♡❤ The JjongAh Couple ❤♡



❤ Names ❤  Hong Jong Hyun ♡ Yura (Kim Ah Young)(홍종현 & 유라/김아영) 
❤ Ages ❤ 25 & 22 (International age)
❤ Occupations ❤He - Model/ActorShe - Idol (Girls Day's member)/Actress

❤ How did they meet ❤This highly celebrated (by fans) and uber-controversial (by fans) couple emerged from the empire that managed to make cabbage seem appealing and sweet potatoes sweeter than a bar of sinfully delicious chocolate. This empire that surprisingly still has a couple of tricks up their sleeves, although they aren't as fierce as a Gundam toy, they still offered a wisp of temptation that Adam himself wouldn't have been able to resist.  
Kim Ahyoung (Girl's Day Yura) and Hong Jonghyun (Model & Actor) met on the show We Got Married on May 28, 2014. They met at Yura's primary place of work, MBC Yeouido building , where Yura reported for duty and was imprisoned in a waiting room far away from the other activities to wait for her hypothetical prince and virtual husband to come and rescue her from her prison. 
And rescue he did, albeit with a few, or several minor mishaps along the way. He had to deal with frustrating clues that led him to from the ground floor to the top of the building and had his first glimpse at what married life with his virtual wife would be; he tried to cajole her into informing him information and she began to pun away to her heart's content. By trial and error he was able to happen upon her fortress of solitude and rescued her from her trio of well wishing cackling members; otherwise known as his new sisters-in-law.
Thus began the story of Hong Jonghyun and Yura; a series of mishaps and misunderstandings that led to the birth of this beautiful and impossibly sweet couple that culminated in Jonghyun finding his virtual wife and taking her hand into his own as they walked down the aisle together as one of the only WGM couple to 'marry' each other on their first meeting in a fanciful and beautiful early summer shotgun marriage.

Ages: 33 and 30 (34 and 31 in Korean Age)

Occupations: Actor and Actress, models

How did they meet: They met back in 2005 when they starred together on the hit drama “My Girl”. When Da Hae first saw Wookie, she thought he was cold and detached. She recalls that she told him that she would do all the talk when they would have to work, and he was fine with it because he wasn't the talkative type. On the other hand, Wookie commented that his partner was always happy and bubbly. Soon enough, Da Hae's giddy personality and Wookie's serious attitude came into a perfect accord and they were able not only to create ad-libbed scenes on their drama, but also show incredible chemistry that made everyone wonder if the line between fictional and real was crossed. Something really bloomed between them towards the end of filming, and rumors of their possible relationship spread everywhere for over two years after they were seen at an event together in 2006, and after they wore several couple items and often mentioned each other. ♡

Fandom name: DongHae

The couple in three words: CREATIVE and ECLECTIC because they are able to donate various shades of emotions on every work they act on. But they are also UNPREDICTABLE AD-LIB COUPLE, because they tend to add their own ad-libs on the dramas they've acted together.

｡ ❤ ｡ Quotes ｡ ❤ ｡

“I and Lee Da-hae had many memories. Everytime when she is sad, I’m sad too. We like each other, because we always bring happiness to each other. It can’t be denied that, at many times I had thought what will happen if Da-hae is my girlfriend.” - Lee Dong Wook in 2013

“Truthfully, when it comes to lovey-dovey scenes or harsh dialogue, we try to be careful about it but we’re filming things well by working things out together. During ‘My Girl,’ it was fresh but now there is a comfortable feeling as if we’ve been dating for a long time. We would argue from time to time and take care of each other when we can and it’s fun.” - Lee Da Hae in 2014 during “Hotel King” Press Conference

“Yesterday, I wrote on SNS: ‘Da Hae-ssi, My Ah Mo Ne…‘ what I wrote was really sincere. After eight years acting together again, it’s such a privilege. You’ve gotten more beautiful since then… more mature.” - Lee Dong Wook in 2014 on the last day of “Hotel King” filming

“Thank you so much to Dong Wook oppa. You were the greatest actor and I was happy to be able to act with you. Let’s meet again in another 10 years and let’s love again!” - Lee Da Hae in 2014 after the ending of “Hotel King”

Names:

WANG JACKSON / HEO YOUNGJI

(왕 잭슨/ 허영지)

Ages:

Both 20 y/o (International Age)

 

Occupations:

JS – Idol (GOT7 member). He was a former national fencer (sabre) of the Hong Kong fencing team.

YJ – Idol (newest KARA member), known for winning the TV show Kara Project in 2014.

 

How did they meet:

This lovable and almost-always bickering couple, who could turn a simple trip to the grocery into an adventure rivaling that of Percy Jackson, was born from the popular share house. Theirs was a story of two people oozing with unbelievable chemistry that most people around them can’t help but say that they will end up getting married (with each other) every time they bicker.

Jackson debuted with GOT7 in January 2014. When Roommate first started in 2014, he auditioned for the cast of Season 1. But destiny has other plans as he failed the audition. Meanwhile, Youngji initially promised her parents to give up on being a singer if she failed to get into KARA as she has been a trainee for a long time. She was eventually announced the winner of KARA project and made her debut in August 2014. Both are rookie idols tossed into the limelight with their regular variety show and raring to prove their worth.

As fate would have it, both were cast in Roommate’s Season 2. Destiny decided it's time for them to meet on the 13th of September when they started filming. And finally on the 21st of the same month, a refreshing relationship that no one expected was born on our screens. Although both are awkward at first, our guy immediately made an impression by doing his now patented 360° front flip. Whether by some forces of nature or just sheer out of the moment impulse, he did it twice –  only for her. Our girl, on the other hand, impressed with her no-nonsense attitude and her trademark muted uvula laugh. Both connected well with their common passion for basketball, exercise and the number 7.  

Their bright personalities won their new roommates over and endeared themselves as the cute maknaes that everyone has the pleasure of watching over. Neither we nor they were able to realize that we just witnessed a beautiful story unfold right before our eyes – the story of the cute maknaes whose bickering will be (from that moment onward) a way of life!

2Young/YY Couple

NamesJang Wooyoung (2PM) & Park Seyoung
Ages25 & 26  (International Age)
OccupationsWooyoung - Idol, Singer, Dancer, Composer, Producer, Actor, Model
Seyoung - Actress, Singer, Model
How did they meetNot all love stories start at first sight. For some, it could take several sightings over the span of 2-plus years for their love story to come to fruition.
Park Seyoung (Faith, School 2013, Fashion King) and Jang Wooyoung (2PM, Dream High) first breathed the same air on the set of a Coca Cola CF in 2012. Due to misaligned stars, Seyoung ended up being paired up with Wooyoung's fellow 2PM members, while he was off elsewhere on the set. After that CF, Seyoung went off to star in several dramas, making a name for herself in the KDrama industry, while Wooyoung released several more albums with 2PM, and debuted as a solo artist.
Throughout 2013, it seems as if the stars would eventually align themselves. Yet, the several occasions in which the two, once again, shared the same recycled air, this time on the set of 'Music Bank', resulted in mere passing glances and quick hellos & thank yous.
Their celestial puzzle, finally, pieced itself together on December 31, 2013, when they both received envelopes informing them of their impending marriage to a mysterious partner. Then, on a cold January 2, 2014, with nervous hearts and over-sized teddy bears in tow, the two set off to the cafe that would serve as the setting for two of the most important days of their lives.
In that cafe, the beastly idol, with his arsenal of aegyo, waited anxiously for the angelic beauty, whose bluntness could put baseball bats to shame. As she stepped through the blue doors of the chocolate cafe, he braced himself, eyes closed and knees shaking, as he listened to each step that would bring her into his life.
As she entered the room, giving him a shy hello, he kept his eyes closed and face down, silently bracing himself for the introduction that would change his life. Gathering courage, he looked up into the eyes of a matching teddy bear. Letting out a nervous laugh, he helped settle her teddy bear next to his. Smiling, he greeted her shyly. As they introduced themselves, two nervous hands clasped in a handshake, they embarked upon their unconventional, whirlwind romance, setting fires aflame in the hearts of shippers worldwide.

When producers decided to set them up, each of them was given a box with a smart phone inside. The smart phone showed them each other's location on a map so they just had to track each other's movements and meet at some point. Believe it or not, this couple lives in the same neighborhood. Eventually, Namgoong Min ended up in the neighborhood park (Hakdong Park) and then decided to wait for his wife. Tired from walking but excited nonetheless, Hong Jinyoung tried to sneak up behind her husband and surprise him.

On their first meeting,they both got a surprise. However, because neither one expected their partner. He was doubtful about her being his wife because she was the one member of the WGM’s panel. She was hesitant because she couldn't remember his name even if she recognized his face and said he was really average. They both expecting younger idol.  

   Another misunderstanding arose when Hong Jinyoung tried some aegyo on her new husband, causing him to wonder, “Is she acting cute?” In return, Namgoong Min’s gentle speech and manner caused another misunderstanding, with Hong Jinyoung wondering, “Is he pretending to be attentive?”.

Despite their awkward first meeting and opposite personalities, the two are enjoying an incredibly long marriage filled with fun, laughter, honest and sweet moments. It’s just goes to show that love comes in the most unexpected ways.
