IU and Lee Jong-suk Break Up After 4-Year Relationship: "Decided to Remain Colleagues"

Singer and actor IU and actor Lee Jong-suk have ended their four-year public relationship.

IU's agency, EDAM Entertainment, and Lee Jong-suk's agency, Ace Factory, stated, "It is true that the two have broken up. They have decided to remain good colleagues."

The two first met as co-hosts of the SBS music program Inkigayo in 2012 and began a romantic relationship in 2022. Having been a couple for about four years, they reportedly decided to part ways recently as their busy schedules led to fewer opportunities to meet.

IU and Lee Jong-suk plan to continue their activities in their respective fields. Lee Jong-suk is awaiting the release of the Disney+ original series The Remarried Empress and has also confirmed his appearance in the live-action adaptation of the popular Naver web novel Love According to Seo-eon.

IU has finished filming the MBC drama 21st Century Grand Princess and has begun preparations for a new album. She is also scheduled to hold a concert at the Goyang Stadium main stadium this coming September.
