“♥Hyun Bin is destiny..Son Ye  Jin, '23 years of no controversy' The second act of the unrivaled top actress 

2024.07.13

 

 

[STAR NEWS]
Top star Son Ye-jin (42) is the envy of the public for her 'unique' path that has caught two rabbits, work and love. As a long-running actress for 23 years, wife of fellow actress Hyun Bin, and mother of a son, she is foreshadowing a second chapter of success. Son Ye-jin is the epitome of an exemplary top star. She debuted in 1999 with a CF and entered the acting world in 2001 with the drama 'Delicious Proposal'. She has already been an actress for 23 years, but during those two years of changing seasons, there has been no controversy, not even the usual pink scandals. The three dating rumors with her current husband Hyun Bin are the biggest scandals in Son Ye-jin's acting career. Hyun Bin, who worked together on the movie 'Negotiation' (2018) and the drama 'Crash Landing on You' (2022), got married in March 2022 and had a son in November of that year. Son Ye-jin's filmography is truly amazing, as she has been managing herself so thoroughly. She has established herself as one of the best actors in Korea by 'all-killing' the big screen and the small screen. He has shown various transformations in many films regardless of genre, such as 'Romance Novel' (2022), 'The Classic' (2003), 'A Moment to Remember' (2004), 'Going Out' (2005), 'The Classics of Work' (2005), 'Open City' (2008), 'My Wife Got Married' (2008), 'White Night' (2009), 'Chilling Romance' (2011), 'The Accomplice' (2013), 'The Pirates' (2014), 'The Truth Beneath' (2016), 'Princess Deokhye' (2016), and 'Be with You Now' (2018). In addition, he rose to stardom as a Hallyu star early on, producing numerous hit dramas such as 'Sunhee Jinhee' (2001), 'Summer Scent' (2003), 'Love Era' (2006), 'Spotlight' (2008), 'Personal Taste' (2010), 'Shark' (2013), 'Something in the Rain' (2018), and 'Crash Landing on You'.

 

 

Son Ye-jin herself expressed pride in her diverse filmography, saying, "When I didn't know what was cool, I was a divorcee, a mother, and a husband twice." She even ambitiously stated, "I don't want to set any more limits in the future." No wonder she 

is entitled to the title, 'Unrivaled Son Ye-jin.' Son Ye-jin met the public for the first time in a long time at the 'Special Actor Exhibition' under that title at the 28th Bucheon International Fantastic Film Festival (BIFAN) held this month. 

At the event, Son Ye-jin looked back, saying, "I struggled and whipped myself because I didn't want to be limited to one image," and emphasized that she had opened 'Chapter 2 of my life' by saying, "A new world opened up after marriage and childbirth." He expressed his enthusiasm by saying, "It feels like Chapter 1 of my acting career has ended, but I think this has become an opportunity for me to leap forward again. These days, I'm doing well, feeling happy and in a different world thanks to raising my child. If I were to film the same movie now, I think I would act very differently. I'm also very curious to see what kind of acting I can show you in the future." 

The influence of having a stable family has brought about tremendous changes for 'actress Son Ye-jin', so we can't help but look forward to her second act. He raised his voice, saying, "I want to act as diversely, as much, as often, and for as long as possible. I have this grand idea of becoming an actor who will be with the public for a long time in the future. I want to take responsibility for my face, show how I age naturally, and show acting that fits my age."

In particular, Son Ye-jin not only shared the joy of becoming a mother, but also confessed her solid love for Hyun Bin, setting a good example of a 'star couple'. On the 6th, at a mega talk held as part of BIFAN's 'Actor Special Exhibition', she was asked a straightforward question by an audience member, "When and at what point did you feel, 'As the woman Son Ye-jin, and as the person Son Ye-jin, I want to spend the rest of my life with that person' after meeting Hyun Bin?" 

Son Ye-jin honestly answered, "Actors meet co-stars while working on numerous projects, and in the process, many of them get married or date. But I didn't prefer that kind of thing." 

She then added, "But fate... People keep saying that we (Hyun Bin and I) look alike. I've never really thought we looked alike. But because they said we looked alike, I kept seeing them and thought, 'Do we feel similar?' This is what I thought. (With Hyun Bin) I worked on two projects with him, and I was more impressed by his personality than anything else. If I were to compare him to someone from the past, he would be like a scholar. He is very upright and rational. I liked that he was not the type of person to try to make things look good or to package himself. He had a very simple and trustworthy personality. He is also handsome and tall, isn't he?" he said, showing his affection.

Up to now, Hyun Bin and Son Ye-jin remain one of the most followed and admired couples in South Korea. After “Crash Landing on You,” their decision to get married has thrilled and moved audiences immensely. However, few know that this is a beautiful fairy tale journey of 10 years, starting from the moment the young man was remarked to have “fallen in love at first sight.”

Specifically, a series of images from 10 years ago of Hyun Bin and Son Ye-jin are making a resounding comeback. These are moments when the beautiful couple of the Korean screen first met, attending an event at the  Pifan Awards 2014. At that time, Hyun Bin and Son Ye-jin both received an award in the same category, Producer’s Choice, and stood together on stage. While Son Ye-jin was speaking, Hyun Bin was spotted gazing intently at his female colleague, looking very attentive.

 

Hyun Bin’s actions have now delighted netizens, leading to the video being widely shared on social media. Especially afterward, when Son Ye-jin finished speaking and turned to smile at Hyun Bin, the actor raised his eyebrows slightly and smiled back at his colleague. 

 

 

Long-time fans of Hyun Bin will surely be surprised because he has always been calm, even serious and aloof, rarely showing emotions.
 

However, Son Ye-jin is one of the rare people who can make Hyun Bin unable to control his emotions.

Many netizens believe that this is the moment when Hyun Bin fell in “love at first sight” for Son Ye-jin, and Hyun Bin also adds to this suspicion. In particular, when asked by the media if they remember their first meeting, Son Ye-jin often mistakenly recalls meeting Hyun Bin through the 2017 film “Negotiation.” However, Hyun Bin corrected her and remembered vividly the award ceremony mentioned above in 2014.

Below are some comments from netizens: 
* He was love-struck since meeting her for the first time
* The fact that he remembers this moment speaks volumes 
* LOL he was in love at first sight

Now, 10 years have passed since the first meeting of Hyun Bin and Son Ye-jin, and they have become the one of most powerful couples in the Korean entertainment industry.
