Celebrity couple Lee Min Ho, 29, and Bae Suzy, 21, are once again embroiled in break-up rumors. On Aug. 1, Monday, both stars' respective agencies, MYM Entertainment and JYP Entertainment, denied reports that the couple has called it quits.
In early June, it was reported that Lee and Suzy broke up after 15 months of dating. Not long after the news made noise, photos of the latter with former boyfriend, Sung Joon, suddenly flooded the web.
Along with the photos are different speculations claiming that Suzy is seeing again his ex-boyfriend and is cheating on Lee. It is said that Lee and Suzy gradually grew apart due to their respective busy schedules.
However, both Lee and Suzy's side have come forward to clear up the unending rumors. In a press statement released in a various newsstand in South Korea, MYM Entertainment stated that "The Heirs" actor just confirmed that they are still meeting well.
"The rumor about the couple's break-up is false," JYP Entertainment said in a statement obtained by Soompi. "Suzy has clarified the truth with us. She says that they are still dating."
Lee and Suzy started dating in January 2015, though the two only revealed their relationship to the public in March 2015. The pair dealt with break-up rumors in September 2015, as well.
The "Bounty Hunters" actor, who rose to international fame in 2009's "Boys over Flowers," is set to return to the small screen with SBS's "The Legend of the Blue Sea." The forthcoming drama, which co-stars Jun Ji Hyun, follows the one-of-a-kind story of a county magistrate and a mermaid.
"From the beginning stages, writer Park Ji Eun created characters matching Jun Ji Hyun and Lee Min Ho, thinking of them as the best couple," a representative from Culture Depot told MBN Star. "The lead actors also decided to work on the drama because they believe in the writer and the director. You can look forward to their chemistry, which will be beyond one's imagination."
Suzy, on the other hand, currently stars as No Eul in KBS 2TV's "Uncontrollably Fond" along with Kim Woo Bin. The 20-episode on-going drama follows the sassy-ardent love story between an arrogant celebrity, Shin Joon Young (Kim) and a materialistic-servile documentary producer, No Eul (Suzy).
