According to Korean media, recently, actor Lee Jung Jae and his girlfriend Lim Se Ryung attracted attention when they appeared at the 2024 Film and Art Gala at the Los Angeles Museum of Art (or LACMA).
This is the fifth time they have appeared at the event together. Previously, the couple attended LACMA in 2018, 2019, 2021 and 2023. This year, Lee Jung Jae has a more special return as Gucci is the sponsor of the event. Lee Jung Jae currently takes on the role of Gucci global ambassador.
The couple coordinated black outfits, Lee Jung Jae wore a tuxedo with a bow tie, while Lim Se Ryung wore a black feather dress with a clutch.
After 10 years of publicly dating, the two did not hesitate to appear together at entertainment events. Lee Jung Jae and Lim Se Ryung also took pictures with other guests such as actor Lee Soo Hyuk and LACMA co-president Eva Chow.
Lim Se Ryung is currently the Vice President of Daesang Group. She divorced Samsung Group Chairman Lee Jae Yong in 2009, after a decade-long marriage.
Lee Jung Jae (52 years old) has been rumored to be dating Lim Se Ryung (47 years old) since 2010, when paparazzi captured the moment they traveled together to Manila, Philippines. At that time, Lee Jung Jae said that the two were just friends.
In 2015, Dispatch released a series of photos of the two hanging out, and the actor admitted to his relationship with Lim Se Ryung. After going public, the two occasionally attended events together.
