Actor Moon Chae-won is joining the ranks of married women. Announcing the wedding about two months ahead surprised everyone, but her agency clarified that this is not a sudden wedding announcement due to "premarital pregnancy" and corrected the rumors so she can receive full congratulations.
On the 15th, Moon Chae-won's agency Blitzway Entertainment said in an official statement, "Moon Chae-won has met a precious partner and is preparing to get married in June."
According to the agency, Moon Chae-won's fiancé is a non-celebrity, and their wedding will be held privately with family and close relatives invited.
The reason the wedding will be private is to consider both families. The agency said it is difficult to disclose specific details such as the wedding venue and date, and Moon Chae-won asked, "We would appreciate warm blessings for our new start."
According to one media outlet, Moon Chae-won and her fiancé promised marriage after a not-short dating period. The wedding date was recently set, and they have been telling acquaintances little by little. The "bride-to-be" Moon Chae-won is reportedly spending busy days preparing for the wedding with little time left.
Moon Chae-won's wedding was truly a "surprise" announcement, but it could be guessed from things she had said before. When Moon Chae-won appeared on Coupang Play's "SNL Korea Reboot season 7" in May last year, she gave a cryptic answer to the question "Do you have a boyfriend?" saying, "Even if I do, can't I not say so?"
In several interviews she also said her ideal type, "I don't like people who lie. Maybe because I don't use social media, I would prefer someone who doesn't use social media. And I'm more comfortable with an introverted type than an extroverted one."
She had hinted at dating and marriage several times, but announcing the wedding with less than two months to go sparked much speculation. The most prominent was premarital pregnancy, with speculation that Moon Chae-won might have rushed the wedding date because of a premarital pregnancy. The fact she announced the wedding without prior dating rumors added weight to the premarital pregnancy theory, which often follows stars who marry without prior dating reports.
Moon Chae-won's side dismissed the premarital pregnancy rumors. It is not a premarital pregnancy, and she is spending busy days preparing for the wedding. Because the announcement came immediately without dating rumors and was sudden, speculation centered on premarital pregnancy and she almost did not receive full congratulations, but with the quick dismissal of rumors she will spend the remaining time receiving sincere wedding congratulations.
Moon Chae-won, who debuted in 2007 in the SBS drama "Run, Mackerel!", has appeared in dramas such as "Painter of the Wind", "Brilliant Legacy", "Road No. 1", "It's Okay, Daddy's Daughter", "The Princess' Man", "The Innocent Man", "Goodbye Mr. Black", "Gyeryong Fairy Tale", "The Flower of Evil", and "PAYBACK: Money and Power", and in films such as "The Final Weapon: The Archer", "Love, Again", "The Mood of That Day", and "The King's Case". Her most recent work is the film "Hartman," which opened earlier this year.
