It’s not every day that Korean actors come clean about their dating life as they strongly believe in protecting their privacy from saesangs (a term commonly used for obsessive fans). Therefore, it was sure to cause a Tsunami when Lee Dong Wook and Bae Suzy confirmed their romantic pursuits. Both top stars, Lee Dong Wook and Suzy began dating in 2018 after meeting at a casual gathering. While many were in awe of this good-looking couple foreseeing their happy future together, the duo soon called it quits just two months after confirming that they were dating. In fact, their breakup also triggered a massive scandal in South Korea. So, what exactly happened? Let’s take a look.
Suzy, a former Miss A member, always had a thing for Lee Dong Wook as she once went on to record her liking towards him way before they became a couple. During an appearance on SBS’s Strong Heart, Suzy named Lee Dong Wook as her ideal type, sending fans into a frenzy. So, when the duo was reported to be officially dating, it was believed that the ‘Start-up’ actor made the first move and succeeded in her pursuit.
Lee Dong Wook’s agency released a statement confirming his relationship with Suzy in March 2018, revealing they met at a private party and are getting to know each other with positive feelings, as reported by Soompi. However, in May 2018, it was revealed that the pair had decided to split up owing to a packed schedule that kept them busy, leaving little to no time to pursue romantic interests. “It’s true that Lee Dong-wook and Suzy have broken up. They naturally grew apart as they became busier,” King Kong by Starship shared in a statement.
