A mega-wattage celebrity couple has been born, after national heartthrob Jang Dong-gun and actress Ko So-young tied the knot Sunday.
Jang and Ko, both 38, wed at Shilla Hotel in a private ceremony where only 500 family, relatives and friends were invited.
But the couple appeared before the press for a short photo op. Fans were also seen lining up to get a glimpse of their favorite stars hours ahead of the event at the hotel in Jangchung-dong, Seoul.
``(Public) attention was at times pleasant and other times burdensome, but today I am only thankful,'' said the groom. ``I don't know if it's a boy or girl yet, but personally it would be nice to have a daughter who looks like Ko So-young.'' Ko is already three months pregnant, Jang's management agency AM Entertainment has said.
``Thank you. We will try our best to have a happy life,'' added Ko.
Lee O-yong, former culture minister and renowned author, officiated at the marriage while fellow actor Park Joong-hoon emceed. Ballad singer Shin Seung-hun sang to celebrate the occasion.
Actress Lee Hye-young received Ko's bouquet. The flower decorations at Dynasty Hall were done by Hollywood's popular floral artist Jeff Letham.
The two will honeymoon in Bali, Indonesia and live in a villa in Heukseok-dong, Seoul.
The two met on the set of the 1998 film ``Love Wind, Love Song'' and became friends. They made headlines last fall when they admitted that they had been dating since 2007.
In June, the Jang will start his next film project, ``D-Day.'' Meanwhile the trailer for his Hollywood debut piece, ``The Warrior's Way,'' was recently revealed. The film, which will be released this summer, co-stars Kate Bosworth and Geoffrey Rush and was produced by Barrie Osborne, who is known for ``Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King.''
