There have been rumors circulating that actress Lee Da Hee was dating CEO Goo Bon Kwon of her agency Management Goo.

Previously, the media had reported, "Since confirmation of each other's feelings in 2012, Lee Da Hee and CEO Goo Bon Kwon had been nurturing their love for two years."

CEO Goo Bon Kwon directly addressed these rumors on the 15th, saying, "I am certainly not in a dating relationship with Lee Da Hee.  Lee Da Hee is a fine actress. Since her emergence as an actress, we have been good companions and that is all. We are not a couple."

He also said, "I believe the subject has come up because Lee Da Hee is lately showing a good image as an actress.  I was shocked to hear about a dating rumor."
