JYP Entertainment released a statement regarding the latest dating rumors involving TWICE's Jihyo.

On March 25, JYP Entertainment stated, "It is difficult to verify because it is a private matter," regarding the dating rumors between TWICE's Jihyo and Olympic skeleton racer Yun Sung Bin.

Yun Sung Bin's agency, All That Sports, also stated, "He's not an active athlete, we ask for your understanding as it is a private matter that is difficult to confirm. Thank you."

Earlier, an exclusive report from a media outlet sparked rumors that the two were dating. According to reports, the two met through a mutual acquaintance and grew close due to their shared interest in exercising.

The exclusive report claimed that Jihyo and Yun Sung Bin's favorite dating location is Geumho-dong in Seongdong-gu, Seoul. They live just a short 5-minute drive apart and often enjoy intimate dates by visiting each other's homes. A tip from a reader of Sway noted that Yun Sung Bin frequently visits Jihyo's house, where they naturally show affection towards each other.

A source from the entertainment industry, who is acquainted with both Jihyo and Yun Sung Bin, revealed, "Jihyo and Yun Sung Bin are both fitness enthusiasts. Yun Sung Bin's guidance in exercises brought them closer, swiftly evolving their bond into a romantic relationship."

This relationship between Jihyo and Yun Sung Bin marks the second couple to emerge from MBC's 'I Live Alone,' where both are featured cast members. Yun Sung Bin joined the show in June of the previous year, and Jihyo followed in August, earning considerable love and support from viewers.
