Lee Hongki Admits He's Dating But Then Denies It 2015

Yes, he said it. F.T. Island's Lee Hongki, the singer and actor who played Jeremy in the drama "You're Beautiful," has admitted that he is seeing someone. But maybe he did not mean to.He was the first star to let something private slip on the new eight-episode FNC Entertainment reality show "Cheomdamdung 111."
On a preview for the show, the singer and actor was asked if he had a girlfriend.
Without thinking for long he said that he did.
The other F.T. Island members were surprised.
"You do," they asked. And they wanted to know when he started dating.
Lee Hongki said that it hadn't been long.
The director wanted to record his statement about the girlfriend again but apparently Lee Hongki had fallen into the reality show trap and not realized that he was being recorded. It's easy to let down your guard on a reality show and say something you probably should not have said.
"You recorded that? No," said Lee Hongki.
Later he commented on twitter that he did not really have a girlfriend.
"I am alone," he wrote.
His twitter statement left fans to wonder if he was really dating or not. Did he have to correct the statement because he had spoken too quickly on the show? Or had he said he had a girlfriend to promote the show's ratings?
In the past the singer and actor has been open about the way his career interfered with his relationships. He said he broke up with girlfriends at least three times because of his musical career. He dated his first love during his trainee days and was so busy that the relationship suffered. When his girl broke up with him, he almost stopped singing because he was so upset.
"I cried like crazy,' he said.
As Lee Hongki is going to be a regular on the "Cheomdamdung 111" show, he should think about what he will say in the future. The show will not be scripted so the agency's stars and employees, from the assistants to the CEO, will be encouraged to adlib.
According to a CJ E&M representative, the show will give viewers an honest glimpse of the stars in their everyday lives but for some that may not always be a good thing. The producers promised some interesting interactions between Lee Hongki and the agency's CEO.
"FNC's superstar and cute bad boy Lee Hongki and CEO Hang Sung Ho have a Tom-and- Jerry-like relationship that will be a big source of laughter," said the CJ E&M representative.
Other celebrities that will be featured on the show are Jung Yong Hwa and CNBlue, actor Lee Dong Gun, comedian Song Eun Yi, director Park Hwang Hyun, singer-songwriter Juniel and the idol girl group AOA.
