The owner of the restaurant the couple visited called them a "good-looking pair" and translated to English, they wrote:

"The Glory actors Lim Ji-yeon and Lee Do-hyun visited our restaurant. They are good-looking pair that's really cool and beautiful. Lee Do-hyun's voice was super cool and Lim Ji-yeon's eyes were really pretty. Today, we sold out our dumplings, so they could not eat them. They only got to try our other good, but if they come again, we will cook them up deliciously."

The restaurant owner's post soon went viral online, and fans flooded the internet with their reactions to it.
