Jin-woon says “he’s been dating”

It turns out though that Jin-woon’s significant other is not a girl but the drums!

A representative from the cable program, “Food Lover Expedition Team (식신원정대),” reported to multiple press sources that, “Jin-woon of 2AM has been dating for a month.” This sparked the curiosity of many netizens and the heartbreak for many Jin-woon fans. The curious fans and netizens went on a rampage, trying to dig up any dirt on the mystery girl, but failed to find any information. Eventually, a number of fans began to call JYP Entertainment to find out if the news was in fact true.
Luckily, Jin-woon’s fans were reassured by a JYP representative that it was indeed just a rumor. The news of Jin-woon dating, turned out to be a marketing tactic that the cable program used to fish viewers into watching their program. The marketing team had manipulated the words of Jin-woon, who had stated that he was in love with learning how to play the drums and spent a lot of time practicing to play.
Relieved yet upset fans expressed their anger on the program’s homepage for starting gossip about Jin-woon’s dating status for publicity purposes. It looks like what the program thought would be a good way to reel in viewers has turned around to bite them in the butt. How is that nobody from the marketing team even considered how enraged these fangirls would get if they heard news that their celebrity crush was taken?!

    Yeah the company lied but I don’t blame them for “starting rumors” that’s all the fans. The best way to kill a rumor is to not talk about or listen to it…Or wait til you actually see the program to see what they’re talking about in the first place.
