Actor Ryu Duk Hwan and actress Park Ha Sun were recently spotted in close quarters at a resort pool in Singapore, adding fuel to the rumors that the two recently became a pair.

Earlier, both agencies behind the celebrities had denied dating rumors, saying, "The two of them are merely close friends" and "They visited Singapore with eight of their acquaintances".

However, as reports and pictures started coming out from Singapore that the two of them were spotted with each other, the rumors gained fresh credence.

To the re-ignited rumors, the agencies' responses remained largely the same. "Park Ha Sun's relative lives in Singapore, so they went to visit with friends," said a representative for the actress. "We plan to check whether or not the person in the photo is really the correct person, but in the meantime, we ask that everyone refrain from blowing this out of proportion."
