KEY POINTS

  • Park Seo Joon is rumored to be dating singer, actress and social media star Xooos
  • Xooos first debuted as an actress before rising to fame on YouTube
  • She reportedly signed with the entertainment agency Wavy last year

South Korean actor Park Seo Joon has been romantically linked to singer and social media star Xooos.

An unnamed industry source told South Korean outlet JTBC Entertainment News Tuesday that the 34-year-old "Itaewon Class" star is dating the YouTuber. International Business Times could not independently verify the information.

However, photos of the rumored couple allegedly going on dates in Seoul, South Korea, made the rounds online, while a since-deleted snap of them together with friends in London last year resurfaced, fueling the speculation.

Park's agency Awesome Entertainment did not confirm or deny the rumors, saying in a statement to several local media outlets that "it will be hard to confirm information about the actor's private life," according to Koreaboo.
