Rumors of a romantic relationship between actors Jung Woo-sung and Shin Hyun-bin have been fueled by a shared green cap, which has now been identified as a couple's item.
On October 9, it was confirmed that the item linking the two stars is a green cap, which has been spotted on their social media. Both parties have denied the relationship rumors, stating, "These allegations are unfounded," and clarified that the cap is not a couple's item. The dating rumors gained traction as netizens pointed out similar designs of caps worn by the two and claimed Shin Hyun-bin visited a wine bar frequently frequented by Jung Woo-sung.
Jung Woo-sung and Shin Hyun-bin previously starred as lovers in the Genie TV drama "Say I Love You," which aired in November last year. This connection sparked speculation that they might have been dating since filming began. Jung played a painter with hearing impairment, while Shin portrayed an unknown actress with a contrasting character, leading fans to wonder about their off-screen relationship.
In reflecting on their on-screen chemistry, Jung Woo-sung expressed a desire for their character's age difference to be minimal, leading him to cast Shin after recognizing her understanding of the script's themes. Meanwhile, Shin appreciated the collaborative atmosphere during filming and the trust they shared in their performances. "He gave a lot to the role," she added, highlighting their strong acting partnership.
As for their upcoming projects, Jung Woo-sung is busy filming the Disney+ series "Made in Korea," set to be released next year. Meanwhile, Shin Hyun-bin is gearing up for the premiere of director Yeon Sang-ho's film "Face."
