IU ? Jang Kiha
IU (born 05.16.93)'s dating news was a huge shock, not only because she's the "Nation's Little Sister", but also because of her indie rock band vocalist boyfriend, Jang Kiha (born 02.20.82), who's 11 years older than her. The two confirmed they were dating last October.

Song Seung Hun ? Liu Yi Fei
The only international couple on this list! Not only did this couple overcome an age difference, but they're relationship surpassed cultural boundaries! Top Korean actor Song Seung Hun, (born 10.05.76) and popular Chinese actress Liu Yi Fei (born 08.25.87) have an age gap of 11-years, but that didn't stop them from admitting they were dating back in August of 2015. The two have been very open about their relationship since then, and also frequently made public appearances as you can see in their lovely photos above.

Lee Byung Hun ? Lee Min Jung
Top celebrity couple Lee Byung Hun (born 07.12.70) and Lee Min Jung (born 02.16.82),share the same Chinese zodiac sign, which also means they are 12 years apart. The Lee couple went public with their relationship in 2012 and got married in 2013.
5.
Alex ? Hyunyoung
MBC instructed them to tutor, but they just fell in love instead. Back in 2014, Alex (born 09.02.79) met former Rainbow member, Hyunyoung (born 08.11.91) on the show, 'My Tutor Friend'. Despite their big age gap of 12-years, dating rumors circulated because of their great chemistry on-screen, and the rumors eventually turned out to be true in October of 2015.
6.
Yang Hyun Suk ? Lee Eun Joo
A boss who fell in love with his own artist. Papa YG (born 12.02.69) admitted he first had a crush on Swi.T member Lee Eun Joo, who is 12 years younger than him. What's even more surprising is that the two secretly dated for 9 years! Lee Eun Joo is also the sister of Sechskies' member Lee Jae Jin.
7.
T-ara's Jiyeon ? Lee Dong Gun
These two were another very unexpected couple. T-ara's Jiyeon (born 06.07.93) and actor Lee Dong Gun (born 07.26.80) created quite a buzz as lovey dovey photos of them roamed the web. Soon after their photos got leaked, Jiyeon and Lee Dong Gun, who are 13 years apart, admitted to their relationship.

Bae Yong Joon ? Park Soo Jin
Many fans, especially ahjummas, were terrifyingly shocked by Bae Yong Joon (born 08.29.72)'s dating news. The lucky lover of the Hallyu star turned out to be actress Park Soo Jin (born 11.27.85), who's 13 years younger than him.
9.
Sulli ? Choiza
"Aww, is that your dad?" is the most memorable comment I saw on a photo of Sulli (born 03.29.94) and Choiza (born 03.07.80). The netizens' favorite couple have overcome, and are still going strong, against hate, envy, and an age difference of 14 years since they announced their dating news in 2013.
10.
Shin Ha Kyun ? Kim Go Eun
The age gaps get even further apart. Actor Shin Ha Kyun (born 05.30.74) could've had a daughter the same age as Kim Go Eun (born 07.02.91) if he became a teen dad when he was 17-years-old. But who cares, age is just a number and they're such a cute couple!
11.
Mina ? So Real's Ryu Phillip
This couple is the only one on this list where the girl is older than the guy. Mina (born 12.10.72), currently 43-years-old, is the girlfriend of So Real's Ryu Phillip (born 07.11.89). As you can see, her young looks seem to have played a big role in overcoming the 17-year age gap. Despite the huge age difference, they're such a cute pair, and Mina even waited for Phillip when he went off to the military for his mandatory service. Power of love, right?
12.
BONUS: Yoo Toong
Ok, so this guy. Nobody here can beat Yoo Toong (born 06.12.57). Yoo Toong is an actor/TV personality known for his crazy marriages. Back in 2013, Yoo Toong announced his 7th (Yes, 7th!) marriage with a Mongolian woman 33-years his junior. He's 3 years OLDER than his mother-in-law and the couple already had a 3-year old daughter before their marriage. So for those of you wondering where your love might be on this earth, stay positive and hopeful because your other half might still be going through puberty, or in elementary school, or maybe not even born yet. But it's alright. Age is just a number after all and these celebrity couples prove it!
