AllKPop reported that in one of the episodes of KBS 2TV’s Happy Together 4, Kim confessed that the pair started to have romantic feelings for each other while shooting the drama, but did not officially become a couple until filming wrapped up.
Kim also fondly shared that the two of them used to have secret 15-hour dates, which she described as “more physically demanding than filming the drama”.
“I hunched to not get caught, and I thought I didn’t get caught, but it turns out people just pretended like they didn’t see us,” said Kim, according to AllKpop.
The couple married in a private ceremony in June 2017.
