Mijoo is making things crystal clear—she's not dating pro baseball player Lee Jin-young from the Hanwha Eagles.
🚫 "They've never even met" says agency
On July 25, Antenna, Mijoo's agency, told Dispatch, "The dating rumors between Mijoo and Lee Jin-young are completely false. The two have never even met before."
Earlier that day, a media outlet reported that the singer and the Hanwha Eagles outfielder were in a relationship, describing them as a "three-year age-gap couple" born in 1994 and 1997.
💡 The 'evidence'? A similar lamp
The report cited a lamp as evidence—claiming that a light seen in one of Mijoo's YouTube videos looked similar to one in Lee Jin-young's social media post. Netizens pointed to it as a possible sign of a romantic connection.
⚾ Mijoo's just a loyal Eagles fan
Mijoo is well-known as a devoted Hanwha Eagles fan. Hailing from Okcheon, Chungbuk—her hometown team—she's shown love through appearances on baseball-themed shows and even the Eagles' official YouTube channel.
While she's cheered on Lee Jin-young and other Eagles players as a fan, Antenna made it clear that this admiration has been misunderstood. "It's upsetting that pure fan support is being twisted into dating rumors," the agency added.
