IU and Lee Jong Suk are once again facing breakup rumors — and this time, BTS’s V got caught in the middle of it.
On May 20, OSEN reported that the couple is still going strong after three years of dating. A source close to them said, “IU and Lee Jong Suk are doing well together,” shutting down the rumors that keep popping up.
But where did this latest breakup talk come from?
Recently, posts on online communities started claiming that IU and BTS's V were spotted having dinner together. This quickly led to people asking, “Did IU and Lee Jong Suk break up?”
The rumor started after IU was seen visiting “Mosu,” a restaurant owned by Chef Ahn Sung Jae, to celebrate her birthday. Some fans guessed that V was there too, and things got out of hand.
IU posted birthday photos on Instagram, showing a cozy celebration with her friends, including actresses Kang Han Na and Lee Joo Young, both of whom she met while filming Broker. The pictures showed IU’s cake, flowers, and friends—but no Lee Jong Suk, which made people even more curious.
However, it was later revealed that this dinner was just a friendly get-together with people who worked on her Love Wins All music video, where V played the male lead. V reportedly didn’t wear a mask or try to hide, making it clear there was nothing secretive going on.
IU and Lee Jong Suk first went public with their relationship in December 2022. While they like to keep things quiet, sources say the two are still happily together and supporting each other in their own ways.
So no, IU and Lee Jong Suk haven’t broken up—and the V dinner rumor was just that: a rumor.
