According to Cha Tae Hyun, he started dating his wife during 2nd year in senior high school. At the time, the actor wasn’t popular, but he confessed to his wife and won over her heart. They dated for 13 years before marriage, and Cha Tae Hyun is now happily living as the father to three children.

“My wife doesn’t like me filming bed scenes, so despite having debuted for 28 years, I have never acted in any bed scene”, the actor fondly said. He is also known for being a good father, and once shared that he started taking up dramas and entertainment shows so that his kids can see his face more often and be popular in school.
