After marriage registration, So Ji Sub and wife uses villa worth 6.1 billion won as newlywed house

 

 

On April 7, So Ji Sub and Jo Eun Jung registered their marriage and officially became a legal couple. At the same time, the villa that the actor owns in Hannam Ward becomes their newlywed house.

According to OSEN on April 7, So Ji Sub bought a luxury villa in Hannam Ward, Seoul with cash for 6.1 billion won in 2019. This villa is currently used as the couple's newlywed house.

Earlier, in June 2019, the news that So Ji Sub bought a villa in Hannam Ward, Seoul, where is known as the most expensive place in Korea, attracted a lot of attention. Accordingly, the villa has a total area of 91 pyeong (about 300m²), a specialized area of 70 pyeong (about 230m²) and was purchased for 6.1 billion won in cash.

At that time, a representative of So Ji Sub's 51K management company told OSEN, "It is true that So Ji Sub bought a villa in Hannam Ward but that is just for him to move in. It's too early to guess that he moves to a wedding house before getting married."

Although the article titled "So Ji Sub purchases a villa for newlywed house" caused many misunderstandings, finally, this is still considered the couple's newlywed house.

Today (April 7), 51K, So Ji Sub's management agency, made an official announcement, "So Ji Sub has tied the knot with his lover. After publicizing their relationship in 2019, the two promised to be life partners based on trust and love for each other. They have become a legitimate couple with their marriage registration today (April 7)."

Hi Anotherstar, my wish is the same, too! I posted it here (some pages back) about report that SJS purchased the villa last year in cash. So, they have already moved in. Although, his agency then had denied that he did in preparation for a marriage. I guess they're just protecting his privacy as he was not officially gotten married yet. I' m happy that his fans all over the world have been congratulating him on this great news. 

[willenette]

*** SJS 's agency denies rumor of shotgun wedding since it began floating on K-sites. Although, they confirmed that the couple have no plans for a honeymoon at the moment due to the ongoing covid pandemic worldwide. He'll focus on filming his new movie, "Alien".

Silent yet solid love story of newlyweds So Ji Sub and Jo Eun Jung

 

 

The couple So Ji Sub and Jo Eun Jung have been married after a short dating time.
 
So Ji Sub (44 years old) and Jo Eun Jung (27 years old) became a legitimate couple after 1 year of publicly dating.
 
On April 7, actor So Ji Sub's agency, 51K Entertainment announced, "So Ji Sub has tied the knot with his lover. After publicizing their relationship in 2019, the two promised to be life partners based on trust and love for each other. They have become a legitimate couple with their marriage registration today."
 
So Ji Sub and Jo Eun Jung met for the first time when the actor participated in "E-news Exclusive" (SBS) and conducted an interview to promote the movie "Be with You". About a year later, the couple publicized their dating. And another year later, they quietly got married, thereby showing the two's cautious. Around that time, Jo Eun Jung also arranged her activities in the artist circle.
 
In particular, the moment the news of dating Jo Eun Jung broke out, So Ji Sub first acknowledged the relationship after 24 years of debut, making the public curious about his intention to get married. In the past, whenever a question about dating rumors or scandals arose, So Ji Sub always denied and said it was all baseless news. The actor's marriage to his first publicly dating girlfriend showed his sincere heart.
 
Jo Eun Jung, So Ji Sub's fiancee, was born in 1994 and majored in Traditional Korean Dance at Ewha Woman's University after graduating from the Korean Dance Department at Yewon School and Seoul Arts High School. In July 2014, she joined OGN (OnGameNet) and took on the role of MC hosting game-related programs. Since the end of 2016, she has been working as a reporter for "E-news Exclusive".
 
Well aware of the tough situation of the country due to the Covid-19 epidemic, So Ji Sub and Jo Eun Jung decided to quietly hold a small wedding with the participation of their families. At the same time, instead of holding a splendid wedding ceremony, the couple decided to make a 50-million-won donation to Good Neighbors to provide children who are not fully educated with smart devices and tablet PCs.
 
Earlier, So Ji Sub had donated 300 million won to help repair the damages of the Covid-19 epidemic. After that, the actor also generously contributed another 50 million won.
 
In response to the unexpected marriage news of So Ji Sub and Jo Eun Jung, netizens left many comments such as, "At first I felt a bit uncomfortable because of the 17-year-old gap between the two, but honestly, they look so beautiful together", "That's truly So Ji Sub's style in both love and marriage. Congratulations", "I haven't heard any news about them since the time when their dating photos appeared so I forgot about the couple. It seems their relationship has been going really well."

I've never posted in this thread before but I have tons of respect for SJS as an actor and am so delighted to hear this news! Even before a person is a celebrity, they are a *person,* and deserve the same rights and happinesses as anyone else. I'm glad he found someone he wanted to spend his life with, and I hope they'll be extremely happy. I'm also impressed at their generous donation, and I'm looking forward to the day that this horrible virus retreats and we can enjoy his upcoming film. Yay, SJS! Congratulations!

Yes, many MANY famous people in Korean entertainment live there. Just think if you did a block party just with the talent in that one spot. !! 

[salad71]

Hi...everyone...

 

I've been silent for a really long time.  Words cannot describe how happy i was when he announced his decision to tie a knot. First we saw the announcement from korean site but it was taken down. Right after that, through 51k, Ji-sub ssi made the official announcement. I am really happy for the couple. Many FCs from the Asia countries sent congratulatory flowers and cards for well wishes. I do hope that his fans will continue to love him as i do and the rest of you in this lovely forum. 

 

Once again, congrats So Ji Sub-ssi. We will continue to support and love you just like we always do. Here's our well wishes to him and Jo Eun-Jung. 

 

 

[killarhee]

Congrats to them, but I really don't see what a forty something year old would have in common with a 23/24 year old person. I could understand a thirty something person involved with a fifty something because they've had more life experience and bring that into a relationship. I wonder how his BFF feels about it since neither of them admitted to a relationship until recently.

After marriage registration, So Ji Sub and wife uses villa worth 6.1 billion won as newlywed house

We all knew he purchased the residence for his marriage, I don't see why he lied about it. It's strange that they got married during the pandemic and are claiming it's not a shotgun wedding. Anyway, good luck to them.

[ppink]

I have to agree it is strange if ITS ONLY FILING marriage papers, could they not wait till COVID-19 blows over?

I mean its only filing papers and a dinner that can be HELD After Covid-19. What are we missing that they cannot wait?

They deny everything, of course it is not Shotgun Wedding.

Later, it will be "it was done to protect" the privacy so we have to lie to fans.

I will be upfront I'm disappointed.

 

 

 

Full respect for them to live their lives the way they want, however I think when you make money off the public, 

a little honesty and not making the fans seem so stupid and dumb, could be handled more tactfully. I'm out.

 

I remember now, why we have loved this guy, he's a great actor which can be parlayed into real life skills.

Hello Willenette, I have been a So Ji Sub fan since a very long time ago but have never post anything on his thread. Thank you for sharing his update. I am so happy to know his fans are very supportive of his personal life and career. I have a lot of respect for this man. My cousins and her friends met him many times in Korean and here in the state when he had his concert in Seattle. He's very kind and polite as I was expecting. Love him for who he is and him as an actor. Will still support him with all his productions. Knowing he is finally settling down with the person he love, I'm happy.

Princess Beatrice canceled her wedding and I'm sure that cost her alot of money.

Hi killarhee, well, I guess the couple really wanted to push-through with the wedding as not to waste all of their plans. And ..... SJS must have love her very much that he wants to spend the rest of his life with her. As far as I remember he didn't even deny that he's dating her when they got caught by Dispatch before.
