Hong Jin Young on Her Dating Life for "Gentleman": "I Get Asked Out a Lot"

Singer Hong Jin Young recently did a photo shoot and interview with men’s lifestyle magazine Gentleman.

In the interview, she reminisced on the period when she was nameless as a singer and said, “Because I’ve spent close to 10 years as a nameless singer, I like it now that people recognize me. While there is some inconvenience, that much I can handle.”

Hong Jin Young also talked about her hit song “Love Battery.” She said that when she first saw the title and lyrics of the song, “it was so childish I cried.” She said she couldn’t relate to the lyrics, and felt really dull when recording the song. “It was only after recording was over, “she said, “that I realized it was a great song.”

The trot singer was then asked about MBC’s “We Got Married Season 4,” where she said, “I was surprised because there’s really no script. Viewers will be able to see a new side of me and Nam Goong Min.”

When asked about her dating life, Hong Jin Young said, “I get asked out a lot, but I don’t have the time to invest into relationships, so I have said no to everyone. If I can’t be a good girlfriend, I think it’s better not to start the relationship at all,” revealing her caring and devoted dating style.
