MONSTA X's Kihyun and Cosmic Girls' Bona Allegedly Dating + Agency Debunks Rumor

MONSTA X's Kihyun and Cosmic Girls' Bona have been in a relationship for the last five years, according to an official statement by the news channel Sports Chosun on April 21.

Kihyun and Bona, as supporters and followers understand, are sunbae-hoobaes under Starship Entertainment. The two artists have been close buddies throughout their trainee days, and they started to see each other about five years ago, according to the news outlet.

The two performers are now expected to be very cautious on their dates, preferring peaceful and private places like Shinsa-dong or driving in the car of Kihyun. Sports Chosun also confirmed that the alleged couple recently spent holidays with some of their closest friends on Jeju Island together.

However, just hours after the news broke out, Starship Entertainment jumped in to deny the rumors between its artists Kihyun and Bona.
