Hip-hop artist Choiza, actress Sulli break up

SEOUL, March 6 (Yonhap) -- Choiza of South Korean hip-hop group Dynamic Duo and Sulli, an idol singer-turned-actress, recently ended their relationship of over two and a half years, their agencies confirmed Monday.

"The two broke up. They decided to remain friends," S.M. Entertainment, which represents Sulli, said.

Choiza's record label Amoeba Culture said they grew apart due to their "busy schedules and different ways of life."

Rumors of their relationship first surfaced after images of them being together appeared online in September 2013. They admitted to seeing each other in August of the following year after a photo of the two, which was from Choiza's lost wallet, was uploaded on the Internet.

The couple made headlines for their gaping 15-year age difference and especially Sulli's unabashed postings of their dating moments on social media, with a recent post showing their trip with Gaeko, Choiza's music partner, and his wife.
