“2024 Paris Olympics fencing gold medalist Osang Wook (27) has quickly extinguished the dating rumors with half-Japanese model Haruka Todoya after mentioning his ideal type in detail.

When asked about his ideal type that day, Osang Wook gave a specific answer, saying, ‘I like tall, handsome people. I don’t like pretty. It should be cool. It can be similar to a ‘girl crush.’ I prefer cool over feminine.’
Osang Wook had already revealed the existence of a girlfriend himself on November 21 of last year on the YouTube channel ‘Not Junho, But Junho.’ He mentioned to senior Kim Jun-ho asking about marriage, ‘I want to get married in my early thirties. I originally wanted to do it later but (Kim) Junho hyung went first, followed by Go Bong-kil, and Kim Jung-hwan hyung, so it changed. Whenever the match ends, in my case, I used to say ‘Let’s have a drink comfortably,’ but suddenly the happiness, (hyungs’ happiness) seemed different. At that moment, I suddenly thought, ‘Oh, what if I get married?’ It seems like it will give a huge sense of stability.’

This statement led to suspicions among netizens that Haruka Todoya is Osang Wook’s new girlfriend. The fact that the two follow each other’s SNS accounts, exchange ‘likes’ and comments, and traces of ‘couple items’ and ‘love grams’ were found in various places supported this suspicion.
