The images show the couple on dates in a shopping mall, in stores and on an overseas street, dressed casually in hats and face masks. The disguises don't hide much warmth: they walk close together, chat as they go and hold hands. Some netizens compared the pair to a scene from a romance drama, and others called the height difference heart-fluttering.

    A long dating period doesn't do anyone any good.

    If a relationship drags on and then ends, the woman is the one who loses out. Kwangsoo, if you don't plan to marry her, you shouldn't keep her tied to you this long.

    His profile says 193 cm. He's really that tall?

    When people date this long, it usually means marriage isn't on their minds.

    People tell him to let her go if he won't marry her, but an actress in her 30s who marries stops getting lead roles. That's just the reality. If I were Lee Sunbin, I'd rather wait. Everyone, please stop telling him to let her go.
