Zico's agency said, "The rumors of Zico and Seolhyun are baseless. It's not worth responding to."
The reconciliation rumors emerged due to Seolhyun's recent Instagram Stories, which showed a short video taken at her house. Eagle-eyed fans saw a pair of shoes and claimed that the Yeezys spotted on Seolhyun's doormat seemed too big for them to be her own. Some fans believed the shoes were Zico's as he was frequently captured wearing the same style/color Yeezys.
However, other fans weren't convinced by the "evidence." A fan commented, "So many other celebrities have those shoes too?" A second fan posted, "Who cares lol." Another one added, "Nothing is for sure."
It was revealed in August of 2016 that Zico and Seolhyun were dating. They reportedly started dating in March 2016. However, in September 2016 the couple confirmed that they called it quits.
At the time, Seolhyun's label FNC Entertainment said in a statement, "The attention toward their relationship was too overwhelming, and they eventually drifted apart, leading to a breakup." A representative from Zico's label Seven Seasons, meanwhile, stated, "It's true that the two have recently broken up. The reason for their breakup is unknown, and is a personal matter."
