On Monday, May 24, K-pop and K-drama sites were full of news about a relationship between actor and singer Lee Seung-gi and actress Lee Da-in. This caught many fans off guard as they had never been linked before and seemed to have nothing in common, but the couple quickly acknowledged their relationship in a statement.
Trawling through social media archives, we went as far back as 2013 to see what might have brought the two celebs together. Here are a few things that caught our eye.
They are golf lovers
Seung-gi is widely known to be a golf lover; Soompi even reported that he has been confirmed for an upcoming golf variety show on SBS. In one episode of SBS’ Master in the House, he was also seen impressing South Korean golfer Park Se-ri with his swing.
Da-in also posted about playing golf with family on her Instagram a few times. According to Sports KyungHyang, both found each other attractive after realising they share golf in common.
