R&B singer Lee Hi and rapper-producer Dok2 have ignited dating buzz after sharing warm, personal messages and photos on social media, coinciding with the launch of their joint independent label and the release of a collaborative single.
On March 28, 2026, the pair appeared together during a livestream promoting “You & Me,” the first track under their newly established label, 808 HI RECORDINGS. Viewers noticed casual physical closeness, including arms around each other, which many interpreted as couple-like behavior. When fans directly asked about their relationship status, the artists did not respond.
Later that day, Lee Hi posted photos of the two on her Instagram, writing in Korean, “My one and only DOK2 and 808HI, happy birthday!” She added in English: “It’s been a long journey and today is finally here. HBD to MY MAN DOK2 808HI.” Dok2 replied to her post with “So much love” and followed up with his own photo — showing him wrapping his arm around Lee Hi’s waist — captioned, “TO MY LADY and HAPPY BORN DAY 2 ME. Are you all listening well? More songs coming soon.”
The affectionate terms “MY MAN” and “TO MY LADY,” combined with the intimate gestures, led fans and netizens to view the posts as a soft confirmation of romance. Reports suggest the two have been dating since around late 2022, making this roughly their fourth year together, though neither has issued a formal statement.
Lee Hi, who gained fame as runner-up on K-pop Star Season 1 in 2011 and is celebrated for her powerful R&B vocals, and Dok2, a veteran hip-hop artist known from Show Me the Money and his 2005 debut, first collaborated musically years ago. Their new label and duet mark a significant professional step.
As of March 29, no official confirmation or denial has come from the artists or their representatives. The timing — tying personal affection to a professional milestone — has drawn both supportive and curious reactions from the music community. The single “You & Me” is now available, with promises of more releases ahead.
