As we wait for further official photos from the wedding to ‘crash-land’ our feeds and bless our eyes, here’s a look at the timeline of the couple’s relationship, as it bloomed from reel-life to real-life.
2011:
The two have been associated with each other even back in 2011, when Ye-jin had made a special appearance in Hyun Bin’s popular Korean drama, Secret Garden. However, it is reported that the two never met on sets.
2018:
While the two have been spotted sitting next to each other at the Bucheon International Fantastic Film Festival (PiFan) in 2014, it was only in 2017 that they were confirmed to officially work together. Hyun Bin and Ye-jin starred in the film, The Negotiation, which released in 2018.
Ye Jin was quoted by Soompi as saying, “My first impression of Hyun Bin was that he had really great skin and hair, and I thought he must be an actor that actresses are really into.”
