While exposing the relationships of celebrities when they try to be discreet is deemed to be a wrong thing, many still anticipate Dispatch's - a South Korean news outlet - annual celebrity couple exposé.
Let's look back at the past and list down the K-drama couples who have been exposed on New Year's Day!
Kim Tae Hee and Rain
In 2013, Kim Tae Hee and Rain's relationship was revealed to the public and without a doubt, it's the most controversial thing that graced the entertainment scene yet.
The two met for the first time through a commercial project and their friendship blossomed into something more romantic.
In 2017, the two tied the knot, debunking the myth that all Dispatch-revealed couples don't end up together.
Up until this writing, they are still South Korea's golden couple.
YoonA and Lee Seung Gi
Being one of the most famous stars in South Korea at the time, Girls' Generation YoonA and Lee Seung Gi captured the attention of the public in 2014 after their romantic tryst was exposed to the public.
Despite being received well by the public, the two called it off after nine months of dating, leaving everyone devastated.
Jung So Min and Lee Joon
In 2018, Jung So Min and Lee Joon is one of the two couples that were revealed to the public, the other one being singers G-Dragon and Lee Joo Yeon.
Among other couples, the public loved Jung So Min and Lee Joon the most because of their lovely and affectionate gestures to one another.
However, the two broke it off in 2021 after realizing that they're better off friends.
Hyun Bin and Son Ye Jin
Like Kim Tae Hee and Rain, the 2021 couple Hyun Bin and Son Ye Jin also received much love from fans all over the world.
They are also one of the few couples that had a happy ending. In 2019, rumors about their relationship spiraled after their intense chemistry as an onscreen couple in the drama "Crash Landing on You."
In 2021, the two confirmed their relationship and have shown their love for one another since then. In early 2022, the two exchanged their vows, which made every fan around the world swoon.
Apart from that, Hyun Bin and Son Ye Jin also welcomed their first born this year-what a way to end 2022!
IU and Lee Jong Suk
Lee Jong Suk and Lee Ji Eun (most popularly known as the songstress IU) shocked their fans and the whole Korean entertainment industry when Dispatch announced on December 31, 2022 that the two are in a relationship.
The two, both who are top stars in Korea, left their fans swooning and giggling as they are the living testament of "besties to lovers."
The two had been friends for a long time before finally taking the plunge into romance between them!
