Park Sang Jun and is 44 years old.
Sojang also claimed that Hyunjin has a private Instagram account, which was recently hacked by an international fan. On there, it was allegedly discovered that Hyunjin was dating A-FLOW, who was a former member of SMAX and is now active as a producer and composer.
Hyunjin also reportedly uses her private Instagram to openly express her relationship with the rapper, such as tagging A-FLOW's own Instagram account and interacting with each other lovingly. According to Sojang, the two have been in a relationship since 2020.
Sojang also notes that Hyunjin was spotted on several occasions wearing a silver ring on her thumb, even during LOONA's promotions, alleging that it is Hyunjin and A-FLOW's couple ring.

In addition, it was mentioned that Hyunjin's fellow LOONA member Choerry had once collaborated with A-FLOW for the single "YOU" back in 2020, and that the rapper would promote the group's songs.
Following Sojang's video, Hyunjin's dating rumors were met with divided reactions. While some didn't mind the idol dating someone, many believed that A-FLOW was too old for Hyunjin as the age gap between the two was too large.

On July 13, Blockberry Creative denied the two's relationship and said they would take legal action against the rumors.
