Fans of Lim Ji Yeon and Lee Do Hyun, two well-known K-drama stars, are once again speculating about their marriage after Lim followed an Instagram account that was planning a wedding.
The two actors met for the first time while filming the popular Netflix show "The Glory." They made their relationship public in April 2023. Even though Lee Do Hyun has to serve in the military, sources say that the couple's relationship is still going strong.
Some fans quickly thought that the Instagram activity might mean that the couple was planning to get married. Someone on Instiz said, "She's 36 now... It's the right age for marriage, but I don't think they're at the stage of actually getting married yet... Could it have been an accidental follow??"
Some people didn't agree with that point of view. Another fan said, I don't think it was a mistake. She's at an age where she could be interested in marriage." Through this conversation, it is seen that social media can cause people to make conclusions prior to having any type of press release.
Another group of observers believes that the follow was a result of the Instagram algorithm. "Unless it's a wedding planner, wouldn't that just be the algorithm showing something and she accidentally hit follow? That's happened to me before," said one user, stressing that the move might not mean the person really wants to get married.
Fans also thought about the couple's past together. One fan wrote, "Come to think of it, they've been together for a long time." Another person said, "They're a couple who met through my favorite drama, The Glory, so if they do get married, I'd be so happy for them." This shows how much people love the couple.
People are even more curious about Lim Ji Yeon because she is 36 years old, which is a normal age for marriage in Korea. Koreaboo said that fans noticed the Instagram follow, but neither actor has said anything in public about whether or not they plan to get married.
The fan divide shows how social media exaggerates what's important about celebrity behavior, which can produce totally false reports. Regardless of whether the Instagram post was real or was an error, fans retain tremendous interest in the Lim Ji Yeon and Lee Do Hyun relationship.
