He continued talking about people's perceptions of him, revealing that some questioned his sexual orientation. �He said, "I played a eunuch in 'Rooftop Prince' and I do some homosexual acting with Seulong this time, so people are misunderstanding a bit in that area. �I'm close to Park Seo Joon, so there were even rumors about whether we were dating. �That's not it, at all." �

He and Park Seo Joon had previously acted together, showing a cute bromance, in fun sitcom, 'Family,' which was actually pretty good, so fans should watch! �It appears since then, they've remained very close, constantly showing support and making fans go "aw" at their friendship.
