If you would like your next date to be a kdrama star, you may want to study acting. Being on the set of a kdrama does dramatically increase your chances of meeting, dating and possibly marrying a kdrama star.
Several kdrama celebrities met on the set, although not all of them lived happily ever after with their co-stars.
Actor Jang Dong Gun, who appeared in "A Gentleman's Dignity," first met his wife, actress Ko So Young on the set of the 1999 drama "Love Wind Love Song." The couple dated for 11 years before marrying in 2010. Ko Young starred in a dozen dramas and films, including the film "The Fox With Nine Tails" with Jung Woo Sung.
Former S.E.S. singer Eugene met her future husband Ki Tae Young on the set of "Creating Destiny in 2009. Eugene, who plays Min Chae Won on "One Hundred Year's Inheritance," and appeared in "Ohlala Couple" and "King of Baking," married Ki Tae Young in 2011. He will appear in the upcoming drama "Scandal."
Han Ga In, who starred in "The Moon Embracing The Sun," met her husband Yeon Jung Hoon on the set of the 2003 drama "Yellow Handkerchief." He appeared in "East of Eden" and "Vampire Prosecutor." The couple married in 2005.
Sometimes it's enough to just be on the set to meet your kdrama mate. That's what happened when anchorwoman Lee Ha Jung went to the set of "Queen of Reversals" to interview actor Jung Jun Ho. The actor who appeared in "Iris" and "The Last Scandal of My Life" was impressed by Lee's interviewing style and they decided to date.
But usually, actors date other actors. Yoo In Na, who currently stars in "You're the Best Lee Soon Shin," met her current boyfriend Ji Hyun Woo when he played her time-traveling boyfriend on last year's "Queen Inhyun's Man." The two are still dating although he is serving in the military. Ji Hyun Woo previously appeared in "A Thousand Kisses."
Lee Chung Ah, who starred in "Flower Boy Ramen Shop" and had a cameo in 'Dating Agency Cyrano" is dating her Flower Boy co-star Lee Ki Woo, who is currently filming "Bean Sprout."
But meeting on set is unfortunately no guarantee that co-stars will stay together.
Lee Min Ho and Park Min Young, who met on the set of "City Hunter," only dated for a few months before breaking up.
Lee Sang Yoon, who appeared in "My Daughter Seo Young" and will appear in "Goddess of Fire," began dating actress Nam Sang Mi after they appeared on the set of the 2010 drama "Life is Beautiful," but they broke up last year. Nam Sang Mi will appear in the 2013 comedy "Goddess of Marriage."
Song Hye Kyo, star of "That Winter The Wind Blows," met and began dating Hyun Bin, the star of "Secret Garden" and "My Lovely Kim Sam Soon" on the set of "Worlds Within" in 2009, but although the lovers made a stunningly photogenic couple, they broke up in 2011.
Being a beautiful kdrama star or dating one is no guarantee that you will not get your heart broken.
