Actor Won Bin marries actress Lee Na-young
(Yonhap) — Star Korean actor Won Bin married actress Lee Na-young on Saturday.
The wedding was held in Won Bin’s hometown of Jeongseon, Gangwon Province, with only select family members and close friends invited, Eden9 Entertainment Co. Ltd. said in a news release.
The two have been in a relationship for years which was first officially confirmed by the agency in 2013.
“It was a small family-focused wedding,” an agency official said.
Since earning fame in the TV drama which spearheaded the so-called “Hallyu,” or the Korean Wave, the 38-year-old actor has starred in many local blockbusters including “Taegukgi” and “Mother,” directed by Bong Joon-ho. “Mother” had competed in the 2009 Cannes Film Festival.
The 35-year-old Lee made her debut as a TV commercial model and later earned a major place in the entertainment field.
The two have not appeared on the TV or the silver screen since the early 2010s except for some TV commercials.
