Jinyeob and Kimi met in February 2021 in the midst of the pandemic through a dog playdate initiated by a mutual friend and coworker.

Both driven by love for their pups and their enrichment, they both continued to have dog playdates so that Luna and Rey can continue socializing and playing with one another during lockdown.

As time passed, texts were exchanged, dinners and dates were had, and suddenly they became an item.
