The red carpet was ablaze with the flash of cameras as Kevin Kyung-Woo, the renowned K-pop sensation and actor, made his way down the elegant pathway. Dressed in a sharp suit that accentuated his enigmatic persona, he walked with a confident stride, flanked by his composed manager.

Amidst the excitement and cheers from fans, a bold reporter seized the opportunity to ask the burning question that had been circulating in the gossip columns – the rumored romance between Kevin and Actress Chae Won.

"Kevin, there have been rumors about you dating Actress Chae Won. Can you share any insights into your relationship?" the reporter inquired, thrusting a microphone towards the stoic artist.

Kevin's expression remained unmoved, his icy demeanor not giving away any hint of emotion. He glanced at the reporter, his dark eyes reflecting a cool detachment. The crowd hushed, eager to catch every word of his response.

"I Don't comment on my personal life and those rumors are just that-rumors," Kevin replied in a measured tone, his voice cutting through the buzz of the crowd. "As for the rumors, we understand that curiosity, but we are here to talk about Kevin's film tonight." Kevin's Manager Mr.Ma said to the media.

The simplicity of his words carried a weight that silenced the murmurs among the spectators. His manager, Min stood by, observing the scene with a practiced calm, knowing that this was not the first time Kevin had faced such inquiries.

The reporter pressed on, attempting to extract more details, but Kevin skillfully deflected each question with a controlled finesse. He remained an enigma, refusing to let the public glimpse into his personal life.
