After JunJin and Lee Si Young were reported and confirmed to be in a dating relationship last Friday, everyone was looking forward to the press conference where JunJin would announce and make their relationship official. But it seems that the press conference is now no more.
JunJin's manager revealed to the media this afternoon that the press conference was a misinterpretation and was something that hasn't been confirmed at all. Both of them also announced that there are no plans for a press conference at the moment. Lee Si Young also wrote on her Cyworld that the press conference talk is not true and she personally hasn't heard about it at all.
It's also reported the the production team of MBC's Sunday Sunday Night are now liasing with the management agencies of JunJin and Lee Si Young to get them back on We Got Married where they fell in love. Both management agencies have confirmed that they are in talks but nothing has been finalized yet. Isn't it ironic that they are now trying to get JunJin and Lee Si Young back after booting them out in the first place? But with JunJin and Lee Si Young now a real couple, it does fit the concept of We Got Married Season 2 and they would bring more star power to the show, and more variety since there's only 1 couple right now. I for one will be tuning straight back in.
But on the other hand, JunJin is entering the army within this year while Lee Si Young has lots of acting assignments on her schedule. So it might be not a possibility at all.
Both management agencies have acknowledged the relationship between JunJin and Lee Si Young and expressed that they just aren't ready to announce their relationship to the world as yet. Another insider revealed that both JunJin and Lee Si Young treasure this relationship a lot and hope that their fans will give them their blessings.

Junjin’s mother has expressed her good impression of Lee Shi Young in an interview with the crew of KBS2 entertainment news program ‘Entertainment Relay (Yeonyega Chunggye)’, broadcast on 20th June.
“I met her for a short while, and I like her honest and unpretentious ways.”
Singer Beige, whose music video for her song ‘Very’ starred both Junjin and Lee Shi Young, also commented, “During the filming of the music video, they were joking and playing around with each other and they really gave people the feeling that they were really a couple.”
Junjin and Lee Shi Young’s 3-month-old relationship was officially made known on 19th June. Having first met on MBC variety show ‘We Got Married’ in January as a make-believe couple, they have eventually developed the on-screen relationship into a real-life one.

Looks like all of the members of Infinity Challenge are off the market!
Following the marriages of Park Myung Soo and Yoo Jae Suk last year and the relationship revelations of Jung Joon Ha, Jung Hyung Don, and Noh Hong Chul in the first half of 2009, Jun Jin was thought to be the only single member of Infinity Challenge. However, he revealed on the episode to be broadcast on June 20 that he is also dating someone – who happens to be his former We Got Married partner, Lee Si Young.
The news comes as a surprise to many who watched as Jun Jin and Lee Si Young met and clashed on the reality program. However, a source close to Jun Jin confirmed that the two went from an imaginary relationship to a real one three months ago. Lee starred in Jun Jin’s music video for “Hey Ya!”. The two then appeared as lovers in the MV for Beige’s recent title track, “Awfully“, which was seen as a “Hey Ya!”, Part II.
There have been other hints leading up to this revelation. While hosting a fan meeting in Taiwan last week, Jun Jin told the crowd, “I’ve been active as an entertainer for over 10 years. It’d be nice if fans would now be broadminded about accepting my dating relationships. I’ll let you know some good news soon.” He also recently posted, “I completely love [you]!!…….” on his minihompy.
Jun Jin (28 turning 29) debuted as a singer-rapper in Korea’s longest-running boy band in 1998. He went on to pursue acting as well as a solo singing career. He is a popular guest on many variety programs and replaced Haha on Infinity Challenge in June 2008. Lee Si Young (27), on the other hand, is a relatively late newcomer to the entertainment industry. She gained popularity through her role on Boys Over Flowers and appeared on We Got Married for several months. Her first film, Ogamdo, will hit theatres in July.
The couple are planning to hold a press conference next week (likely June 23) to confirm their relationship. Netizens are buzzing whether or not the two will join the newly formatted We Got Married. However, this will likely be impossible since Jun Jin is expected to join the military in the latter half of 2009.
