Actor Baek Jin-hee announced a surprise marriage in January 2027 to a non-celebrity man, and she directly clarified the identity of the man who appeared in a past Canada vlog video.
The production team of Baek Jin-hee's YouTube channel "Jiny is Back" said in a comment on the video released on the 8th about the man who recently drew attention in the Canada travel vlog. The production team said, "The Korean man who was briefly shown in the previous Canada vlog is only an acquaintance of Jin-hee, not her husband," correcting the public misunderstanding while also congratulating Baek Jin-hee on her marriage.
Earlier, when Baek Jin-hee announced she will marry a working man residing in Canada next year, the Canada life videos he released on YouTube in July drew renewed attention. At the time, Baek Jin-hee presented two vlogs that captured relaxed daily life, including a tour of a Toronto market, a visit to a library, and cheering at the CONCACAF World Cup viewing event.
In particular, when the scene in the second video showing her visiting one of Toronto's three major steak restaurants with two men introduced as acquaintances was reexamined, some speculated, "Isn't this a video with the fiancé before the marriage announcement?" However, the production team directly clarified that the man is an acquaintance, not the fiancé, putting an end to those speculations for now.
Baek Jin-hee's agency, Management AM9, told OSEN on the 7th, "It is correct that Baek Jin-hee will marry on Jan. 23, 2027," and said, "The fiancé is a working man residing in Canada." The fiancé's name is reported to be 'Henry.'
It was reported that Baek Jin-hee met her fiancé while in Canada, and after marriage she plans to split her newlywed life and acting activities between Canada and Seoul.
Baek Jin-hee said on her channel that the two have been in a long-distance relationship between Korea and Canada. Baek Jin-hee said, "I flew 14 hours to meet him, and he did the same," adding, "Long distance wasn't easy. There were times when we wanted to be together and see each other but couldn't, and physical time and distance stood in the way." She also said, "The fiancé Henry is an ordinary office worker," and added, "He is not a businessman or financier, nor is he someone with great wealth."
