Lim started his aviation course in September last year. Two months later, the actor flew a plane all on his own for the first time. Earlier this month, Lee took her first plane ride piloted by Lim.
Lim confirmed his dating status with Lee in May 2024, which came months after speculations of romance between them first arose in the latter part of 2023.
