Actor Jung Eun-chae is dating designer and TV personality Kim Chung-jae, both celebrities’ agencies confirmed on Thursday.

“Kim Chung-jae and Jung Eun-chae are dating,” Jung’s agency, Project Hosoo, told local media outlets Thursday morning, following a report from the local news outlet Maeil Business’s entertainment platform, Star Today, which disclosed their relationship.

“They are getting to know each other on good terms.”

However, the agencies declined to disclose the duration of the relationship, citing that it is “related to personal matters.”

Jung began her acting career in sci-fi action film “Haunters” (2010). She gained recognition with director Hong Sang-soo’s film “Nobody’s Daughter Haewon” (2013) and has since appeared in movies and drama series, including “The Guest” (2018), “Pachinko” (2022) and “Anna” (2022). Her next series, “Jeong Nyeon,” is slated to release in October this year.

Kim is a product designer and TV personality. He first appeared on the entertainment scene on MBC reality show “Home Alone” (2013-) in 2017 as a close friend to webtoonist and entertainer Kian84. He signed with his current label, Speeker Entertainment, in 2017 and has continued his TV career, mostly appearing in comedy shows.
