Born in 1991, Na Hye-mi made her debut in the 2001 movie “Adress Unknown” in the fourth grade of elementary school. In the sixth grade, she appeared in a scene on SBS’s program “Unanswered Questions” together with Shin Se-kyung in the scenes showing their trainee lives.
The actress gained attention after playing the role of Na Hye-mi in MBC’s sitcom “Unstoppable High Kick” and received compliments for her Western-style beauty. Her visual during “Hick Kick” days stood out so much that many people thought she was a mix-race actress. Even after getting older, her facial features were still very clear.
Na Hye-mi was embroiled in rumors of a romantic relationship with Shinhwa’s Eric in 2014. As rumors broke out, Eric’s acquaintance said to the media, “People around Na Hye-mi and Eric already knew their relationship. The two have been dating for a long time”.
However, their agencies denied the romance. In particular, Shinhwa Company stated, “After checking directly with both of them, we confirmed that they are not in a relationship. The two are close friends in the entertainment industry”.
Three years later, Na Hye-mi and Eric faced dating rumors again in 2017. Due to intensive media reports, they officially acknowledged their relationship, stating, “We developed into lovers from being senior and junior actors”
Two months later, the two ended up getting married. On April 17th, 2017, Eric’s agency announced, “Eric and actress Na Hye-mi are getting married on July 1st”.
After his wedding, Eric appeared in MBC’s 2020 drama “The Spies Who Loved Me” and has returned to the broadcasting industry since then. He was only spotted attending the wedding of Shinhwa’s Andy in July 2022. Na Hye-mi has also been inactive since her appearance in KBS’s “No Matter What”. The actress gave birth to their son in 2023.
Recently, photos showing the whereabouts of Eric spread in online communities. Many people were surprised to see Eric’s appearance with a puffy face and beard without makeup. Knowing that Eric has been writing comments on Na Hye-mi’s SNS account, netizens believe that he is enjoying his happy marriage life and focusing on raising their child.
