Lee Dong-gun’s Fortune-Telling Clip Resurfaces Amid Dating Rumors: Fated for Four or Even Five Divorces?
As actor Lee Dong-gun becomes the center of dating rumors with actress Kang Hae-rim, an old fortune-telling video from a 2024 episode of SBS’s My Little Old Boy has resurfaced, adding an unexpected twist to the conversation surrounding his love life.
In the episode, Lee visited a Buddhist temple alongside comedian Kim Jun-ho to have his fortune read by a shaman. The reading began with emotional insights:
“You are someone who is deeply lonely and cries often in your heart. That sadness is palpable, it’s heartbreaking,” the shaman told him.
They went on to say that Lee had “missed a major turning point about 20 years ago,” leaving him feeling lost ever since. Lee responded with surprising vulnerability:
“I lost everything: good roles, money, people. I started to wonder if this was the end for me.”

But the shaman predicted a change of fate beginning in 2024, hinting at renewed opportunities in life and love. The most striking part of the reading, however, was a caution about future relationships:
“You’ll have marriage luck after turning 50, but only if you marry a woman who runs a business. If you marry a celebrity, you’re destined for four or even five divorces.”
The shaman also predicted Lee would have “a precious son born later in life.”
Lee Dong-gun previously married actress Jo Yoon-hee in 2017, just months after confirming their relationship and her pregnancy. The couple divorced in 2020, after three years of marriage.
Since then, Lee has kept a low profile, until now. On May 28, he was seen on what appeared to be a romantic stroll through Cheongdam-dong with actress Kang Hae-rim, sparking fresh dating rumors.
With neither side offering clarification, netizens have taken the silence as a subtle acknowledgment of a budding romance. Meanwhile, the resurfaced shamanic reading continues to circulate online, fueling curiosity, and speculation, about what lies ahead in Lee Dong-gun’s personal destiny.
