Actor Lee Dong-gun is once again in the spotlight as he is embroiled in dating rumors with actress Kang Hae-rim, five years after his divorce. While he has remained tight-lipped in official statements, there have been testimonies from acquaintances that he has not hidden his 'romantic' side. Amidst this, the members of 'My Little Old Boy' are gaining attention with a series of happy news.
According to Sporty News on the 1st, Lee Dong-gun casually introduced Kang Hae-rim as his 'girlfriend' to acquaintances, revealing his excitement about the romance by saying, 'Thank you' and 'I am happy' in response to congratulatory messages.
Last year, Lee Dong-gun joined the cast of the SBS variety show 'My Little Old Boy' as a new member, where he stirred controversy by stating that he hadn't thought about dating for a long time and that he felt he shouldn't date until he has a child. Now, indications have surfaced that he has begun 'real love' rather than simply 'situationships,' which has already sparked a heated response among netizens.
It is noteworthy that Lee Dong-gun married fellow actor Jo Yun-hee in 2017 and had a daughter, but they divorced by mutual agreement in 2020. Currently, their daughter is raised by Jo Yun-hee, and Lee Dong-gun continues to play the role of 'dad' by consistently meeting with her.
In the meantime, there is notable news about 'My Little Old Boy' members experiencing 'double happiness.' First, Kim Jong-min got married to a non-celebrity 11 years his junior on April 20, and on May 27, he went on his honeymoon to southern France. At the time of the marriage, he revealed his desire for 'two children' and it has been reported that he plans to enjoy a three-week trip on his honeymoon.
Similarly, Lee Sang-min has also completed the marriage registration with a non-celebrity who is 10 years younger, making them legal partners. Although he skipped the wedding ceremony, he has shown his 'romantic' side through couple stamp certification photos, receiving support from fans. He has expressed his affection by saying, 'My wife feels like a gift from heaven.'
Additionally, another 'My Little Old Boy' member, Kim Jun-ho, is set to marry comedian Kim Ji-min in July. Recently, he shared the excitement of his upcoming marriage while enjoying celebrations with friends.
With half of the four members of 'Dolsing Four Men' joining the ranks of married men and one preparing for marriage, Lee Dong-gun has also become the subject of dating rumors, making 'My Little Old Boy' a true relay of happy news. However, SBS has stated regarding Lee Dong-gun's dating rumors that they learned about it through news reports, and there are no plans to disclose it on air.
'My Little Old Boy,' which captured the real lives of divorcees, is now evolving into a program that conveys 'real love,' and attention is also being drawn to Lee Dong-gun, who could become the fourth protagonist. However, Lee Dong-gun's agency remained tight-lipped about the matter. His agency, W Plus, stated, 'It's difficult to confirm as it's a private matter,' while Kang Hae-rim's agency, Andmark, added, 'We cannot confirm as it pertains to the actress's private life.'
