Fans of former EXO member Luhan have slammed Korean and Chinese media for speculating about the celeb's relationship with his high school friend Wei Qian Ya.

The news about K-pop star's rumoured relationship with Qian Ya started doing the rounds after Chinese media outlet Sina reported about the latter's Weibo update. The publication stated that the lady posted an old photo of the celeb with her, to say that the two are dating. But Ya reportedly ignored him, though he could not forget her.  

It even claimed that a netizen quoted Luhan's message about his girlfriend on the social networking site, which read: "Wei Qian Ya, I will give up on you. Let's meet in our next life," according to Soompi.

However, LuHan International FanClub from China denied the news by posting a statement on Twitter with the title, "The clarification for Sina's fake news about Luhan". They stated that the entertainment sites like "to make up and spread gossip on high popularity stars".

"Actually, the 'girlfriend' is a staff of Luhan Studio and she has already got married (of course not to Luhan). This news is not true and will hurt the reputation of Luhan. These gossips should be disregarded," read the post.

In the meantime, the admirers of the 25-year-old stated that Sina used a random image of Luhan's former classmate and "claimed it to be the picture of his rumoured girlfriend in order to increase web traffic."
