Actor Lee Dong Gun is making headlines once again, but this time it’s not for a new K-drama or film project. Instead, he’s sparking buzz due to some intriguing dating rumors. This comes four years after his high-profile divorce from actress Jo Yoon Hee, which captured significant media attention.
Recently, Lee was spotted enjoying a stroll with a woman in the upscale Cheongdam area of Gangnam, Seoul. Eyewitnesses noted that the duo seemed at ease, walking closely and engaging in lively conversation. In fact, Lee was seen with his arm around the woman’s waist, fueling speculation about a possible romantic relationship.
The woman in question is described as slim and elegant, and those who witnessed the couple remarked that they appeared as if they had stepped right out of a romantic film, completely absorbed in each other’s company despite the bustling public surroundings.
In response to the escalating rumors, Lee Dong Gun’s agency, WPLUS, issued a cautious statement. They refrained from providing any confirmation or denial about the nature of his relationship.

Lee’s relationship status has garnered attention especially after his marriage to Jo Yoon Hee in 2017, followed by their divorce in 2020. The couple welcomed a daughter in the same year they tied the knot, and while Lee has maintained a relatively low profile since their separation, he has shared that he sees his daughter weekly.
On a more personal note, Lee has also embraced a new venture—recently opening a Mediterranean-style café in the picturesque Aewol area of Jeju. The café has quickly become a popular destination, showcasing Lee’s entrepreneurial spirit and marking a fresh chapter in his life.
With these recent sightings and the potential for romance on the horizon, fans are eagerly watching to see what the future holds for the beloved actor.
