ATEEZ's San Says Dating Rumors Come With Being Successful

ATEEZ's San has addressed his recent dating rumors in Milan with a lighthearted response.

A preview for the next episode of the YouTube talk show "Salon Drip," released Oct. 6, showed San appearing alongside fellow ATEEZ member Wooyoung. During the clip, San mentioned that he had just returned from Milan.

Host Jang Do-yeon then brought up recent headlines about San personally addressing dating rumors. Rather than appearing uncomfortable, San responded, "I guess that's what happens when you become successful."

Wooyoung quickly joined in on the joke, teasing San about his newfound fame. San laughed off the comments, saying he did not mind being mocked by his longtime friend. When Milan came up again, Wooyoung joked, "Stop showing off. We know you went to Dolce & Gabbana."

The exchange comes after photos and videos of San walking with a woman in Milan circulated online last month and sparked dating speculation.

KQ Entertainment denied the rumors, explaining that the woman was a local brand representative accompanying San while he shopped for items needed for his schedule. The agency added that San's manager and a local security guard were also present.

San later personally denied the dating speculation through a fan communication platform.
