MANILA, Philippines — Girls’ Generation (SNSD) member Sooyoung and actor Jung Kyung-ho have parted ways after 14 years of dating, their agencies confirmed on Tuesday. 

Breakup rumors previously began circulating in various news outlets after social media users noticed that the stars begun unfollowing each other on social media. 

Sooyoung’s agency, People Entertainment, told Star News Korea: "It is true that the two have broken up. They have decided to remain good colleagues."
