The figure skater is rumored to be in a relationship with a hockey player by the name of Kim Won Joong. It's said the two were able to grow close because they went to the same college and also shared the same ice rink during training in Korea. As figure skaters and hockey players practice at different times, it's difficult to run into each other, but with the common skating interest as well as being college buddies and also training for the Olympics, the two are said to have grown a bond.

Due to their busy schedules, the two are said to only meet up two or so times a month, but they do make sure to spend special occasions together like their birthdays or Christmas eve.

There have so far been no statements from the reps of both athletes, but netizens are already busy congratulating the two. Stay tuned for updates!
