Actors Bae Nara and Han Jae-ah have become a newly public couple.
On the 30th, Bae Nara's agency YY Entertainment told OSEN, "It is true that Bae Nara and Han Jae-ah are dating. They care for each other and are happily seeing each other," in an official statement. With a calm but clear acknowledgment, it was revealed that a connection that began on stage has grown into love. The two are already known to have been longtime lovers.
The two built their relationship as colleagues while working together in the musical "Grease", the "housewarming concert", and "Rafanich's Garden", among others. Their serious attitude toward the stage and a shared deep love for music and acting naturally drew them to each other, sources say. Those around them have also said they are a model actor couple who support and encourage each other's growth.
Bae Nara debuted in 2013 with the musical "Promise" and has made her presence felt in major works such as "Grease", "Thrill Me", "Wild Grey", and "The Death of a Salesman". Recently she has expanded her range by appearing in dramas such as "Villainous Biography", "Weak Hero Class 2", "Tastefully Yours", "Would You Marry Me?", and "The Manipulated". Last week she appeared as the first contestant in the Year of the Horse special on MBC entertainment program I Live Alone, revealing her daily life. In that broadcast, Bae Nara said, "I have lived alone for 16 years," calmly introducing her solo lifestyle and personal routine, which drew attention.
Han Jae-ah first became known after winning the grand prize at the 2003 MBC creative children's song festival with "Choseongdal", and began full-scale stage activity in 2017 through the musical "Hamlet: Alive". She then built solid experience in works such as "Maybe Happy Ending", "West Side Story", "Paris Bakery", and "Winter Wanderer", and is currently performing in the musical "Kinky Boots".
The two actors who met on stage are continuing their chemistry in real life and writing another chapter of their story.<
