'Dosu-co 3' graduate model Yeo Yeon-hee (34) made headlines by directly denying dating rumors with star chef Son Jong-won (42).

Earlier on the 13th, Yeo Yeon-hee posted a Q&A video titled "I'm Doing That Tough Survival Twice" on her YouTube channel.

In the video, she mentioned "recent dating rumors," drawing attention to the speculation about her relationship with chef Son Jong-won. The rumors had previously spread after a photo of Son Jong-won holding a poodle was released on social media. The pink-scented scandal arose because Yeo Yeon-hee's pet dog, Round, shares the same breed as Son's dog.

In response, Yeo Yeon-hee firmly denied the rumors, stating, "I've wanted to say this somewhere, and it's good timing. I should say it on my YouTube. No. Absolutely, absolutely not."

Regarding her relationship with Son Jong-won, she honestly replied, "He's actually an older brother I know."

Yeo Yeon-hee continued, "Apparently, posts claiming we're dating have been circulating. Coincidentally, the puppy photo posted by 'oppa' (Son Jong-won) looks very much like our Round. But they are not the same dog. I heard reporters called my former company in large numbers. However, the dating rumors aren't particularly offensive. It's because 'oppa' is so popular," she spoke bluntly.

She also added, "I still remember a comment asking, 'Does she only date and not work as a model?' Someone said, 'I thought Son Jong-won would date a smart woman, but he's dating a dummy.' I'm smart, you know? Because I'm smart, I'm still working," she retorted at the malicious commenters.

Yeo Yeon-hee first gained recognition by finishing third in the 2012 OnStyle model survival show 'Challenge! Supermodel Korea 3' (Dosu-co 3). She is currently appearing on tvN's fashion creator survival show 'Kill It: Style Creator Daejeon-jjaeng' (hereinafter 'Kill It'). 'Kill It' airs every Tuesday at 10:10 p.m.
