Kim Nam Gil Visits the School 2013 Set to Celebrate Drama Win for Jang Nara Sparking Rumors of Dating

When it rains, it pours? When one K-ent celeb couple gets outed, another one follows right behind? I don’t know what’s in the water in Korea right now but just a scant day after breaking news of Rain and Kim Tae Hee‘s relationship (which has since been confirmed by her agency after I posted about it), now there are rumors that Kim Nam Gil and Jang Nara are dating. Here’s how that one went down – Jang Nara won a drama acting award from KBS for School 2013 and a production member from that show posted a picture of him and Kim Nam Gil (see below) saying that he was visiting the set bringing snacks for everyone to celebrate Jang Nara’s win. The unsaid part was that there must be something going on between them since otherwise why would Kim Nam Gil feel the need to visit the set of School to celebrate for Jang Nara.

K-news outlets are always on the take of the powerful agencies so for Kim Tae Hee and Rain to get photographed together screamed staged to me. I’m merely saying that Rain and Kim Tae Hee had to be ready to go public for them to be so brazenly photographed, because there are tons of rumored couples out there that never get on the news because their agencies keep the news from leaking out. Which means Rain and Kim Tae Hee must be serious to go public. As for Kim Nam Gil and Jang Nara, this rumor is different since there are no pictures of them together nor are did either of them post anything even remotely suspicious. The post about Kim Nam Gil celebrating Jang Nara’s win for School 2013 was courtesy of a drama production member, and that Me2Day post has since been deleted. If this is true then I’m happy for them as well even if this potential coupling feels like it came out of far left field. It almost makes me want to have a computer randomly generate K-ent couples and see if any of those far-fetched pairings ever become reality one day.

  • I love them individually, never thought they were acquainted / close, but I shall love them together as well. Love them both.

  • But koala would rain hurt his image like this???? Not because he is dating kth but because Now People are hating on him for using the leaves the army gave Him to work but he use it to date..... know He is even being investigated by army and might have to serve again

    • yes that would be a tragedy if he has to reserve his mandatory just like what happened to PSY before coz he had to serve military service for 4 years.

    • Whut? 4 yrs?...ok, i'm kinda laughing here cuz this was the guy that kept announcing he had plans to enlist and then pushing it back, eventually enlisting at the last moment..and now if he has to serve 4yrs cuz of some silly dating dilliness that would be like a terrible joke on the poor guy not to mention bad for his career

      • yes it has been happened to PSY the oppa gangnam style before. he was rumored taking too many day off when serving the military and missused his day of. and the result he did his mandatory again coz of pressure from the public. so PSY spent almost 4 years total in the military service. I hope the same thing wont be happened to Rain coz it would be a big lost...

  • Well maybe its a good start for K industry to open up celebrities/idols relationship in public, so fans will get used to them. They still have their own lives to live with, beside there are just being honest to the people and to themselves.....

  • I wonder if that extra got burned for outing this pic..lol..lots of accidental celeb couple tweets these days *cough* IU*cough*

    • That extra is a regular character on the show albeit a tiny one. The pic had some wondered whether KNG would cameo in the drama. Guess not. ^^

  • Am I getting too old for surprises? Because there are some of the surprising pairing coming up.
    That is because NONE of those we ship in dramas ever happens. Well except for the QIHM, Life is beautiful and Creating Destiny pair. That's not many from so many dramas.

  • Kim nam Gil was in school 1 the orginal, that why he treated after school 2013 won awards at the KBS event, or at lest that how I read it. But really korean press have been trying to marry Jang Nara off for 11 years now, all she has to do to be linked is be 100 meteres near a male celebraty!
    Though if this was some sort of a start on Kim nam Gil part to romance Jang Nara, well he hardly the first to show an interest, but either way what the harm they both the same age to be friends or whatever else.

  • I see a a game in here somewhere: most unlikely/likely celebrity pairings. I am afraid though that I am still too new to dramas to be really good at this. I don't mean actors we merely ship because they are in dramas together, but people we could actually see dating just because of what they seem to be like (from twitter or NGs or reality shows, etc.).

    It would be far more fun and less mean than the netizen hype we sometimes get when people do start dating. To me, once a pair starts dating for real than they would not be part of the "game." Relationships are difficult as it is; they should not be part of someone else's sport even if the people are famous.
