Lee Min Ho - Suzy Bae Relationship Update: Will the South Korean Celebrity Couple Call It Quits?


The relationship between South Korean actor Lee Min Ho and Miss A singer Suzy Bae might take an unexpected turn due to their busy schedules.

After the dating news about the popular South Korean celebrity couple broke out in March, their fans are eager to get more updates on their relationship. Recently many of their followers were excited to know that the couple was spotted at Incheon International Airport, but the curiosity did not last for long as the two reached the airport at different timings.

Min Ho and Suzy are currently busy with their individual projects. "The Heirs" star is rushing up with his committed projects, including the upcoming thriller movie "Bounty Hunters", before starting his military service.

On the other hand, the Miss A singer is preparing to share screen space with Ryu Seung Yong in the upcoming movie "Dorihwaga".

So speculations are ripe that the celebrity couple is currently concentrating on their professional lives and may call off their relationship. The main cause for the recent buzz is apparently the alleged break up between BIGBANG member G-Dragon and model-cum-actress Kiko Mizuhara.

Although the K-pop star and his rumoured girlfriend are yet to respond to the speculations, their busy schedule reportedly drove them apart. "They've officially ended their relationship, and have decided to remain as friends," a source close to them told Dispatch (via Soompi).

Earlier in an interview with a Hong Kong magazine, Min Ho stated that he would prefer to communicate often with his other half to maintain a friendly relationship.

Meanwhile, Suzy also opined the same about her partner when she said, "I want to get married quickly, with someone who could go on trips and talk with me like a friend."

However, the 28-year-old revealed that it is a bit inconvenient to keep in touch with his lady love as he is always surrounded by his staff and fans.

So, fans of the South Korean celebrity couple will have to wait a little longer for any official updates about them.
