Irene trailed off, saying, "I'll get married someday, but not right now."

Actor Kim Youngdae (3) and actress Lee Naeun (27), formerly of the group APRIL, were spotted spending time together. With about a month left before his military enlistment, the two were seen meeting closely, leading to dating rumors. However, both sides denied it, saying they are 'just friends.'

According to Star Day on the 26th, Kim Youngdae and Lee Naeun were seen spending their time together on the afternoon of the 25th at a drugstore near Gwangnaru in Gwangjin-gu, Seoul.

According to witnesses, the two visited the store around 4PM, when there were relatively few people, and enjoyed shopping trip for daily items like toothbrushes. They were wearing casual running clothes with caps pulled down, and instead of hiding their faces with masks, they appeared comfortable and affectionate like any ordinary couple while browsing the store.

Reportedly, they also created an atmosphere closer than just friends as they chatted warmly throughout the shopping trip and even helped choose items for each other. Gwangjin-gu, where Kim Youngdae lives, and Guri, where Lee Naeun spends most of her time, are neighboring areas separated by the Han River, making it easy for them to share daily routines or light exercise.

Their connection dates back to the 2019 MBC 'Extraordinary You,' where they acted as a couple. They reportedly have remained in contact since then, and now they are drawing attention with this recent meeting just before his enlistment.

Regarding this, Kim Youngdae's side initially told Star Today, "We don't know the details as it's the artist's private life," and latter added, "They are close acquaintances who have known each other for a long time." Lee Naeun's side also stated, "They often run together with several other people," and clarified, "They are not dating. They are just close friends."

Born in 1996, Kim Youngdae is scheduled to enlist for active duty this April. He debuted in 2017 through the web drama 'Secret Crushes: Special Edition,' and solidified his position as lead actor through 'Extraordinary You' and 'Penthouse' series. Recently, he has been meeting global audiences through TVING's 'Dear X' and Netflix's 'Boyfriend on Demand.'

Lee Naeun also gained recognition after landing her first leading role in 'Extraordinary You.' Since then, she has continued her acting career in dramas like 'The Defects.' Regarding past allegations of internal conflict within her group, the legal dispute concluded with her being cleared of charges. She is currently appearing on the variety show 'Trend Shopper Season 5.'

Curious about what was inside, she asked and Junhu confidently replied, "It's pistachio cream and fried kadayif noodles."

Actress Park Minyoung shared a terrifying story during a drama filming.

On the 24th, a video titled "Riding the salon breeze, Park Minyoung and Wi Hajoon set sail energetically!" was posted on Youtube. In the video, Park Minyoung and Wi Hajoon appeared on 'Salon Drip' as the stars of the drama 'Siren's Kiss.'

Park Minyoung recalled a terrifying moment during the filming of her previous work, 'Marry My Husband.' She surprised everyone by saying, "There was a scene where I had to jump into the water without a breathing device to pull a friend out. I filmed it myself without a stunt double."

She continued, "My eyesight isn't great, and I took out my contact lenses, so I had to act while relying on faint lights. Halfway through, I couldn't endure it anymore, so I tried to come up for air. In that moment, I almost died," adding, "Because I was so light at the time, I had to wear weights to stay down. That made it harder for me to rise to the surface quickly. Filming that scene made me realize that being an actor is never easy."

When Wi Hajoon admired her, saying, " It's amazing that you did that yourself," she replied, "There are stunt doubles, but it's too obvious when they're used." She made everyone laugh by adding, "I'm actually good at swimming and I like working out. But since them, I don't stay I'm good at swimming anymore. Now if someone asks if I'm good at any sports, I just say no," drawing laughter.

She also shared, "Even though 'High Kick!' was also difficult to film, it was a gift that opened up my life. 'Sungkyunkwan Scandal' was also the project that marked the second chapter of my acting career," adding, "The projects I struggled through are the ones that leave positive impacts and make me dream again. That's why I keep on taking new challenges."

Meanwhile, Park Minyoung previously revealed that she lost her weight to 37kg to portray a terminally ill character in tvN's 'Marry My Husband' back in January 2024.

In particular, Jeon Somin revealed a story about meeting Eunhyuk again later a a broadcasting station, saying, "I was happy to see him, but he called me by a nickname I didn't even remember. Since my name is Jeon Somin, my friends would call me 'Jeon-So' for short, and eventually they called me 'Jeot-so' (NB: Dairy cow). It's very unpleasant."

She added, "Because he suddenly called me that at the station, thing became a bit awkward between us."
