Just friends? Goo Hara and G-Dragon are sparking dating rumors after they were spotted at an amusement park along with former f(x) member Sulli and Brown Eyed Girls' Son Ga-In.
Earlier this week, Korean media outlet Dispatch published several photos of Hara, G-Dragon, Sulli and Ga-In's recent trip to Lotte World in Seoul, South Korea. The photos, which were widely circulated on Twitter, showed the BIGBANG leader with his trademark black face mask.
While the Kpop idol has attempted to cover his real identity, netizens pointed out the cell phone cover that he recently shared on his Instagram account. Hara and Gain were also seen sporting similar face masks, while Sulli was captured wearing a rabbit headpiece.
Following the dating rumors, Hara's agency quickly released a statement to address the issue, claiming that the two are just close friends and nothing more. While the label did not think it was necessary to respond to the rumors, many individuals are commenting on the singer's social media account about it.
"The dating rumors going around on fan pages are ridiculous," KeyEast said in a press statement obtained by All Kpop. "G-Dragon and Hara are friends. There were other people there too. They don't have a special relationship."
This is not the first time the BIGBANG leader has been linked to someone. Just recently, G-Dragon and 2NE1's Sandara Park sparked dating rumors after they were spotted leaving the group's afterparty together. At the time, the former was seen grasping the latter's shoulder as he led her far from the fans.
YG Entertainment then addressed the dating rumors, claiming that the Kpop idols' close moment was meant as a fun joke and that they did not expect the media would take it seriously. They reiterated, "G-Dragon suggested to Sandara Park that they have their photos taken in that pose as a joke. It was a joke that turned into a dating rumor."
