Singer Ok Ju-hyeon, formerly with all-girl pop group F.I.N.K.L., has fallen in love with the son of a Korean media company owner, it has been revealed. Ok dropped the news on a recent TV show. Identified only by his initial ¡°C,¡± the man is a Korean-American living in Los Angeles and was born in 1980, the same year as the singer. The two met as friends, but their emotions have evolved into love and they have been serious lovers since April. The two dial internationally to profess their love and sometimes cross the Pacific to see each other.
Ok revealed the news on the MBC TV talk show ¡°Nol Ruh Hwa¡± or ¡°Come to Play.¡± During the show, Ok confessed that she was dating the man, whom she described as a "nice guy" with the matching blood type ¡°A¡±.

As speculation grew to frenzied proportions, Ok posted a note on her homepage asking fans to calm down. She hinted that her boyfriend is not an entertainer. ¡°I don¡¯t want men who have nothing to do with me mentioned as my lover," she added. "I have built a great trust with this man, who shares my age. We have depended on each other for more than half a year.¡± Ok's agency Mnet Media said that the singer is currently in Los Angeles "taking a break", but declined to confirm if she was with her man. The singer is due to return home early next week, the agency said.
