Since the beginning of 2022, many Korean celebrities have announced their engagement and marriage. In particular, the celebrity wedding that took the most spotlight this year belongs to A-list star couple Hyun Bin and Son Ye Jin. Now that Hyun Bin has become a married man, which top actors still remain in the over 40 bachelor club of Korea’s entertainment industry?
Gong Yoo
Having an amazingly attractive and manly appearance with a stunning physique and a top-tier acting career, Gong Yoo is still single, or he is so good at keeping his love affair away from the media. Not only has Gong Yoo never been married, but he has also never publicly dated anyone ever since he debuted. The 1979-born actor is one of the most private and secretive celebrities regarding his personal life.
During his 20 years working in the industry, Gong Yoo acted alongside plenty of gorgeous actresses, many of whom he was embroiled in dating rumors with, such as Im Soo Jung, Yoon Eun Hye, Jung Yoo Mi and Kim Go Eun.
Gong Yoo’s most well-known rumored romantic relationship is with Jung Yoo Mi. The two worked together twice. They were suspected of dating in secret for years and even preparing for their marriage. However, their agencies have denied these rumors.
Lee Dong Wook
Like his close friend Gong Yoo, Lee Dong Wook is also currently single. Born in 1981, Lee Dong Wook is famous for both his acting talent and handsome, youthful appearance. He doesn’t look like he has entered his 40s at all.
Throughout the years, Lee Dong Wook has been caught up in dating rumors and shipped by fans with various actresses such as Lee Da Hee, Kim Hyun Joo, Yoo In Na, etc. But the only confirmed relationship he had was with the “nation’s first love” Suzy. However, the visual couple called it quits after just 4 months. Since his breakup with Suzy, Lee Dong Wook has not been reported to be dating anyone.
Jo In Sung
Jo In Sung is one of the A-list actors over 40 whose dating life fans are curious about the most because he has kept it behind the closed door for years. The 1981-born actor is hot, talented, famous, and of course, never been married.
He publicly dated the scandalous actress Kim Min Hee in 2013. But they split up after a year, followed by Kim Min Hee being involved in an affair with married director Hong Sang Soo. After parting ways with Kim Min Hee, Jo In Sung has been totally low-key about his private life. He was rumored to be dating former co-stars Song Hye Kyo and Gong Hyo Jin in the past, but the rumors didn’t seem to be true.
Recently, in tvN’s “Unexpected Business 2”, when asked about marriage, Jo In Sung said: “I’m not yet married. I couldn’t get married. It’s not that I didn’t get married.”
Jung Woo Sung
Born in 1973, until now, Jung Woo Sung still has no intention of getting married. Although he has turned 50 years old, Jung Woo Sung is still very attractive thanks to his handsome appearance. That has helped Jung Woo Sung become “the most desired handsome man in Korea”.
During his entire career, Jung Woo Sung only publicly dated Penthouse actress – Lee Ji Ah. In 2011, he and Lee Ji Ah went public after collaborating in the blockbuster Iris 2.
However, his love story quickly ended after Lee Ji Ah’s secret marriage to her ex-husband Seo Taiji was revealed. Unable to withstand criticism from the media and the public, Jung Woo Sung quickly broke up with Lee Ji Ah. Until now, Jung Woo Sung still has no intention of dating anyone or getting married.
Kang Dong Won
Born in 1981, Kang Dong Won has always been loved by fans thanks to his perfect visual.
Kang Dong Won is well-known for his flawless beauty, but he is rarely addressed in the media due to his love story. The actor has only had 2 dating rumors with Song Hye Kyo and Han Hyo Joo.
Kang Dong Won and Song Hye Kyo have worked together twice before. The public also supported this couple because of their sweet chemistry. Not only that, but the two once traveled to Paris, France, to take part in a picture shoot for the magazine. Although the corporation dismissed their relationship allegations, Kang Dong Won once expressed his admiration for Song Hye Kyo’s stunning beauty.
There were even rumors that Kang Dong Won had repeatedly expressed his desire to date Song Hye Kyo but failed. Only when Song Joong Ki appeared did Kang Dong Won give up his unrequited love for her. But all of this is still just a rumor, with absolutely no real evidence.
In 2018, Kang Dong Won was rumored to be dating Han Hyo Joo when netizens caught the two together in the US. However, the management company quickly denied this rumor.
Song Seung Hun
At the age of 50, possessing a beautiful appearance and a huge fortune, Song Seung Hun has not shown any signs of wanting to get married so far.
Song Seung Hun has dated many beauties such as Sung Yuri, Choi Ji Woo, Liu Yifei. However, all these relationships quickly ended. Song Seung Hun’s most mentioned lover is Liu Yifei.
Song Seung Hun and Liu Yifei started dating after the joint work “The Third Way of Love”. In 2015, the couple confirmed that they were dating. But this beautiful love story lasted only 2 years and then ended, making the public regret. Since then, Song Seung Hun has not publicly dated anyone.
