Specifically, the two posted a picture of a very happy couple holding hands on their personal pages. Below the post, HyunA also wrote: "Please take care of us", but later deleted this sentence. The female singer also liked a fan's comment: "I support you, let's have a beautiful love...!" but then he also gave up liking.

In addition, the male idol also switched his personal account to private mode to avoid negative comments.
