Beloved Actor’s First Dating News In 26 Years Since Debut Meets Bitter End

A Korean actor was caught up in his first dating rumor in 26 years since his debut, but while the rumor turned out to be true, the relationship had already met a bitter end.

On the morning of October 8th, Edaily exclusively reported that Yoo Seung Ho and actress Lim Se Joo had been in a relationship for six years. It is said that the two first met while working on the tvN drama Memorist, which aired in March 2020, and later developed into a romantic relationship.

In particular, sightings of them walking Yoo Seung Ho’s dog together and enjoying dates in Paju, Gyeonggi Province, added weight to the dating rumors.

This dating rumor drew special attention because it was the first public dating rumor since Yoo Seung Ho debuted as a child actor in 2000. Having grown up under public scrutiny since childhood, Yoo Seung Ho had kept his private life closely guarded, so news of a long-term relationship lasting six years was even more surprising.

However, about two hours after the dating rumor was reported, the situation took a turn. Follow-up reports revealed that the two had already broken up. Citing a representative from Lim Se Joo’s agency, Moving Pictures Company, it was reported that while the two had dated for six years, they had recently split.

An agency representative stated, “After speaking with actress Lim Se Joo, it is true that she dated actor Yoo Seung Ho for six years, but they have recently broken up.” Although it is said they parted ways about a month ago, the exact timing of the breakup has not been disclosed.

Yoo Seung Ho’s side also confirmed the breakup. His agency, 333 Entertainment, said, “The two actors were in a relationship but are now separated and remain good colleagues.”

In the end, Yoo Seung Ho’s first dating rumor ended with news of their breakup about two hours later. Although the relationship of six years was revealed to the public for the first time, the two had already been walking their separate paths.

Since Yoo Seung Ho has carried out his career for 26 years without any notable public dating rumors, the fact that both the first dating rumor and confirmation of their breakup were reported on the same day drew significant attention.
