Saga of Park Joo-hyun/Tae-yong dating rumors
On January 12, many speculations surfaced online stating that NCT leader Tae-yong and actress Park Joo-hyun were dating. Many accused the two of being in a relationship since they often teamed up to play online games and the actress was observed watching NCT’s performance from a designated family cubicle. However, 935 Entertainment, Park Joo-company, hyun’s, and SM Entertainment, the male singer’s agency, have both refuted the reports.
In addition, 935 Entertainment stated:
“Park Joo-hyun adores games as a pastime and is so fond of them that she uploaded a video on her YouTube channel on online games like League of Legends. She and NCT’s Tae-yong are just pals who like to play video games together. Park Joo-hyun is an extremely sociable person with an extroverted attitude, thus she has many friends and maintains a vast network.”
The majority of NCT fans did not believe the allegations for a variety of reasons, one of which being that the Kick It singer would not publish a photo of his girlfriend on social media.

In 2019, the K-pop star re-debuted in the supergroup SuperM, a collaboration between SM Entertainment and Capitol Records.
Park Joo-hyun, on the other hand, made her cinematic debut with The Dude in Me in 2019. She eventually went on to star in a number of dramas and films, including Extracurricular, Love All Play, Zombie Detective, Seoul Vibe, Silence, A Piece of Your Mind, Mouse, and others. She is presently starring with Kim Young-dae in the MBC drama The Forbidden Marriage as So-rang.
