A local outlet claims the two have been together for about a year, adding that they’ve introduced each other to friends as a couple despite their eight-year age gap.
When asked about the rumor, Yoon’s agency PA Entertainment said it could not confirm details of her private life.
Yoon debuted in 2012 with DSP’s girl group PURETTY, later appearing on "KARA Project" and "Produce 101." She re-debuted with APRIL in 2016 and has since transitioned to acting, with credits including "Time to be together 1:11," "Korea–Khitan War" and more.
Lee is a former South Korean national badminton star who won mixed doubles gold at the 2008 Beijing Olympics, men’s doubles bronze at the 2012 London Olympics, and both team gold and men’s doubles silver at the 2014 Incheon Asian Games. He married actress Byun Soo-mi in 2017 and divorced a year later; he has been raising his daughter as a single dad.
