'Scarlet Heart'(Moon Lovers): Kang Ha Neul Reveals Feelings For IU

Actor Lee Jun Ki shut down rumors he's dating singer-actress IU after her breakup with Jang Ki Ha, her boyfriend of four years.

The 34-year-old actor denied he has nothing to do with IU and Jang Ki Ha putting an end to their relationship and dismissed rumors he's currently dating the 23-year-old songstress.

The actor's management label Namoo Actors finally addressed the circulating rumors Tuesday as netizens kept posting on the actor's social media account.

"We didn't think it was necessary to respond to the dating rumors, but people keep commenting on Lee Jun Ki's SNS about it," allkpop quoted Namoo Actors as saying.

"Lee Jun Ki and IU were co-stars in the SBS drama 'Moon Lovers: Scarlet Heart Ryeo'. We ask that you don't misunderstand as the two are simply close colleagues," they added.

They maintained that the rumors only started because the actors showed a great on-screen chemistry in their drama.

Netizens have noticed the chemistry between Lee Jun Ki and IU, who co-starred as the lead couple for the SBS drama "Moon Lovers: Scarlet Heart Ryeo." Dating rumors began circulating even before the young singer called it quits to her four-year-relationship with her indie singer and radio host boyfriend.

According to allkpop, the netizens took to the actor's social media account shortly after IU and Jang Ki Ha announced their breakup.

"IU fans not allowed here!!" wrote one netizen on Lee Jun Ki's Instagram page.

"I hope Lee Jun Ki is not tied into this in any way. IU and Lee Jun Ki do appear close, however, I don't think it's due to Jang Kiha's breakup," said another.

The musical couple broke up two weeks ago after a series of breakups and reconciliations.

"It is true IU and Jang Kiha have separated. They have decided to remain as good friends," stated their labels.
