However, Glorious Entertainment released an official statement not long after these rumors began, denying the situation.

“With regards to the dating rumors between Ji Chang Wook and Kim Joo Ri, the fans are making the wrong assumption. Ji Chang Wook and Kim Joo Ri are just close and they have a number of other mutual friends they see on a regular basis. On the topic of alleged couple accessories, the necklace was a gift from Chinese fans to Ji Chang Wook. We are not sure if Kim Joo Ri owns the same necklace – the sunglasses are simply trending right now and the stylist brought one for Ji Chang Wook.”

Kim Joo Ri became an internet sensation after becoming Miss Korea pageant in 2009, while Ji Chang Wook’s popularity skyrocketed after his most recent role as Seo Jung Ho in KBS action drama Healer.
