Updated August 18 KST:

YG Entertainment released a statement sharing, “We checked with Nam Joo Hyuk and Lee Sung Kyung, and it is true that the two recently broke up,” and added that the exact reason cannot be revealed as it is their personal matter.

Original Article:

On August 18, it was revealed that Lee Sung Kyung and Nam Joo Hyuk have reportedly broken up.

According to industry representatives, they naturally grew apart due to busy schedules and have decided to maintain a supportive senior-junior relationship.

In response, a source from their agency YG Entertainment commented, “We will release a statement after checking.”

The model-turned-actors had confirmed their relationship on April 24. The two had been friends for awhile and starred in tvN’s “Cheese in the Trap” and MBC’s “Weightlifting Fairy Kim Bok Joo” together.

Nam Joo Hyuk is currently appearing in drama “Bride of the Water God,” while Lee Sung Kyung is shooting for upcoming film “Love Sling.”

Oh, I've been watching WLFKBJ over and love them so. I guess they decided to give it a try and found it wasn't quite right. I'm glad it seems like they could still be friends though.

Wait what? I thought the last post we had about them dating said neither actually confirmed that they were together?

I JUST FINISHED WEIGHT LIFTING FAIRY SO THIS IS *HORRIBLE* NEWS OMG. They were so cute together on the show :( I hope it wasn't a bad breakup... :(

Wasn't there a blind item post saying that their relationship was just for show?

[tungatunga.livejournal.com]

But that would indicate that Nam JooHyuk can act?

[benihime99.livejournal.com]

Nooooooooo I loved them together :'(, I was rooting for them and they were the cutest. I can't help being sad about it.

I feel like this is isn't true. They probably think NJH isn't as marketable when he has a girlfriend so they just released to the press that they're not dating anymore. (I have no basis at all lmao but yeah.)

[modestgoddess79.livejournal.com]

this was my first thought as well, I feel like a lot of couple's pretend to break up to get the fans off their back

[cryim.livejournal.com]

I always wonder about this a bit with a lot of couples, but are they not afraid of dispatch catching them again and exposing their lies? I was like this with Kai/Krystal breaking up news so conveniently before EXO's comeback lol

But.... but... D:
They were supposed to go up against SongSong couple in this year's Omona award for best IRL couple... D:
LOVE IS DEAD.

(also, I'm so keeping my icon anyway.........)
