Sometimes it takes playing a couple in at least two k-dramas for two actors to realize that they are meant for each other.

That's what happened to actress So E Hyun, 30, and actor In Kyo Jin, 34. The two actors have known each other for more than a decade and have twice played a couple. But it did not occur to them that they were meant to be a real-life couple. They acted as a couple in the 2008 SBS daily drama "Aeja's Older Sister Minja" and again in the 2012 JTBC drama "Happy Ending." And still they did not realize they were soulmates.

It may have had something to do with the fact that he was dating someone else. The actor previously dated actress Seo Woo, only breaking up with his "If Tomorrow Comes" co-star in April 2013.

Recently, In Kyo Jin and So E Hyun began to see each other in a new light. The friendship between them turned into love and the actors began dating about a month ago.

TV Report first broke the news that they were a couple. A TV Report article said that the two originally became friends because they were represented by the same agency and they stayed friends because they had a lot of common interests.

In Kyo Jin's agency spoke to the actor and confirmed the rumor.

"He is dating So E Hyun," said a representative of his agency. "They've known each other for over 10 years. They were always friends and they've recently become lovers. It's been about a month. But the news spread so fast that it surprised him. They've just started and he hopes that people will look upon them kindly."

In Kyo Jin had roles in "Good Doctor," "I Need Romance," "Queen Seonduk." He will soon appear in the drama "Tears of Heaven."

So E Hyun currently stars in the action thriller "Three Days" with Park Yoochun and Park Ha Sun. She previously appeared in the paranormal detective story "Who Are You?" with Ok Taecyeon and Kim Jae Wook. She also had a memorable role as the deceptive wife in "Cheomdamdong Alice" with co-stars Moon Geun Young and Park Shi Hoo."

Due to their busy schedules, So E Hyun and In Kyo Jin do not often have a chance to meet but stay in touch via phone calls and text. What do you think of this couple? Let us know?
