Actor Lee Jang-woo revealed that he plans to marry his girlfriend, actress Cho Hye Won, next year.
On December 11, MBC's television show 'Brewer Lee' featured Lee Jang-woo and his acquaintances, entertainer Hong Seok-chun and chef Lee Won-il.
As Lee Jang-woo was preparing a dish, Hong Seok-chun asked him a question many have been wondering.
"Jang-woo, you're a decent guy and a great cook. When are you going to get married?"
"I've been planning to do it next year.", Lee Jang-woo replied, revealing a detailed plan for his marriage for the first time.
In June last year, Lee Jang-woo and Cho Hye Won confirmed their romantic relationship.
The two shared that their relationship blossomed into romance after working together in KBS' 2018 television series 'My Only One'.
Lee Jang-woo recently appeared on cartoonist KIAN84's YouTube channel and talked about his relationship with Cho Hye Won.
"We've been together for six years.", the actor remarked, "My vibe has changed in a good way through our relationship. It's fascinating."
He added, "I'd like to have as many children as possible if she's okay with that."
In a previous episode of 'Brewer Lee', Lee Jang-woo once again expressed his dream of becoming a father of a large family.
"'The only thing in life that will stay with you is your family.', my father said. Keeping that in mind, I think I'd like to have many children when I'm married."
Lee Jang-woo and Cho Hye Won have not been hiding their affection since they admitted their relationship.
Lee Jang-woo invited Cho Hye Won on his YouTube channel, and Cho Hye Won visited Lee Jang-woo's restaurant, a udon place, and posted a picture of herself there on her social media account.
On December 29 last year, Lee Jang-woo won the Top Excellence Award at the 2023 MBC Entertainment Awards for his effort on MBC's television show 'I Live Alone'.
His acceptance speech garnered extra attention as he mentioned his marriage plan with Cho Hye Won.
"To my girlfriend: I think we might need to postpone our marriage for a little while. Can I please have some more time on 'I Live Alone'? I love you so much.", the actor remarked.
The reason Lee Jang-woo talked about postponing his marriage is that 'I Live Alone', through which he garnered popularity, is a show featuring the life of celebrities who are single.
As the actor finally shared that he and his girlfriend are planning their wedding next year, people are showering him with heartfelt congratulations.
