South Korea national football team player Lee Kang-in (23, Paris Saint-Germain) has been caught up in dating rumors with Park Sang-hyo (25), who is two years older and from the "5th generation of Doosan Group."
On the 9th, Dispatch reported, "Lee Kang-in and Park Sang-hyo are dating." Born in 1999, Park Sang-hyo is the daughter of Park Jin-won, Vice Chairman of Doosan Bobcat Korea, and is two years older than Lee Kang-in. Vice Chairman Park is the eldest son of Park Yong-sung, former chairman of Doosan Group.
The photos released that day showed Lee Kang-in wrapping his arm around Park Sang-hyo's shoulder as they walked affectionately through the streets of Paris, France. Photos were also revealed of the two sitting side by side at a restaurant known as a famous dining spot in Paris. Their dates were said to be no different from those of any other couple. They were reportedly visiting popular restaurants, watching games in person, and expressing their affection with couple items. The two recently enjoyed dates in Korea as well. They watched the 2024 professional baseball KBO League game between the Hanwha Eagles and Doosan Bears at Jamsil Baseball Stadium together with Lee Kang-in's older sister.
According to reports, Lee Kang-in and Park Sang-hyo first met earlier this year in Paris. Lee Kang-in's older sister got to know Park Sang-hyo at a Korean community gathering in Paris and introduced her to Lee Kang-in, and their relationship developed into a romance while watching Lee Kang-in's games, the media reported.
The fact that Pablo Gozalves and C?sar Ba?acloy, who are from Valencia's youth team, follow Park Sang-hyo on social media also adds weight to the dating rumors. The media stated, "Lee Kang-in and Park Sang-hyo are known to have gone from close friends to an official couple." Neither side has made any particular statement regarding this matter.
Meanwhile, this is not the first time Lee Kang-in has been caught up in dating rumors. In January, Lee Kang-in was rumored to be dating actress Lee Na-eun (24), formerly of the group April. According to reports at the time, Lee Kang-in and Lee Na-eun enjoyed three dates last November near Lee Na-eun's car or residence. Lee Na-eun's agency denied the dating rumors, stating, "The two only know each other."
