The relationship between SNSD Yuri and broadcaster Dex has been a popular subject in SNS, causing some netizens to become fans of them as a couple.
On August 7, the first episode of “The Zone: Survival Mission Season 3″was released on Disney+, with main cast members Yoo Jae Seok and Kwon Yuri leading the show.
Furthermore, the program also welcomed the addition of mixed martial artist Kim Dong Hyun and former Korean Underwater Demolition Team (UDT) soldier Dex (Kim Jin Young) as new members.
Throughout this season, the four protagonists are tasked with intense and authentic missions, including fending off never-ending AI assaults, navigating the financial challenges of a mortgage, and persevering in difficult circumstances.
After the episode premiered, Yuri and Dex quickly became the talk of Korean web forums and social media platforms such as TikTok and X, thanks to their unexpectedly captivating on-screen chemistry.
A viral video has surfaced of the two individuals seemingly re-enacting a scene from a K-drama. In the video, Dex dramatically throws his body in front of Yuri to shield her from a piece of hard cardboard that was about to fall due to strong winds.

Despite the potential danger, Dex’s instincts kicked in and he quickly embraced the female idol, pressing her against the wall in order to keep her safe. In reaction, the SNSD member, clearly flustered, covered her face with her hat and remarked:
“Oppa, why is he doing this? He’s so cool.”
Dex, who was born in 1995, is currently 29 years old, while Yuri, who was born in 1989, is 34 years old. The fact that they have a six-year age gap has piqued the interest of viewers, particularly when Dex refers to Yuri as “noona.”
The “Gee”singer initially explained her reaction during a production conference held on the 6th, stating the reasons for her reaction regarding this scene.
“I didn’t intend it at all. I was a bit taken aback because it flowed so naturally. I was so grateful that Dex always showed up at those moments to help me and protect me. These guys would run away first, but Dex naturally helped me.”
Dex, a former contestant on the dating reality show “Single’s Inferno,”playfully commented:
“It strangely felt like I was filming ‘Single’s Inferno 2 again.”
As the number of people shipping them as a virtual couple increased, their recent videos also garnered significant attention from fans, particularly due to the noticeable tension between them.
During their appearance as guests on Yoo Jae Seok’s show, which was uploaded on the YouTube channel Ddeun Ddeun, he playfully teased the duo by jokingly claiming that Yuri was only focused on finding dex during their filming of “The Zone.”He even affectionately referred to him as “Dex~ya.”
Their initial encounter also garnered notice for its uncomfortable yet charming quality. Dex recalled:
“When shooting for ‘The Zone,’ I tried to approach her first, but she actually backed out a bit instead. But later on, ‘Dex~ya,’ After spending some time.”
While backing away, Yuri then confessed:
“I still feel a bit awkward with him though.”
The plot that Dex devised, which even had Yuri feeling excited, provided a sense of vicarious thrill to the viewers, as evidenced by the comments left by them, such as:
- “I would actually fall in love.”
- “Where can I find a man like Dex? He’s so d*mn hot.”
- “This is giving K-drama vibes.”
