한류스타 이병헌(43)과 배우 이민정(31)이 오는 8월 백년가약을 맺는다.
이병헌의 소속사 BH엔터테인먼트는 5일 “이병헌과 이민정이 8월 10일 오후 6시 그랜드하얏트호텔에서 결혼식을 올린다”고 밝혔다.
두 사람의 결혼으로 연예계에서는 2010년 장동건-고소영의 뒤를 잇는 또 한 쌍의 톱스타 커플이 탄생하게 됐다.
2006년 지인을 통해 처음 만난 이병헌과 이민정은 한 차례 헤어진 후 작년 초 다시 교제를 시작했다. 작년 8월 공식 홈페이지를 통해 교제 사실을 인정하고 나서 공개 연인으로 데이트를 즐겨왔다.
최근에는 이민정이 친구의 결혼식에 이병헌과 함께 참석해 부케를 받은 사실이 알려지며 결혼 임박설이 불거지기도 했다.
1991년 KBS 14기 공채 탤런트로 데뷔한 이병헌은 드라마 ‘해피투게더’ ‘아름다운 날들’ ‘올인’ ‘아이리스’ 영화 ‘공동경비구역 JSA’ ‘번지점프를 하다’ ‘달콤한 인생’ 등을 통해 한국을 대표하는 배우로 자리매김했다. 작년에는 영화 ‘광해, 왕이 된 남자’가 국내 관객 1천만 명을 돌파하며 톱스타로서 명성을 재확인했다.
해외에서도 ‘해피투게더’와 ‘아름다운 날들’로 배용준과 함께 한류스타로 떠올 랐고, 블록버스터 ‘지 아이 조’ 시리즈로 할리우드에도 성공적으로 진출했다. 현재 브루스 윌리스, 모건 프리먼 등과 호흡을 맞춘 할리우드 영화 ‘레드 2’ 개봉을 앞두고 있다.
Actors Lee Byung-hun, Lee Min-jung to wed in August
By Suh Hye-rim
Actor Lee Byung-hun is to tie the knot with his girlfriend Lee Min-jung, one of Korea’s most sought-after actresses, in August. The two have been together for seven years since 2006, during which time they broke up once but got back together last year.
The wedding will take place at the Grand Hyatt Hotel in Seoul on Aug. 10, the two celebrities’ agencies confirmed in separate statements on Wednesday.
“In love and trust, the two have decided to become lifetime companions to each other. Thanks for all your support and interest. We hope that you‘ll continue to support them and send them love for their new start,” Lee Byung-Hun’s agency BH Entertainment stated.
Meanwhile, Lee Min-jung’s agency MS team Entertainment flatly denied possible pregnancy.
Speculation had mounted over their wedding ever since the two publicly acknowledged their relationship last year. The 31-year-old actress caught the bouquet at her close friend’s wedding on May 25, with her 43-year-old boyfriend also in attendance at the ceremony.
Lee Byung-hun is on a world promotional tour for “G.I. Joe: Retaliation,” in which he stars as Storm Shadow. Another blockbuster, “RED 2,” in which he appears alongside Bruce Willis and Morgan Freeman, will be released in July.
