Ji Ye-eun Opens Up About Dating Choreographer Bata: "Once I Start, I'm All In"

Ji Ye-eun confirmed her relationship with choreographer Bata in April. On July 8, she appeared on the YouTube channel 오키키 ㅇㅋㅋ to walk through how it all happened.

The episode, 남녀 스킨십 속도 차이ㅣ아무튼떠들러왔는데, had Ji Ye-eun and Gabi hosting married couple Kwon Ddoddo and Kim Ju-chan. The conversation shifted to how Ji Ye-eun moves in relationships. She was direct about it.

The pre-dating phase? One to two months. "I want to talk more and be careful," she said. "Early on I'm too shy to even express myself. I'm a bit of a cold girl." She used a plane metaphor: "It takes a while to take off, but once it does, it goes straight."

Once she commits, everything changes. "Once I start, I'm all in," she said.

When asked how much of herself she gives, she said she starts at 80 out of 100 and builds from there. She holds back a little because she's afraid of getting hurt. (Fair enough.)

Ji Ye-eun and Bata were born in 1994 and were church friends before they started dating.
