In March this year, singer and DJ Gu Jun-yeop and Chinese actress Seo Hee-won announced their surprise wedding via SNS. And six months later, the couple released their first photo and told the story behind the wedding.
On March 8, Goo Jun-yeop said, “I want to continue the love I have with the woman I loved 20 years ago. We were able to connect,” he said. Gu Jun-yeop fell in love 20 years ago, and the person he reconnected with is none other than Chinese actor Seo Hee-win.
Seo Hee-won appeared as a star in the Taiwanese version of Boys Over Flowers. Goo Jun-yeop and Seo Hee-won had been dating for a year, but it broke up due to their busy schedules. Meanwhile, Seo Hee-Wang married Xiao-fei, a second-generation chaebol and businessman, in 2011, and they have two children. Seo Hee-won is raising two children after a divorce from Wang Xiao-fei last year.
Goo Jun-yeop appeared on ‘You Quiz on the Block’ and explained the stories around him and Seo Hee-on won. Goo Jun-yeop explained, “There were rumors that Seo Hee-won’s mother would allow her daughter, but her mother-in-law did not.
Gu Jun-yeop, said, “I married well.” He and Hee-Won Seo recently had a photo shoot with Vogue Taiwan followed by an interview. According to Vogue, Gu Jun-yeop and Seo Hee-won appeared in the studio holding hands. Seo Hee-won, face without makeup, introduced Goo Jun-yeop to the pictorial staff, saying, “He is my husband.” Vogue staff who spotted the two said they were secretly going back to when they were in love 20 years ago.
Seo Hee-won admitted that he wanted to die because he was in pain when he broke up with Goo Jun-yeop. Seo Hee-won said, “I wanted to stop being famous. I hated this job because I thought I couldn’t date freely because I was famous.”
Seo Hee-won said, “I was surprised when my brother called. I didn’t change my cell phone number. I used this number even when we broke up 20 years ago. During the phone call with Seo Hee-won won, Goo Jun-yeop said, “Did you clean up your feelings in the past? I want to visit you.” Seo Hee-won said, “I should have asked 20 years ago only when we get old.”
At the time when Junyeop Koo proposed to Heewon Seo, he could not meet unless he was married due to the result of COVID-19. After announcing the wedding, Jun-yeop Koo immediately flew to Taiwan and began self-isolation. After self-isolation was lifted, I met Seo Hee-won.
Goo Jun-yeop and Seo Hee-won did not have a fancy wedding, but instead invited family members and acquaintances to hold the wedding ceremony in a simple party format. This is what Seo Hee-won has been dreaming about since childhood. In particular, the two did not exchange rings and had a ring-shaped tattoo on each of their fingers. In relation to this, Seo Hee-won explained, “When they proposed, they said they wanted to engrave a wedding ring on their hand instead of a diamond ring. So they bought a machine and practiced every day.”
In addition to his fingers, Goo Jun-yeop drew attention by tattooing Seo Hee-won’s name, a boat, and an anchor on his body with the longitude and latitude of Taiwan. Goo Jun-yeop expressed his affection, saying, “I want to anchor in Taiwan. The place where Hee-won is my home. The goddess of fortune will definitely be by my side, and this is the most grateful thing in my life that she succeeded her to come back to me.” I hope that the future of the two people who have a love story that is more cinematic than a movie will be full of blessings.
