Just like art imitates life, in case of these Korean celeb couples, we would love to see the same happen on-screen as well. The real heartfelt goodness of their relationships could work wonders for their respective characters being in love with each other on the fictional plane too, further blessing us with heart-fluttering moments we won’t be able to recover from anytime soon.
The beloved couple got married in 2022 and are now even parents to a baby boy. They’ve merely featured together on-screen as a cameo appearance in the first episode of the rom-com drama series titled The King of Dramas, so it would be a treat to see the two actors channel their real life love story for their reel life romance saga sometime in the future.
Having first met each other on the set of the Korean film Light My Fire, for which Min stepped up as the director and A-reum as a cast member, the two started dating following this real life meet cute. After seven years of dating, they got married in 2022, but they’ve always been publicly open about their feelings for each other. This heartwarming genuineness would translate really well on-screen as well.
Ye-jin and Hyun Bin have already won the world over with their cross border romance series Crash Landing on You in 2019. Their palpable swoon-worthy chemistry compelled viewers to root for their off-screen relationship to blossom as well back in the day. It’s time for the now-married couple to come back to our screens and make us fall for them again.
Reinstating our faith in love time and again, Min-a and Woo-bin have survived through all odds in their 8-year long relationship. A supportive bond like theirs is hard to come by in this day and age, which is why we want this underrated couple to make the headlines again, but this time for working on a romantic project together.
Even though Hye-ri may not have ended up with Jun-yeol in Reply 1988 (an event that consolidated the powers of the second lead syndrome for once and for all), their natural chemistry came a long way in them holding each other’s hands in real life. Nothing would make us happier than seeing them again on our screens, this time, finally making the finish line together.
Be it attending a Bruno Mars concert, or taking a trip to London together, these two are major couple goals and we love seeing them as a unit. It’s quite surprising how despite them having been together since 2012, they’ve never starred as each other’s lovers in a K-drama. We need this to happen ASAP!
Adding yet another popular couple to the list of all those that tied the knot this year, Seung-gi and Da-in’s unwavering love for each other has stood the tests of time. Regardless of what drama has hit them, they’ve hit it back harder. It would be a happy feat to see them answer back all the unsolicted words that earlier stood in their way by taking the lead as romantic partners in a K-drama some day.
Like quite a few other couples on this list, these two also first met each other while filming a drama - Two Weeks - in the year 2013. They got married in 2017 and have ever since defined how relationships can be comforting and one’s safe place. We won’t complain if they were to take on the project of leading a steamy romantic saga in the future, while also giving us a crash course on what a true grounded romance is all about.
