Well, this pairing was unlikely!

Local news media Dispatch is reporting that singers 아이유 and Jang Ki Ha (of the band Jang Ki Ha and the Faces) have been dating since March this year. They have been making the time to see each other despite their busy schedules; for example, 아이유 would immediately go see Jang Ki Ha after returning from her trip to Shanghai on August 30 before going to practice for her 팬 meeting. The same goes for September 7, when 아이유 would go straight to Mapo after returning from Hong Kong. Their usual dating location was at 집 at each other’s houses (Jang Ki Ha’s located in the Mapo District and 아이유 in the Yongsan Distctrict, Seoul).

When both are not busy, according to Dispatch, Jang Ki Ha would be the one to go see IU, driving to Yongsan in his Hyundai i30. Their 날짜 outfits were nothing special: casual and dark, but they were often adorning masks because they are wary of the public.

아이유 is 22 years old and Jang Ki Ha is 33. Despite the 11-year age difference, they have a lot to talk about with each other, especially about music. According to Dispatch, an acquaintance of both told them that 아이유 and Jang Ki Ha connected through 음악 and their relationship naturally developed into a romantic one.
