T-ara Singer Soyeon Park Says She And Boyfriend Oh Jong Hyuk 'Haven't Really Talked Marriage'

Soyeon Park of the K-pop girl group T-ara claims she and boyfriend, singer Oh Jong Hyuk, haven't really discussed getting married, but that doesn't mean she's shy about discussing the matter with reporters.

At a press conference on Monday in a café in Seoul's Gangnam District, Soyeon opened up about her and Oh's past present and potential future.

"We dated for a while, but because I was waiting for him while he was in the army, we couldn't talk about marriage a lot," the singer said, according to the publication eNEWS.

"We both have very important things in each other's lives, so we haven't really talked marriage in detail."

Soyeon, who has reportedly been dating Oh since 2010, also had some feisty words for any of Oh's fans that have questioned what he was doing with her.

"I hear that my boyfriend is too good for me," she quipped before adding, "I'm glad that there are many people who like my boyfriend."

The T-ara singer said Oh serving out his mandatory service in the South Korean army caused her to seriously consider the depth of their relationship.

"Because [Oh] went to the army a little after we started dating, I had to think very carefully about it," Soyeon said.

"But because I really liked him, waiting was the easiest. I think we grew a lot of faith and trust in each other during that time."

When asked why she was being so candid in a South Korean entertainment industry where many top stars protect the details of their social like matters of national intelligence, the singer's answer was simple.

"I didn't want to lie or hide our relationship to the people who like us," Soyeon said. "We believe it's right to reveal it after dating for a certain period of time."

The two stars revealed the news last month, through their respective record label reps.

 "They're a couple that's dated a long time," said a rep from Oh's label, DSP Media. "Please encourage them since they are [getting along] beautifully."

T-ara released their fifth EP, "Again" on Thursday.
