He has always kept it under wraps.
Despite being one of the most popular K-Drama heartthrobs globally, actor Ji Chang Wook has managed to keep his dating a complete mystery to the public.
But during a recent variety show appearance, his co-star Lim Ji Yeon spilled the beans on the actor’s real-life romance.
On August 12, the two actors appeared on Shin Dong Youp‘s YouTube channel, Zzanbro, to promote their new movie Revolver. Lim Ji Yeon and Ji Chang Wook displayed their chaotic off-screen dynamic while constantly teasing one another during the interview.
The MC, Shin Dong Youp, brought up the topic of dating, complementing Ji Chang Wook for not getting caught dating so far. In response, the actor said he preferred “dating quietly and breaking up quietly.”
But Lim Ji Yeon chimed in with a mischievous smile, saying she knew about it all but didn’t like to ask him about it.
She also indicated that the actor was indeed seeing someone.
I respect him because we’re both actors. I respect his romance… How can women leave him alone when he is this handsome?
— Lim Ji Yeon
Shin Dong Youp then joked that Lim Ji Yeon had embodied her The Glory character, Park Yeon Jin, at that moment. Ji Chang Wook took his “revenge” by abruptly shouting out Lim’s boyfriend Lee Do Hyun’s name.
Meanwhile, Revolver, starring Lim Ji Yeon and Ji Chang Wook, was released on August 7 in theatres in South Korea.
