It was probably the biggest surprise since the secret wedding of actress Lee Young-ae this summer. Actor Jang Dong-gun and actress Ko So-young have confirmed that they’re dating. There were rumors that linked the two celebrities in the past, but they have steadfastly maintained that they were just good friends, nothing more. The news has prompted such a flood of questions and congratulations that Jang’s personal homepage went out of service late Thursday evening.
According to Jang’s management agency, the two started off as good friends after starring in “Love Wind, Love Song” in 1998. The relationship grew serious two years ago when Ko comforted Jang through some rough times.
Called the handsomest actor in Korea, Jang has mentioned that he’s become lonelier as he grew older and is looking to settle down before he turns 40. That wish may come true as some people speculate that the two lovebirds will walk down the aisle early next year. It’s also rumored that Ko is already shopping for her wedding dress and buying things for the couple’s new home.
Their agencies have denied the rumor, saying that it’s too premature to say for certain whether they will get married. Nonetheless, their fans have already posted the projected images of their offspring and began calling them the Brangelina of Korea after the top American celebrity couple Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie.
Currently Jang can be seen in a hit movie titled "Good Morning, President" in which he stars as a young widowed president. Ko is not working on any films or dramas right now, but is appearing on a number of TV ads.
