Uee decided to delete her Instagram account (@uieing) on Friday, July 14 after she admitted to dating Kangnam. She and her label Yeoreum Entertainment previously denied the dating rumors twice, before finally admitting it to media outlets.
A spokesperson for Yeoreum Entertainment said, "[UEE and Kangnam] just recently began dating with romantic feelings and are in the beginning stages, so we are beign careful with the sudden reports. To be considerate of the other side, we denied the rumors at first, but after discussing the matter with both sides, we've decided to come forward with it."
A rep for Kangnam's label, meanwhile, added, "It's true that [Kangnam] is dating UEE. We gave no comments previously to be considerate of the other side."
Uee and Kangnam sparked dating rumors after Dispatch released photos of video of the couple on an evening date. They allegedly got to know each other while filming "Laws of the Jungle in New Zealand", then turned into lovers three months ago.
Shortly after the first dating reports emerged, Uee took to Instagram to address the rumor. She posted a photo of her upcoming drama "Manhole", captioning it, "Filming! I'm truly flustered by the sudden phone call!! It's true that I became close with Kangnam oppa through 'Jungle' and got together with him for meals, and we all met up comfortably too."
The former After School member added, "But if you just assume that as dating,, it makes me sad. Everyone!! If I actually find a romantic partner, I will let you know!! Right now, I'm working hard!!!"
Prior to her relationship with Kangnam, Uee was romantically linked to Lee Sangyoon. The couple split in January.
