Move over Lee Min Ho and Suzy, I love you two lovebirds together but time to make room for the latest power couple to hit K-town. Tabloid spymaster extraordinaire Dispatch just blew up the mid-week hump by dropping bombshell entertainment dating news on a slow Wednesday morning – the newspaper is claiming that Pinocchio costars and popular young actors Lee Jong Seok and Park Shin Hye are dating! Yes, even the allegation of such merits an exclamation mark as they are both my beloved darlings so hearing they may be together is like someone ringing my doorbell with roses and a free cake.
Dispatch reveals that its reporters have been tailing Park Shin Hye and Lee Jong Seok in Korea and overseas for the last three months before publishing this dating bombshell reveal with certainty. The two cuties reportedly grew close filming Pinocchio (which is so duh, anyone with eyes who watched that drama saw it), but it wasn’t just friendly camaraderie but included budding romance. The two have since spent plenty of time in the months since Pinocchio wrapped, when both are in Korea as well as aligning their overseas schedule for dates in foreign locales, most notably London when they did the InStyle photo shoot as well as later in Hawaii when both were there at the same time.
Lee Jong Seok is notoriously friendly (flirty) with all his costars, men and women alike actually, so it’s really hard to gauge whether he’s potentially more interested than simply as friendly colleagues. Park Shin Hye, on the other hand, usually strikes me as acting when onscreen with her male leads and mostly keeping a cool distance behind the scenes. She’s friendly and fun but always with a distinct arms length transaction. Even worse is she’s usually a deer in headlights when asked to sell romance onscreen with her male leads, most of the time I see the fear lurking in her eyes when a lip is about to descend.
With that said, Lee Jong Seok really was the first time I’ve seen Park Shin Hye completely and utterly comfortable and into it with her male lead in romantic moments onscreen. Either her romance acting improved or he’s the first male lead she’s ever been really interested in. Now we know. Congrats to the happy couple and honestly I want these two to work out so bad now that I know they are dating. Ugh, please don’t break each other’s hearts! Agencies from both sides are currently “checking with their star” so hopefully word will come soon if Dispatch got the biggest scoop of the summer or the two costars will keep selling the “just friends” shtick.
Update: Both sides agencies have responded and claim the two are just good friends.
This drama was apparently in talks with C-actor Ding Yu Xi before his just aired…
This year 2024 has been a slow year for K-actress Suzy in terms of her…
There are weird casting choices and this one is weird from both the leads itself…
Well this is an interesting pairing, setting aside the age difference at least I can…
I swear I just wrote about Song Joong Ki having his first baby and then…
At the end of the day, the core of any good drama remains the Story,…

Soompi stated that both actors denied the rumor :/ BUT THEY WOULD BE SO CUTE :( Oh well. I just want to see them happy.
How can the author congratulate before anyone confirms the reports...at least you can you use "if"...anyway...the news is already denied by two sides. I never got the feeling that they were interested in real life even if I loved their onscreen romance and chemistry.
Lmfao... In your face!
I knew there was something when her onscreen kiss with him was more action packed than any of her other ones.
PSH already denied.
She can do better than dating this gross faced man tbh.
harsh... but ia lol
Seriously! why must you insult him? Why is the insult necessary? If you don't like him, say she can do better.. That's it..
she can do better....
How old are you? really insulting a person like that? Grow the F up
I agree with you. I don't find him cute or good looking whatsoever. He looks kind of odd. Just my opinion like everyone is giving their 2 cents here.
I thought I was the only one who has that opinion.
While I agree that LJS is so not the kind of guy I'd ever ever get attracted to, your comment is kinda rude. Everyone has different tastes so IF Park Shin Hye likes him, then so be it.
pretty harsh.. i found him not attractive either. but using another word la.. he's not bad actually.. preference.. sigh.
Well he can better also...
LOL just admit already! If LMH & Suzy can admit why don't you two?
Or have they broken up already after 4 months of dating hmm.
Orrrr... They are actually just friends out on a date like two normal people who get along would.
normal friends just meet at the restaurant without changing their cars 3 times before picking each other up and doesn't drive together at night for 3 long hours...

agree with liz, it's obviously suspicious.. she used to hang out with her buddies such as hongki and beast rapper, and they even had the pics of them hugging each other, so why should they change cars many times if they were really friends.. friends didnt do that :P
but however, i ship her with Yoo Seung Ho haha.. this LJS isnt attractive in my eyes,, sorry fans.. no offense.. but preference, right?
@liz it's not that he change the car three times.. he use different cars every time he pick her up
They should admit cos it's clearly , if not DP will stalk them until they admit. Look GD and KiKi.
BUt I love Darling COuple so much, and i have feeling that when i see BTS ,especially fancam in Thialand
They denied it but this is totally working to further bury the Lee Jung Hee case.
I would totally love them together in real life! And if Dispatch released it, I am more inclined to believe that it is true. Or may be, they fall in that close friend but not couple category?
I think Dispatch is the korean government version of the CIA lol. Zipping around the globe trailing celebrities isnt cheap without some kind of outside funding especially with so many celebs to trail.
I bet they have tons of files of juicy stuff in their vault just waiting for the head honcho to use if theres something shaking in the government.
Hehe sorry too much conspiracy theories ^^
Well ofc they're going to deny it but dispatch is despicably too good with this stuff. I wonder how much Dispatch gets paid by South Korean politicians to drop these bombshells at the most opportune times
Well, in the past two years since Rain-KTH has admitted dating, the trend is to just come out in the public when caught. The fact that they denied it makes me believe they are just close friends.
iirc, SM denied Sulli's dating rumor even with photos and video. So, PSH and LJS arent the first ones to deny the news after Rain and KTH
Risky denying Dispatch. They better really not be dating or Dispatch will come back with more.
