Lim Ji-yeon and Lee Do-hyun, who first met on the set of "The Glory" and have recently started dating, celebrated their latest awards win at a dinner with their other co-stars of the hit Netflix series.
On April 29, Cha Joo-young uploaded a post on social media where cast members of "The Glory" including Jung Sung-il, Kim Hieora, Park Sung-hoon and others were seen drinking wine together. Lim Ji-yeon and Lee Do-hyun were both wearing bright smiles on their faces, with Lee letting her hair down and going for a decidedly low-key image.

By the end of the night, "The Glory" had taken home three prizes, including the Best Drama Award. In her acceptance speech, Song Hye-kyo quoted one of her famous lines from the drama series, saying "I won, Yeon-jin! I'm so excited right now." When it was time for Lim Ji-yeon to take to the stage and accept her award, she thanked her co-stars including her new beau Lee Do-hyun, saying "I'm so grateful to Hye-kyo, Sung-il, my dear friends and Do-hyun. Playing Yeon-jin was a challenge and it meant facing failure head-on. I'm still afraid of acting believe it or not, and I want to tell myself 'You worked so hard playing Yeon-jin and you're doing a great job' as I stand here in front of my colleagues today."
