On December 30, American paparazzi media “Backgrid” published photos of actor Lee Jung-jae and Daesang Group vice president Lim Se-ryeong enjoying a swimsuit date on the Caribbean island of Saint Barthélemy.
In the photos, Lee Jung-jae is wearing a white short-sleeved T-shirt and checkered shorts, while Lim Se-ryeong is wearing a white bikini. Lee Jung-jae is seen photographing Lim Se-ryeong, looking like any other couple in love.
The couple, who began their public relationship in 2015, have remained faithful to each other ever since. Two years ago they even posed as a couple at the Emmy Awards ceremony. With an age difference of five years, Lee Jung-jae is 52 and Lim Se-ryeong is 47, the two have maintained a long-term relationship. They are so close that they even had dinner together with Jung Woo-sung, who has his own private life disputes.
Netizens responded to the paparazzi photos by commenting: “Lim Se-ryeong looks like Maggie Cheung,” “I wonder why they won’t get married,” AND “Hollywood isn’t that far away.”
Currently, Lee Jung-jae is in the United States to attend the 82nd Golden Globe Awards. The second season of “Squid Game” was nominated for Best TV Drama Series at the Awards, and Lee Jung-jae left for the United States a few days ago with director Hwang Dong-hyuk. The results of the Golden Globe Awards, scheduled for Jan. 6, will determine whether “Squid Game” season 2 wins an award.
