Lee Dong Gun and Jo Yoon Hee Married and Pregnant

[keytfelt.livejournal.com]

Two months after Lee Dong Gun and Jo Yoon Hee admitted that they were dating, (and 3 months after his breakup with Jiyeon was confirmed) it has now been revealed that they have legally gotten married and are expecting a child!

Lee Dong Gun himself wrote to his fans, “I am writing this because I think all of you should be the first ones to know. Jo Yoon Hee and I, who met through a drama and became lovers, have registered our marriage and legally become husband and wife. While preparing to get married, we were blessed with a child, and we are thankfully and eagerly waiting for the child’s birth. For now, I will be focusing on my drama ‘Seven Day Queen’ (tentative title), and we will hold a private wedding with our family and close acquaintances once I am done with the project. I am unsure about how this news will be received by my fans who have always supported me, but as much as I want to become a better actor and a happier person, it is my wish to receive blessings from all of you. Please look over us warmly. In order to repay the love I’ve received from everyone, I will work hard to become an even better actor and a great husband.”

this whole story LOL what a soap opera
for me, they're only getting married because she got pregnant. if that's the case, I hope they've a happy life. esp jo yoon hee.

can't stop but think that jiyeon dodged a bullet here LOL

It's like everything went downhill for him after breaking up with Han Ji‑hye. I was so sad when they broke up. Sweet 18 remains one of my favourite drama. I re watched it a couple years ago, still holds up imo!

[sayuridoll.livejournal.com]

seems like they got married bc she's pregnant
good luck lol

"While preparing to get married, we were blessed with a child"

riiiiiiiiight ;D

I liked JYH in Nine but this is so left field. talk about a shotgun wedding

[haixiao.livejournal.com]

do famous people in korea not use condoms or something, this is like the fourth shotgun wedding this year

[ultraflyy23.livejournal.com]

Who were the other 3?

[haixiao.livejournal.com]

the only one that immediately comes to mind is soyul and her husband but i'm also exaggerating lmao

[ultraflyy23.livejournal.com]

Oh lol

[sra-interesante.livejournal.com]

Even if they have been dating for years Rain and Kim tae hee wedding was totally out of the blue ....

then we have Gary who suddenly married a non-celebs and now keeps avoiding media

also that girl from crayon pop

i'm just thinking in kpop idols tho
i dont follow enough korean actors to know who's even dating lol

[jinkiestabi.livejournal.com]

To me it seems like marriage is the end all be all, like they just HAVE to be married or you've done nothing in your life.

I can't relate. Marriage is a set-up, lol.

[haixiao.livejournal.com]

same sis i'm not planning on getting married ever..........unless i need health insurance shsdjshdf whoops

[jasmineakaiumi.livejournal.com]

lmao same, I always said I'd only get married if I could get tax/health benefits

[kristinl356.livejournal.com]

i'm laughing cos i legit got married for health insurance

[jinkiestabi.livejournal.com]

Actual royalty in our presence omg. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

[au9042.livejournal.com]

In my country the health sistem it's quite free, so no need to get married at all lmao!

[ebenetwo.livejournal.com]

Everytime a kceleb announces marriage I just look at my watch and countdown till that baby is born less than 9 months after the wedding

Srsly they do know the pull-out method is not a legitimate contraceptive right?

[dorawa.livejournal.com]

No not really. I'm no exaggerating. Their sex ed is total shit from such a conservative culture and my 35 year old husband legitimately thought pulling out would prevent a baby.

[ebenetwo.livejournal.com]

my 35 year old husband legitimately thought pulling out would prevent a baby

ummmmmmm

[dorawa.livejournal.com]

I mean it's the truth??? Lol he learned real quick with me

[jasmineakaiumi.livejournal.com]

I can second this. my classmate in uni told me her and her bf were going to do it for the first time n when I told her to use a condom she said "why? it's my first time, you can't get pregnant" lmao

have had other classmates come to me crying w/pregnancy scares (I guess me being the only foreigner made it easier for them to open up to me...?) bc they never used condoms or other birth control

[meyouthisthat.livejournal.com]

Lol right? It's like they've never heard of condoms.
Also, i think this is one of the many shotgun weddings to have come out from the k-celeb circle. It's either that or weddings/marriages tend to happen real quick lol

[post-dada.livejournal.com]

Soooooo........ How pregnant is she? Why do i think he cheated

[bob-dabuilda.livejournal.com]

Jiyeon dodged a bullet 'cause that could have been her womb that is pregnant.

[littlefox12.livejournal.com]

People break-up and get into new relationships.The timeline of his was a little shady, but I hope they have a happy marriage and family.

[timetobegin.livejournal.com]

Shady timeline indeed, but other than that: dude is 37, she's 35. At that age people are a l o t quicker with marriage and getting a kid. Jiyeon's only in her early twenties so I can see why she would not have been done with this.

[sra-interesante.livejournal.com]

ngl everytime we get one of those wedding announcement coming from a non-idol i feel dissapointed ...

korean actors are wilder than most kpop groups members wich is boring for someone who loves kpop fandom meltdowns like me

please dont tell me we gonna have to wait for another ukiss/suju member to get marry to see that kind of mess again

[kjc48.livejournal.com]

wait for another ukiss/suju member
irl lmao. i'm literally crying. I can't at marriage being ukiss defining talent~

[burningleaf.livejournal.com]

wow i hear warning bells, but i'll try and keep it down. may they have the patience for the bumpy ride called marriage and childbearing both!

[goldenrosalie.livejournal.com]

hmmmmmmmmm well considering the fact that i don't think most people announce pregnancy before first trimester is done... this timeline sounds more than shady. congrats to the couple and congrats to jiyeon! she clearly dodged the bullet here.

[saltyaf.livejournal.com]

i watched the drama they were in together when they got together (or was it before ?).

out of all the couples, i felt like they had zero chemistry. so it's interesting that they're the one that got together.

[senshicalico.livejournal.com]

dang that's a pretty bodice on that dress

[goshipgurl.livejournal.com]

I'll never understand shotgun weddings

[smilla-sini.livejournal.com]

Every time people leave condescending comments about the weddings when the bride is pregnant I feel kinda weird. You do realize that it's not always about "saving the face"? Unplanned pregnancies happen. And in some countries it's just more convenient to make the marriage official when you're having a child. Paperwork, social benefits and stuff like that. I'm not planning to have kids but if I did I would like to marry my partner so that if something happens I won't have to go around and try to prove that we are in fact a family. Or, you know, to get some bonuses from the gov't and your workplace. I'm not talking about this couple in particular, but every time there is post about such case there are lots of people who shows up to make fun of them and make it seem as if it's something shameful. And even if they do it to save their image, why is this a problem? I think it's the society's fault that people have to lie so that others won't judge them.

[kjc48.livejournal.com]

yall know he knocked up his side chick, aint nobody gonna tell me otherwise.

But they are grown and Jiyeon is free, so idc lol

[lysblack.livejournal.com]

Yup, that's how I see it with the timeline.

[post-dada.livejournal.com]

I thought I was going crazy with all these people acting like this was normal......

[musicnkisses.livejournal.com]

Yup! They were most def banging while he was with Jiyeon. I wonder if Dispatch will look into this.

[ashdevilrun23.livejournal.com]

He probably cheated poor jiyeon :(
He can choke

[hitthoselightz.livejournal.com]

lmao at the nb users claiming this whole relationship isnt iffy at all and no one is allowed to question it

jiyeon deserved better anyway

[airyclouds.livejournal.com]

The K-Netz won't look down on the Jo YoonHee and Lee DongGun relationship because they're actors where as JiYeon's an idol. It's a stupid superiority complex they won't stop enforcing.
