The love story between IU and Lee Jong Suk has captivated fans worldwide, but their journey from Inkigayo co-hosts to Korea’s power couple wasn’t always smooth sailing. From initial tensions over Peter Pan costumes to heartfelt award speeches, their 10-year evolution from colleagues to lovers holds more surprises than most realize.
Few remember that Jong Suk once admitted IU “annoyed” him during their hosting days, or that both shared identical views on skipping dating to go straight to marriage. The clues were hiding in plain sight—from his concert appearances to her surprise performance at his brother’s wedding that raised eyebrows months before their relationship went public.
As details continue to emerge about their private Japan getaway and the meaningful support they’ve given each other through career challenges, one thing becomes clear—this relationship was years in the making. Despite occasional breakup rumors, their bond has only strengthened since that New Year’s Day revelation.
This is the complete timeline of Korea’s most beloved couple and how they found their way to each other despite the spotlight and pressures of fame.

Sweet couple, Congrats!!!!!!!
They both set standards too high. I love their relationship over the years it shows how he always had a crush on her while she was oblivious to that but later due to his constant presence and support in her life…she probably fell for him as well.
You can’t trust Korean men
