Korean idols 2AM's Seulong and Wonder Girls' Sohee have denied they are dating, downplaying a report from early in the day which said that the two are a couple. "Sohee and Seulong are not in a relationship though they are close colleagues and have known each other since they were both trainees," an official with JYP Entertainment told 10Asia over the phone on Wednesday.An official with Big Hit entertainment, the agency which oversees 2AM's activities, gave a similar response, "The two are just close colleagues and we feel that this kind of story came about because they have known each other a long time." Seulong made his debut as one of the members in his four-member ballad group 2AM in 2008. The group is currently busy focusing on their activities in Japan with their single "Never let you go" which has placed in third on Oricon's weekly music chart. Sohee, trained and discovered by JYP Entertainment, made her debut in Wonder Girls in 2007. The girls have produced a number of hit songs including "Tell Me," "So Hot" and "Nobody." They recently attended a red carpet event in the United States for the premiere of their U.S. TV-movie "The Wonder Girls.” ※ Any copying, republication or redistribution of 10Asia's content is expressly prohibited without prior consent of 10Asia.
