Dancer Vata has addressed growing speculation surrounding his relationship with actress Ji Ye-eun, as his agency issued a firm denial of circulating rumors following the couple’s dating confirmation.
On April 15, Vata’s agency released an official statement clarifying that several claims spreading online were false. “We had refrained from responding as the matter was not worth addressing,” the agency said. “However, some outlets have recently reported unverified information, and we want to make it clear that these claims are not true.”
Agency refutes timeline rumors, warns legal action
The agency specifically denied allegations that Vata had been in a six-year relationship prior to dating Ji Ye-eun, stating that such claims were unfounded. It further clarified that any previous relationship had ended three years ago, contradicting rumors suggesting overlap between relationships.
“We have never been in a six-year relationship, and the timeline being circulated is incorrect,” the statement read. The agency added that it is prepared to take strong legal action if the spread of false information continues.
The clarification comes amid increasing online speculation, with various communities raising questions about the timing of Vata’s relationship with Ji Ye-eun.
Dating confirmation followed by online speculation
Earlier on April 13, Vata’s agency confirmed that he and Ji Ye-eun were in a relationship, describing them as maintaining a “good relationship with mutual affection.”
Following the announcement, however, rumors began to circulate suggesting that Vata had started dating the actress shortly after ending a long-term relationship. These claims quickly spread across online platforms, prompting the agency’s response.
Rising profile adds to public attention
Vata, born in 1994, is known as the leader of the dance crew We Dem Boyz. He gained wider recognition after appearing on the Mnet competition program Street Man Fighter in 2022, where his performances drew attention from both viewers and industry professionals.
As his public profile has grown, so has scrutiny of his personal life. The agency’s latest statement signals a firm stance against misinformation, emphasizing accuracy in reporting and warning against the continued spread of unverified claims.
With both the relationship confirmation and subsequent clarification now made public, attention is likely to shift toward how the couple navigates their relationship under heightened public interest.
