On June 22, representatives of Daesung's R&D Company spoke out to deny dating rumors between Daesung and Heo Youngji. Daesung Big Bang's management company affirmed that the two are just "close colleagues".
Rumors began to appear last weekend, after some images and videos recording Daesung sitting next to Heo Youngji at the concert within the framework of MAMAMOO's "FORWARD" world tour in Seoul were shared.
When seeing both of them watching the concert, a part of netizens questioned the relationship between Daesung and Heo Youngji.
However, the management company said that the actual context is not like images that are cut and pasted or focused on the two artists separately. According to R&D Company, Hyojung of OH MY GIRL was also present at the performance with Daesung and Heo Youngji. The fact that the videos only focused on Daesung and Heo Youngji made many people misunderstand that this was a private date.
The company also said that Daesung and Heo Youngji knew each other before through Daesung's private program. Therefore, the relationship between the two is just a close colleague.
While Taeyang is married, G-Dragon is continuously rumored to be dating beauties, this is the first time dating rumors of Daesung have appeared. Therefore, this rumor is enthusiastically supported by male idol fans.
Over the past time, Daesung has had many notable activities. In April, the group Big Bang appeared on the Coachella stage with a lineup including G-Dragon, Taeyang and Daesung. This performance is considered the opening milestone for the group's 20th anniversary world tour.
Meanwhile, Heo Youngji continues to be active in the entertainment industry. She is expected to appear as a storyteller in the reality horror talk show "The Psychopath I Met", which airs from July 12.
