Lee Jin-uk's agency HB Entertainment also said, "Lee Jin-uk confirmed that he had broken up with Choi Ji-woo". Choi Ji-woo and Lee Jin-uk became a couple while they appeared together in the MBC drama "Air City" in 2007. When Choi Ji-woo participated in the press conference held in Japan for the drama "Star's Lover" on March, 2009, she indirectly admitted the relationship with Lee Jin-uk by saying, "If there comes good news that requires your congratulatory message, I will directly tell you right away". Their relationship faced obstacles when Lee Jin-uk joined the army in May of the same year, so they reportedly ended up finishing their relationship. Lee Jin-uk completed his military obligation and was discharged from the army last month.
