After confirming with Hyeri, we have learned that the two previously were of sunbae-hoobae relationship, but in March, during the early stage of Girl's Day's full length album comeback, [Hyeri] was contacted about seeing each other, and attracted to his gentle nature and kind manners, they met a couple of times and talked with one another.

From what we know, they've exchanged advices and consolations about their daily lives and the entertainment industry. Hyeri is currently having a hard time due to all the attention upon the two.

We request that assumptions and exaggerated stories do not come about from all of you and the media, and we once again apologize for worrying fans."
