Feb 27 became the day of the viral K-drama couples switcheroo. Hallyu stars IU and Lee Jong Suk’s real-life romance has been going strong for nearly the past three years despite persistent rumours of their breakup. Both household favourites are currently also committed to their professional goals, with Lee set to appear in tvN’s upcoming legal drama and IU stepping up for a brand-new high jewellery photoshoot collaboration.
Ironically, they’ve joined forces with those top celebrities for these projects, who also partnered up professionally as an onscreen couple for the hit K-drama, True Beauty – Moon Ga Young and Cha Eunwoo.

On Thursday, local fans spotted Lee Jong Suk and Moon Ga Young shooting for their forthcoming legal drama “Seocho-dong” (working title) in the streets of Hong Kong. These fan-shared snaps of the new onscreen K-drama pair hit the internet on the same day IU’s latest Chaumet campaign shoot with Cha Eunwoo went viral.

Fans have been going gaga over the K-pop soloists-actors duo’s “lethal face cards” ever since the Bee De Chaumet campaign photos went live. However, not everyone turned out to be a fan of the unexpected pairing, with some even calling out their “awkward” chemistry around each other. Flaunting Chaumet’s ‘Bee My Love’ collection’s jewellery line featuring a distinct honeycomb pattern, the latest promotion campaign featured IU and Eunwoo in full denim getups.

Meanwhile, on the other side of the word, Lee Jong Suk and Moon Ga Young accepted their new roles as Ahn Joo Hyun and Kang Hee Ji, two associated lawyers with varying levels of experience in the field. Both characters work at different law firms in the same building in Seocho-dong.
Despite the professional divide, Lee and Moon’s realistic characters buddy up with others to form the five musketeers’ gathering of associate lawyers who navigate through life cheerfully even in the face of challenges posed by cold lawsuits in their way. The legal drama, brimming with affectionate moments, is scheduled to air on tvN in the first half of 2025.
