Hoyeon, from Squid Game, speaks out about dating rumors with Devin Booker
Hoyeon and Devin Booker aren’t playing the same game.
The Squid Game actress set the record straight on rumors she’s romantically involved with the basketball star, which sparked in April from an alleged screenshot showing him leaving a flirty comment on her Instagram page.
After the viral screenshot was later reported to be fake, Hoyeon confirmed he didn’t slide into her DMs. In fact, she doesn’t watch the NBA at all.
As the South Korean actress told Elle in an interview published June 26, “I don’t even know who he is.”
While he’s not on Hoyeon’s radar, the Phoenix Suns player did previously capture the heart of Kendall Jenner, who he dated off and on for two years until they broke up in 2022.
After first splitting in June of that year, the pair had a brief reconciliation.
“They worked out their issues and decided they want to move forward and be together,” a source told E! News in July. “They moved on and it’s going really well.”
