On August 16th, Gong Min-jeong posted on her SNS account, saying “I will hold a small wedding with Jang Jae-ho this September, with the attendance of my family members and close friends”.
Regarding her husband-to-be Jang Jae-ho, she continued, “I met him for the first time as a friend before working together in ‘Marry My Husband’. He’s a precious person who has always made me laugh and warm me with his kindness”, adding “He’s a person who makes me believe that we can go forward together for the rest of my life”.
Gong Min-jeong and Jang Jae-ho, who were both born in 1986, played a couple in “Marry My Husband”, Yang Joo-ran and her unemployed husband Lee Jae-hyun. Although Jang Jae-ho acted as a jobless husband who cheats on his wife in the drama, he’s an affectionate lover to Gong Min-jeong in real life.
In addition to Gong Min-jeong and Jang Jae-ho, many stars have developed their relationships from couples in dramas to real-life couples.
One of the representative couples is Son Ye-jin and Hyunbin. The two collaborated in the movie “The Negotiation” and tvN’s drama “Crash Landing on You”. After refuting dating rumors four times, Son Ye-jin and Hyunbin admitted to their romance in January 2021 and got married on March 31st. The two welcomed their first son in November of the same year.
Aside from them, other stars who met in dramas then got married in real life are Ji Sung & Lee Bo-young, Yeon Jung-hoon & Han Ga-in, Ki Tae-young & Eugene, In Kyo-jin & So Yi-hyun, Lee Sang-woo & Kim So-yeon, etc.

At that time, she shared, “Thank you for your congratulations on my wedding day despite some issues in the process. I will live happily with the blessings and support from everyone”.
Actress & Girls’ Day member Park So-jin married actor Lee Dong-ha after working together in the movie “The Night Shift”. The two held their wedding in Seoul in November last year. When announcing the news of their marriage, Park So-jin said, “He (Lee Dong-ha) is the person who filled the empty spaces in my heart with love and provided me, who was busy with my own life, with a place to rest. I respect him and love him, the person who let me know that I’m also precious”.
Uhm Hyun-kyung and Cha Seo-won, who worked together in “The Second Husband” in 2021, also developed into lovers in real life. The two made headlines as they announced the pregnancy news right after revealing their marriage plan. Cha Seo-won enlisted in November 2022 and completed his service in May this year. Uhm Hyun-kyung gave birth to their first son in October last year. The two will reportedly start preparing for their wedding soon.
