EXID’s agency Banana Culture Entertainment commented, “Hyelin and Minhyuk have been close friends since they were young. As a result, there were rumors among fans that the two are dating.”

The agency explained that she made the comment to clarify misunderstandings.

MONSTA X’s agency Starship Entertainment also responded, “Minhyuk and Hyelin are not dating. They went to the same academy during their trainee days, but they are not anything more or less than that. We found out about the rumors for the first time through articles.”
