As mentioned before, the actor had used Ailee's Korean name rather than her stage name in his tweet cheering on her new song, which raised questions about how close he and the singer are and whether they are dating.
When asked about this, Ailee said during a filming of a show, "I've never even met Park Ki Woong. I was also surprised upon seeing articles about him supporting me. I found out that Park Ki Woong is close friends with my manager and is a big fan of mine. So I'm very thankful for the support."
Park Ki Woong seemed a bit puzzled by her statement as well as this whole situation, since according to him, Ailee's side was the one that had asked him to post the supportive tweet. The actor wrote, " Ah, about yesterday's happening ^^;; Ailee's reps were the ones who asked me to promote her making it seem like she and I are close. There were a lot of articles about that yesterday, and as someone who was just helping, I was kind of baffled by it. However, Ailee personally called me and we went over the parts that weren't conveyed clearly. I still support her nevertheless! U&I is good ^^".
It seems like there was perhaps a miscommunication between Ailee and her own agency reps, leading to these misunderstandings. But like the actor wrote in his latest tweet, it seems they've cleared the air with their phone call.
