Jung Gyu Woon took a break from filming "God's Gift - 14 Days" last weekend to marry his non-celebrity girlfriend of three years. The star-studded ceremony was held at the Raum, a venue in the Gangnam neighborhood of Seoul. The venue is known for its Renaissance style architecture.
The actor met his one-year-older bride two years ago but it did not take him long to fall for her.
"Very early on, I knew that if I was going to get married, she would be the one," he said at the press conference where he announced his engagement.
At first the actor and model-turned web designer were just friends. Things progressed gradually.
"We became a couple after being friends for a while," he said. "Hopefully we can remain friends and lovers and live a happy life together."
Four hundred guests attended the wedding. Actor Lee Deok Hwa, who co-starred with Jung Gyu Woon in "History of a Salaryman," officiated at the ceremony. Other celebrity attendees included actresses Lee Chung Ah, Kim So Yeon, actor Kim Sung Kyun and comedian Jo Seo Ho. Also attending were Sung Yuri, Min Hyo Rim, Ha Jung Woo and Jung Ryeo Won.
Jung Gyu Woon first appeared in the 2004 drama "Five Stars." He played a crazy executive in "La Dole Vita" and a calm boyfriend in "Women of the Sun." In 2009, he appeared in two melodramas, "Again My Love" and "Loving You A Thousand Times."
He landed his first leading role as a judo athlete in the 2010 drama "Dr. Champ, played a police officer in "Sign" and a man in love in "Romance Town." He is best known for playing bad guy Choi Hang Woo in the drama "History of a Salaryman." He also recently played Jang Hoon Nam in the weekend drama "Wonderful Mama."
In "Gods Gift - 14 Days," he portrays Hyun Woo Jin, the police detective that used to date Lee Bo Young's character and the detective whose decision kicked Jo Seung Woo's character out of the police force. His character is a man with a secret.
The couple plans to take a European honeymoon when he finishes filming "God's Gift - 14 Days." They have no immediate plans to have a family but he has said in the past that he wants to have a big one. Having grown up with only his brother, the actor wants at least two sons and a daughter.
