Actor YIDO is finally completing his military duty and will be discharged on schedule. Accordingly, his girlfriend Lim Ji-yeon's 'military girlfriend' life will also officially come to an end.
YIDO will complete his service in the Air Force military band today (13th). He enlisted in the Air Force military band in August 2023 and has faithfully served for over two years. During his enlistment, despite the disappointment of many fans, he actively demonstrated his presence through various works to ensure that the 'military hiatus' was not felt.
During the military hiatus, he showcased four works, including 'Paramo' and the 'Sweet Home' series, and won the Best New Actor award in the film category at the 60th Baeksang Arts Awards for 'Paramo' last year.
As a rising star, he has proven his solid position by maintaining both artistic quality and popularity during his military service.
Now, attention is focusing on YIDO's full return after discharge. Known as an actor that audiences trust due to his excellent acting skills and stable character delivery, fans are eagerly anticipating what projects he will choose to return to the small screen and the big screen.
Additionally, his relationship with girlfriend Lim Ji-yeon is once again drawing attention. The two have supported each other with unwavering affection during YIDO's military service. With his discharge, their dating life is expected to become considerably more free.
Lim Ji-yeon and YIDO met through the Netflix original series 'The Glory' in 2022 and developed feelings for each other, evolving into a romantic relationship. When dating rumors surfaced on April 1 last year, they openly acknowledged them and began their public relationship. Since then, they have openly enjoyed dates and mentioned each other’s names at award ceremonies, continuing their sweet romance.
Particularly, at last year's Baeksang Arts Awards, YIDO won the Best New Actor award in the film category and expressed his gratitude, saying, 'Thank you to my beloved father, mother, sibling, and my dog, Gaeul, as well as Ji-yeon.'
It remains to be seen what new acting endeavors YIDO will show after removing his military uniform, and how he will open the 'second act of life,' blooming in both love and work.
YIDO is expected to resume his acting activities after his discharge. He is currently said to be considering appearing in a new work by the Hong sisters.
