There are news around korea cyberspace about Kwon Sang Woo to wed this coming September 28 at Shilla Hotel (Seoul). And who is the lucky girl? It was Son Tae-Young, former Miss Korea and now an actress (Doremifasolatido, Marrying a Millionaire). While the respective management agencies of the two have yet to release official statements.

The two met earlier this year at a small party with mutual celebrity friends. It is said that they have received the approval of their families. Kwon was quoted as telling a friend "I have met my life partner and I can imagine spending the rest of my life with her" and that he wants to speed up the wedding and make a home.

To this, Sohn's management agency expressed as much surprise as her fans. "They're both very prudent people and we didn't know they were dating," Boston Entertainment was quoted as saying by Sports Chosun. An official press release will be filed soon.

Major domestic portal sites like Naver have shown heated interest in the star couple, and Netizens are particularly discussing Sohn's dating history. In 2001, the screen beauty made headlines for dating actor Shin Hyun-joon shortly after splitting with famed songwriter Joo Young-hoon. A so-called love triangle among the three drew much public attention. Sohn again became the talk of the town when she got involved with music video director Cool Kay in 2006 and openly expressed the pains of breaking up on a TV talk show last year.

Son Tae Young Getting ‘Abuse’ from Marrying Kwon Sang Woo
July 21, 2008 by coolsmurf

Son Tae Young is currently hurting after fan objections to her impending marriage to Kwon Sang Woo on 28th September at Joong Gu Shilla Hotel.

Kwon Sang Woo had hastily announced his plans to wed Son Tae Young last Friday after rumors of him dating her had spread like wildfire the day before. However, some netizens have since voiced their objections to the marriage, in particularly directing their attention towards Son Tae Young.

These netizens claimed that since entering the Korean entertainment industry as the 3rd runner-up in Miss Korea 2000, Son Tae Young has had several scandals with male artistes, with some even making the headlines.

One netizen sarcastically pointed out, “Following Joo Young Hoo, Shin Hyun Joon, Tae Young Yoon, Cool.K, it’s Kwon Sang Woo’s turn now?” Another pointed out, “Just recently on tv, she said that because of the hurt from past relationships, it’s hard for me to fall in love again…”

But there were others who blessed their marriage, “No matter what people say, as long as both of you love each other, getting married is natural. Just prove them wrong by living a blissful life together.”

Meanwhile, in reply to this “hate campaign” against his wife-to-be, Kwon Sang Woo posted a message on his fancafe earlier this morning.

These people (reporters and antis) never stops blabbering…I’m tearing as I’m writing this.

Is this the right way for these reporters and people to pass judgement about my wedding? Who has the right to judge my decision and about my wife?

Son Tae Young has suffered lots of hurt from the media. Her actions and past relationships are all laid out bare for all to see, but…

I have also experienced relationships and breakups. I’m not asking for you to understand and accept Son Tae Young. I just know that my opinion is the most important thing.

I, Kwon Sang Woo is not in love and getting married with a Miss Korea. I am really in love and getting married with a woman. I really don’t like the media fabricating stuff like she’s pregnant, comparing my marriage with Yoo Jae Suk, etc…

Money, fame. If you just look up to these, there won’t be an end to it. Let’s work a bit more, let’s earn a bit more money, let’s accumulate more popularity. There are people who gives up their love because of that. I don’t want to do that.

That’s the unfortunate baggage that you have to live with as a top celebrity. Hope that they can get through this quickly and get married happily.

whaaaaa.....
another hottie's going to tie a knot...darn (sob)
well he deserve to be happy.lucky girl
moving on to another bachelor..

this is good news then, ive seen her (Son Tae-Young) in the series marrying a millionaire and she's pretty sweet, i just want to wish them best wishes in advance.

that's a good news. Ganbatte!
