The entertainment industry never fails to keep us on our toes. This August brought not just exciting news about upcoming dramas and music releases, but also updates on the love lives of some of our favorite stars. Three Korean celebrity couples have made their romantic relationships public this month, and fans are buzzing with excitement. Let’s dive into the details of these newly confirmed couples.
Han Ji Min and Choi Jung Hoon: A Fan-Turned-Love Story
One of the most surprising and heartwarming announcements came from actress Han Ji Min and JANNABI’s frontman, Choi Jung Hoon. On August 8, 2024, both BH Entertainment and Peponi Music confirmed that the two are in a relationship.
Han Ji Min, a beloved actress known for her roles in various dramas, has been a longtime fan of JANNABI. She was often seen attending their concerts. The pair first connected through the KBS2 show The Seasons: Choi Jung Hoon’s Night Park, where their chemistry was evident to viewers. Although there is a 10-year age gap, with Han Ji Min born in 1982 and Choi Jung Hoon in 1992, their relationship has blossomed beautifully. Fans are thrilled for the couple, who seem perfectly matched.
Eun Ga Eun and Park Hyun Ho: From Idol to Trot Stars
Another couple stepping into the spotlight this August is Eun Ga Eun and Park Hyun Ho. On August 9, 2024, Park Hyun Ho’s agency confirmed their relationship, much to the delight of fans. Park, a former member of the boy group ToppDogg, successfully transitioned to a trot singer. Meanwhile, Eun Ga Eun rose to fame after participating in Miss Trot 2.
Their love story is made even sweeter by their deep connection through music. With a 5-year age difference—Eun Ga Eun born in 1987 and Park Hyun Ho in 1992—the couple seems to have found harmony both on and off the stage. Fans are rooting for their success, and their relationship has sparked joy.
Kim Ji Seok and Lee Joo Myung: A Blossoming Romance
The third couple making headlines is actor Kim Ji Seok and actress Lee Joo Myung. On August 14, 2024, Alien Company confirmed the couple’s relationship. Kim Ji Seok, who began his acting career relatively late in 2021, quickly made a name for himself. Lee Joo Myung, known for her roles in dramas like The Man Who Takes a Shower (2017), reportedly did not renew her contract with YG Entertainment. Instead, she joined the same agency as Kim Ji Seok.
The couple has an 11-year age gap—Kim Ji Seok was born in 1981, while Lee Joo Myung was born in 1993. Despite this, their love story is already capturing the hearts of fans. With Lee Joo Myung set to star in the upcoming drama My Youth in 2025, their relationship is expected to grow even stronger.
