Brown Eyed Girls' JeA's relationship with YG Entertainment Producer Choi Pil Gang was recently revealed through an online news site. She had kept it a secret because many people would expect them to get married.

JeA tweeted, "So the day came! But why aren't our fans more devastated that I'm taken? They're playing it so cool, worrying about me and encouraging me!"

She continued, "Anyhow, I'm really sorry that I kept it a secret from you all. It involved more than me, so I couldn't readily make it public news. You never know how serious the other person is about the relationship, right? Since he and I are both older, many people might push marriage as an issue into our relationship, and I didn't want to pressure him by publicly exposing our relationship."

She added, "We have not been dating for 3 years like the article said, however. We dated a little when we were young and then went our separate ways. So the relation re-started about a year ago."

She concluded her thoughts by apologizing and asking her fans for forgiveness and continued support, both for her and her boyfriend.

The news was leaked by an executive at Nega Network, JeA's management company, who told the news site that JeA has been dating YG's Choi Pil Gang since 2011 and have been dating for close to 3 years.

YG producer Choi Pil Kang composed Brown Eyed Girls' songs "Rope" and "Who Do You Love?". He met JeA when he was a trainee at Nega Network. He debuted in 2007 as a member of the group iM. His work as a producer and composer dates all the way back to 2004 when he produced Lee Jung Hyun's "Escape". He has worked on various albums of artists such as DJ D.O.C., MC Mong, Brown Eyed Girls, Big Bang, and Jewelry S. His biggest hit song so far is MC Mong's "Invincible".
