The two actors recently starred together in ENA’s romantic comedy Dream To You, playing former first loves who reunite years later. Their chemistry quickly became one of the K-Drama’s talking points, with viewers praising how natural they looked together.
That chemistry became even more noticeable when Hwang In Yeop and Hyeri were spotted together at a baseball game.

He explained the reason behind it is that he considers their chemistry important, especially when filming a romantic comedy.
I think being able to show good chemistry is important in itself, and personally, I think those kinds of things can help viewers become even more immersed when watching the drama.
I’m grateful if people see us that way. But again, I made a good new friend.

He also revealed that neither he nor Hyeri expected the baseball stadium video to receive so much attention. He said he had no idea the moment had been filmed or that it would eventually become a viral topic.
While the dating rumors may have caught both actors off guard, it seems they are taking the attention in good spirits.
