Actress Lim Ji Yeon, 33, has confirmed her romantic relationship with Lee Do Hyun, 28, who is five years her junior. The couple, who met on the Netflix series 'The Glory,' have turned their on-screen chemistry into a real-life romance.

On April 1, Lim Ji Yeon's agency, Artist Company, announced, "The two are cautiously getting to know each other while having positive feelings, as close senior and junior colleagues. We would appreciate it if you could look at them with warm eyes." Lee Do Hyun's agency, Yuehua Entertainment, also confirmed the relationship, stating that "the two are carefully getting to know each other after developing a liking for one another."

Earlier that day, Dispatch had revealed photos of Lim Ji Yeon and Lee Do Hyun's secret dates. According to the report, the couple's love blossomed during the workshops for 'The Glory.' They kept their relationship low-key, expressing their affection through couple items. Lee Do Hyun reportedly didn't miss any team dinners for 'The Glory,' despite simultaneously filming the drama 'Bad Mother' and the movie 'Grave' (directed by Jang Jae-hyun).

Lim Ji Yeon and Lee Do Hyun co-starred in the Netflix series 'The Glory,' which tells the story of a woman seeking meticulously planned revenge for the violence she suffered during her childhood and the people who get caught in the whirlwind. In the series, Lee Do Hyun portrayed Joo Ye Jung, a plastic surgeon and an accomplice to Moon Dong Eun (played by Song Hye Kyo). Lim Ji Yeon played the role of Park Yeon Jin, a weathercaster who caused unforgettable pain to Moon Dong Eun.

In fact, there were very few scenes in 'The Glory' where Lim Ji Yeon and Lee Do Hyun appeared together. Their rare on-screen chemistry was evident in only a handful of behind-the-scenes stills. Many fans felt regretful that their chemistry was limited to a single photo. Of course, for some die-hard fans of 'The Glory,' the couple's real-life romance could potentially disrupt their immersion in the drama. Nevertheless, the chemistry between Lim Ji Yeon and Lee Do Hyun couldn't be hidden, both on-screen and off.

Lim Ji Yeon took on a villainous role in 'The Glory,' transforming her image as an actress. Though she felt fear and pressure taking on the character Park Yeon Jin, her ambition prevailed. Lim Ji Yeon, who debuted in 2011 with 'Disaster Film,' had faced numerous controversies regarding her acting skills. She once said, "I've always been desperate during my acting career of over 10 years."

Through 'The Glory,' Lim Ji Yeon left a lasting impression of her desperation on many viewers, earning her praise as "Bravo, Park Yeon Jin." Lim Ji Yeon is set to bloom once again with 'The Glory,' while also preparing to become a military wife. Lee Do Hyun, who was born in 1994, is expected to enlist in the military this year. Unintentionally, Lim Ji Yeon will become a military wife. Additionally, Lim Ji Yeon recently re-signed with her current agency, Artist Company, celebrating another milestone. The public is eagerly anticipating what the future holds for 'military wife-to-be' Lim Ji Yeon.
