rubie Posted July 11, 2018 Share Posted July 11, 2018 July 11, 2018 Leave my husband alone, pleads actress Choi By Dong Sun-hwa The Korea Times Veteran actress Choi Ji-woo, 43, has complained about the release of her husband's personal information. The Dispatch Tuesday reported that Choi's husband is the CEO of an online-to-offline mobile application company, nine years younger than Choi and the two were dating for three years. It also said Choi helped him with his new business in 2014 and changed his name in 2015. The report contradicted Choi's agency, YG Entertainment's explanation that they were dating for a year. YG said Choi was under duress and asked people and the media to refrain from making assumptions. The two had a private wedding in March and little was revealed then about the groom. Choi starred in the seminal K-drama "Winter Sonata" in 2003. sunhwadong@gmail.com 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The show is inspired by the duo’s “Coffee Friends” project, where they gave cups of coffee to citizens in exchange for donations. The goal was to show people that it isn’t difficult to start donating to those in need. Now, they will be taking the concept to another level as they sell coffee and brunch at a cafe. Anticipation is rising as it has been revealed that producing director (PD) Na Young Suk will be a creative director for the show. He has worked with the two actors on popular variety shows like “Youth Over Flowers” and “Three Meals a Day.” The show will be directed by PD Park Hee Yeon, who has co-directed many shows with PD Na Young Suk as well as programs like “Teacher Baek” and “Street Food Fighter.” Just like how Yoo Yeon Seok and Son Ho Jun invited friends to help run their coffee truck for the “Coffee Friends” project, the show will also invite guests to work as part-time employees. The first guests on the show will be Choi Ji Woo and Yang Se Jong. Choi Ji Woo was invited by Son Ho Jun after getting to know each other on “Three Meals a Day,” and Yang Se Jong will be making his first-ever variety show appearance after being invited by Yoo Yeon Seok. PD Park Hee Yeon said, “We have decided to launch this new variety show after being inspired by the donation project Yoo Yeon Seok and Son Ho Jun led this year. The various happenings that take place in the cafe will move viewers and also bring laughter to them.” Yoo Yeon Seok and Son Ho Jun’s “Coffee Friends” is set to premiere on tvN in January 2019.
