I know two real life couples who have this dynamic like Raejun and Woori. One was during school. Where I come from, most of the schools have classes from Nursery to 12th grade. I studied in a school up to 10th grade. When I was in 8th grade, I saw a friend of my cousin who was in 12th grade. She was top of the class and she started dating a teacher who came as for a temporary post. Later, he got a permanent post as a high school teacher (10-12) and she finished her UG, PG, PhD and later became an Asst Prof in a college. They're happily married now. Another one was when I was in university. A senior of mine who was doing PhD started dating a woman who just got selected as an Asst Prof. He was working under her for some time when his supervisor was out of town. And they got married later, with two children now. Both these two couples have, I think more than 5-yr gap. It was not that scandalous. The first one was tho not that much bc here we encourage love, understanding and matching personalities more than fleeting conflicts. We have a clan system. People give more importance on this- whether the couple belong to the same clan or not, even if they have different surnames, even if their personalities match. Many people break up only on the fact that they later found out they belong to the same clan, which is BS I think . And so this story is kinda very interesting and worth analysing to me. And I think we should give a rethinking on certain aspects of life. I think that's the lesson of this story.
