Allegedly Intimate, SHINee's Taemin Denies Dating Noze

JAKARTA - SHINee's Taemin denied rumors that their artist was dating the Noze dancer. This news was revealed the day after the rumors circulated on the internet.

On April 15 yesterday, photos circulated in the online community showing men and women suspected of being Taemin and Noze. The two of them went together and went hand in hand and were seen hugging.

The next day, Big Planet Made (BPM) Entertainment responded by saying, "We are checking the photo in question to confirm the issue."

Thursday, April 17, BPM released a new statement that they denied the two were dating. They said the two were just good friends.

"We apologize for the delay in confirming matters due to Taemin's ongoing schedule," said BPM on the same day.

"Both of them are close colleagues who work together," he said.

The agency also confirmed that they hoped the public would not make speculation regarding Taemin and other news.

"We respectfully request to avoid making excessive speculation. Thank you for your understanding," concluded the agency.

Noze is a dancer who becomes a background dancer for several Taemin songs.

On the other hand, Taemin will hold an encore concert from his latest tour at the end of this month in Seoul, South Korea.
