Wedding bells (almost, kinda) for Jung Jun Ho

It is with some trepidation that I read the articles for this post — not out of some kind of uber-fannish love for actor Jung Jun Ho (although he IS handsome), but because I am assiduously avoiding any news that is related to The Last Scandal of My Life for fear of being spoiled as to its finale, which aired yesterday.

(And you thought I was kidding about hating spoilers, right? I’m pretty hardcore — even watching previews at the end of an episode ruins the fun for me. I was halfway through Delightful Girl Chun Hyang before I realized I’d missed a whole bunch of the ending parodies because I’d been skipping the end-credit previews.)

But anyway.

Jung Jun Ho’s been in the news a bit since Last Scandal has been airing, and the current buzz centers around his love life. Reports started circulating on April 28 about his plans to marry an unidentified woman (“Ms. P”); later that evening, he spoke with reporters at a drama wrap gathering and confirmed the relationship with the 32-year-old woman (he’s 38). The couple met earlier this year; he recently proposed and he hopes to tie the knot before the end of 2008.

His drama co-stars expressed their delight over the news: Jung Woong In (who plays his older brother Dong Hwa) said, “When he talked on his cell phone, I’d heard a woman’s voice, and now it turns out we have this great news.” Byun Jung Soo (playing Lee Na Yoon) said jokingly, “I hope he gets married this year. He’d better hurry!”

You know, it's strange how much your interest for a drama really affects the way you perceive an actor or an actress. Before Last Scandal, I had very little interest in Jung Jun Ho. Maybe it was because Princess LuLu was so nauseating for me or I never really got into his movies. But Last Scandal made me see him in a different (muhshitneun) light. AHAHA. Well good for him. I hope for much happiness to him and his girlfriend.

Javabeans, you should try to check out the episode of him and Jung Woong In in X-Man of when they were promoting the film My Boss My Teacher. I know the variety show is over, but it's so ridiculously funny and we get a glimpse of how these two actors interact with another off screen.

Awww...congrats to him.

And boy you ARE hardcore about spoilers. The DGCH example is pretty funny though lol....especially since I was rewatching it.

I'm weak so I can't stand those darn cliff-hangers at times...I just have to know what's happening next or I get distracted thinking about it :P

Like I said, I'm weak. haha.

Less than four months and he popped the question? I hear divorce papers getting signed shortly after those wedding bells. But I hope it works out, sometimes when you know you know!

Hi javabeans,

I'm one of the silent readers here on your site and really appreciate you blogging your thoughts and summaries so that people like me who either don't know Korean or don't have the time to watch the series as they come out can enjoy the recaps and the news articles on your blog. I generally don't have much time to comment with detail on each recap and I don't think that a short comment serves the time you put into the recaps too much justice.

Anyway, back to the main reason I'm writing this right now. I had just read this post on your blog when I decided to go to asianfanatics.net to catch up on some news. There I found that someone had taken your post and posted it as news on AF. I wasn't sure whether you minded or not whether people posted your blog posts on other sites so I not yet done anything. However, I figured that you might want to know seeing as how you are credited as only having translated the articles from your sources.
Here is the post: http://asianfanatics.net/forum/Wedding-bells-almost-kinda-for-Jung-Jun-Ho-talk533150.html

Whether you do anything about it or not, I want to express my thanks once again for providing such entertaining blog posts for all to read and enjoy.

Best,
Zahra

oh that picture of him in the suit is so nice..i've always liked his acting he was so funny and charming in My Boss My Teacher...i know he's older than some of the actors now-a-days but he does have some boyish qualities to him =)..i think it's his nose that makes him stands out a bit hehe..but that's pretty fast to be getting marry in the same year you've meet..i guess he's getting old and wants to settle down..anyways best wishes to them both

I've heard about this news sometimes ago.
I feel happy for him, because from what I read, JJH is a nice, humble person despite that he's a respected actor and successful business man.
I hope he'll find a great woman..

Dramabeans -
Hey, hope all is well at your end. It's been a while since I've been able to visit/leave my thanks, but I come back to this?? Ouch! Only recently into Last Scandal, I loved that I could finally enjoy the male eye candy without any guilt - finally, a man of appropriate age who's entirely my taste. (Seriously, I wouldn't kick Eric Moon outta my bed, but it still would feel a little like cradle-robbing). But Jun Ho's engaged now, you say? *SIGH*

(Also, how did you ever get Earle Mack as sponsor? Cool...)

Jung Joon Ho looks younger for his age -- like one of the comments here when I saw Princess Lulu i wasn't really interested in him but when I saw Last Scandal, my perspective changed as he's such a great actor in this drama! He was very funny, to say the least very handsome indeed, and when the scene requires him to be sad he was very convincing! I really enjoyed this drama & glad that they're going to have Season 2. Now i want to watch his previous projects and I really become one of his huge fans since Last Scandal! If his wedding is forthcoming, good for him and all the best!

hm... i've read ppls other comments and some i agree and disagree. However the whole relationship being fast? a lot of times whats written might not exactly be true to the exact date. If they said begining of the year, well that could ahve been from what they know as begining right? BUT regardless, i think its great that hes found someone that he wants to settle down with and he did say he wanted to get hitched in 2008 or at least engaged. =P However, i wish them both luck and many blessings on their union.

@ #1 -- likewise, i didn't think much of JJH when i saw P Lulu but watching him in Last Scandal did it for me, i'm now one of his biggest fans! His acting ability proved him really great in this drama & I can't wait for the sequel. i've seen it twice & bought the dvd and i'm gonna watch & rewatch it when i have the time. Re his proposal - good for him & hope for the best JJH! Aja! you're one of the best K actors! sarang
