This dating news has taken everyone by surprise. Korean actors Kim Woo Bin and Shin Min Ah have confirmed that they are dating.

Both their management agencies released separate statements to confirm the news about Woo Bin dating Min Ah. Dispatch was the first to report that the two actors, who began their careers as models, have been dating each other since the last two months.

"The two actors are seeing each other with good feelings," Woo Bin's agency, Sidus HQ, said, as quoted by Drama Fever. The statement said that Woo Bin, 26, and Min Ah, 31, met during the shooting of an ad and became close, and soon after, they started dating as they developed good feelings for each other. "Please look upon them warmly so the two actors may continue their relationship and cheer each other on as colleagues and lovers in the future," the statement added.

Min Ah's agency, Mother Company Entertainment, has also confirmed the news, saying that the two are indeed dating. Korea Boo quoted the agency's statement as saying, "after continuing their friendship after the photoshoot, they have progressed into a more serious relationship after confirming each other's feelings."

Dispatch reported that Woo Bin and Shin Min Ah officially began dating after May, according to Korea Boo. Quoting a close friend, the Korean magazine reported that they developed feelings for each other after doing an advertisement in February and started dating after May.  

The clothing brand that they were shooting for is Giordano, and according to Dispatch, Woo Bin would delay his shooting so that Min Ah would complete her shooting earlier. She reportedly became his "first priority" for everything.       

Woo Bin, who starred in Korean drama "The Heirs" (2013), was previously dating model Yoo Ji Ahn. The two met at a magazine photoshoot in 2011 and confirmed their relationship in 2013. However, the well-matched couple broke up in January 2014 because of their busy schedules that made it difficult for them to meet often. This is the first time Min Ah has publically acknowledged that she is dating someone.

Meanwhile, the actress is set to return to television later this year after a gap of three years. She has been cast opposite So Ji Sub for an upcoming romantic comedy "Oh My God."
