Actor Hyun Bin (real name Kim Tae-pyeong) and Son Ye-jin (real name Son Eon-jin) recently announced the news of their marriage, drawing keen attention from the public.
Earlier on February 21st, Women Chosun reported that Son Ye-jin’s mother purchased a jewelry box at a department store in Daegu as the bride’s wedding present.
In particular, a close acquaintance of Son Ye-jin’s mother told Women Chosun, “Since Ye-jin and her son-in-law are both top stars, there are many things to pay attention to”, adding, “She is carefully preparing everything with a mother’s heart”.
While the specific date and location of the two’s wedding were reported sequentially, the broadcast of tvN’s “Yoo Quiz on the Block” on February 16th in which Son Ye-jin appeared as a guest was re-examined.
At that time, Son Ye-jin emphasized her friendship with Yoo Jae-seok, which was formed through many entertainment programs, by mentioning the bungee jump game she played with Yoo Jae-seok on SBS’s “Running Man” in the past, and when Yoo Jae-seok planned a hidden camera with Son Ye-jin and Jung Il-woo to deceive the members of MBC’s “Infinite Challenge”.
Son Ye-jin then said, “I have to promote for my new drama. When asked which show I wanted to appear on, I said I would join ‘Yoo Quiz on the Block’”, adding, “Since Jae-seok oppa is here, so I wanted to come on the show with all my will”, proving her unique closeness with Yoo Jae-seok.
In addition, Yoo Jae-seok is often seen hosting the weddings of his close colleagues. Lim Yo-hwan and Kim Ga-yeon, who married in 2016, made headlines when they appeared on KBS 2TV’s “Happy Together 3” and confessed that they had matched their wedding date with Yoo Jae-seok’s schedule.
At that time, Lim Yo-hwan said, “There’s no other reason. Host Yoo Jae-seok said he had time that day”, showing his affection for “God Yoo”.
Netizens raised expectations, saying, “Will Yoo Jae-seok actually be the host (of Son Ye-jin and Hyun Bin’s wedding)?”
Meanwhile, Son Ye-jin and Hyun Bin personally announced their marriage through handwritten letters on February 10th.
Hyun Bin said through the Instagram account of his agency VAST Entertainment, “I’m going to make an important decision of getting married and carefully step into the second phase of my life. I promised her that I would always make her smile”.
Son Ye-jin also posted on her Instagram, “I have someone to spend the rest of my life with”, adding, “Thanks to everything around us that made our relationship a fate. Everyone, please give blessings to the future that we will create together”.
Son Ye-jin worked with Hyun Bin in movie “The Negotiation” and tvN’s drama “Crash Landing on You”.
