Regarding surprise marriage rumors about actor Ha Jung-woo (real name Kim Seong-hoon), his agency drew a line by only acknowledging his relationship with actress Cha Jeong-won. Actor Kim Yong-gun, who suddenly found himself portrayed as a father celebrating prematurely, also expressed bewilderment at the distorted reports.
On the 4th, Kim Yong-gun told OSEN in a phone call regarding Ha Jung-woo's marriage, "The article's content is not true. When I first received contact about the article I said, 'This is something I don't know about. If it's something to congratulate, I'm grateful,' but the article came out as if I had acknowledged it," he said, expressing his bewilderment.
That afternoon, news suddenly spread that Ha Jung-woo would marry his non-celebrity girlfriend in July, drawing attention. In particular, the first reporting outlet quoted Ha Jung-woo's father, actor Kim Yong-gun, conveying thanks for the congratulations, which made it even more of a topic.
However, Kim Yong-gun told OSEN, "(Ha Jung-woo's marriage) is not happening yet. It's not happening yet," firmly stating.
Furthermore, Ha Jung-woo's dating partner was revealed to be actress Cha Jeong-won. Cha Jeong-won's agency, Saram Entertainment, also told OSEN, "It is true that actress Cha Jeong-won is dating actor Ha Jung-woo. However, the marriage is not true," issuing an official position.
On the same day, Ha Jung-woo's agency Walkhouse Company also told OSEN, "It is true that actor Ha Jung-woo is currently dating someone. However, nothing has been confirmed yet regarding marriage. Whether it will be in the summer is also undecided," they said in an official statement.
Walkhouse Company is an entertainment agency headed by Kim Young-hoon, the second son of Kim Yong-gun and Ha Jung-woo's biological younger brother. In response, a Walkhouse Company official told OSEN, "Given actor Ha Jung-woo's age, it is true that he is dating with marriage in mind. However, nothing has been decided yet regarding actual marriage proceedings," they said firmly.
The agency added cautiously, "There is absolutely nothing decided about summer or doing it in July. The actor's habit of replying to marriage questions with, 'Marriage? I should this year, I should in summer,' seems to have been distorted."
Meanwhile, Ha Jung-woo is set to return to the small screen with tvN's new Saturday-Sunday drama "How to become a building owner in Korea." This will be Ha Jung-woo's first TV drama appearance in about 20 years since the 2007 broadcast of the drama "Hit," drawing anticipation.
Cha Jeong-won debuted as an actress in the 2012 film "Scary Story." She has appeared in the film "Plunge" released last year, and in dramas such as "Extraordinary! Moon Chef," "Absolute Boyfriend," "Special Labor Inspector Jo Jang-pung," and "Lawless Lawyer." She was born in 1989 and is 11 years younger than Ha Jung-woo, who was born in 1978.
