Korean actress and former Girl's Day member Hyeri is once again in the spotlight, as rumors circulate about a possible relationship with dancer Woo Tae. The two reportedly grew close while working together on the 2024 film Victory, but both parties have declined to confirm the speculation.
On July 1, rumors emerged suggesting that Hyeri and dancer Woo Tae, known for his appearance on Mnet's Street Man Fighter, have been dating for nearly a year. The two are said to have met during the filming of the 2024 dance-centric film Victory, where Woo Tae served as a choreography instructor and collaborated closely with Hyeri.
n response to the reports, both Hyeri's agency, Sublime, and Woo Tae's representatives told Xportsnews, "This is a private matter, and we cannot confirm it."
Further fueling the speculation, fans noted that Woo Tae appeared in a video released on Hyeri's YouTube channel on June 27, where he taught her choreography for her first fan meeting. Additionally, Woo Tae had previously shared on social media about his collaborative work with Hyeri on Victory, which tells the story of Pil-seon (played by Hyeri) and Mina (played by Park Se-wan), whose lives revolve around dance and who find encouragement and support through cheerleading.
Hyeri, who debuted in 2010 with the girl group Girl's Day, has recently experienced a resurgence in popularity through U+tv's Friendly Rivalry, a teen mystery thriller that aired earlier this year and garnered significant attention both domestically and internationally.
This latest dating rumor marks Hyeri's third publicized relationship speculation. In 2013, she acknowledged a relationship with Tony Ahn, and in 2017, she confirmed a relationship with actor Ryu Jun-yeol, which ended in 2023. The lack of confirmation regarding her current rumored relationship has led to various speculations among fans and netizens.
