However, as reported by SPOTV News, the couple has since called it quits. Additionally, the outlet addressed the recent breakup of Yena and Seol Young Woo, attributing it to their busy schedules.

The dating rumors started, with media outlets and paparazzi often capturing their outings. These encounters mainly took place at Na Eun's residence, in her car, and there were instances of her visiting the National Soccer Team’s dorms. Notably, on November 14 and 15, they were reportedly spotted together at the Korean National Team’s hotel ahead of a crucial game for the 2026 FIFA World Cup qualification – AFC.

In response to the dating reports, Namoo Actors, the agency representing Lee Na Eun, clarified that the two are merely acquaintances and not romantically involved. On the other hand, Lee Kang In's management chose not to comment on the matter.

A few days later, reports surfaced suggesting that another soccer player, Seol Young Woo, is romantically linked with another former April member, Yena. The dating rumors gained traction through various online community platforms, highlighting instances where the two were seen with matching items like hats and phone cases. Notably, netizens pointed to Yang Yena's name allegedly embroidered on the back of Seol Young Woo's soccer cleats as evidence of their relationship.

In response to the circulating news, Yena's agency, STARBASE, informed NewsCulture that they intend to "look into the dating rumors" with Yena. Similarly, Seol Young Woo's agency, Ulsan HD, stated that they are not aware of any details concerning their players' private lives.
