Over the course of several years, Hyun Bin and Son Ye-jin’s relationship developed from that of business associates to that of life partners. They first worked together in the 2018 movie The Negotiation, in which they played enemies interacting via monitors. Although they first met on this production, their relationship really blossomed while they were filming the popular drama Crash Landing on You in 2019 and 2020. The couple first rejected dating rumours, but their on-screen connection enthralled viewers all around the world.
After Crash Landing on You ended, Hyun Bin and Son Ye-jin reportedly started dating in March 2020. They remained secretive about their connection until January 1, 2021, when Dispatch’s revelation prompted their agencies to confirm it.
In February 2022, the pair shared their happiness and thankfulness on social media to announce their engagement. In front of family and close friends, they exchanged vows in a private ceremony on March 31, 2022.
In June 2022, Son Ye-jin announced her pregnancy, and the couple welcomed their son, affectionately nicknamed Alkong, on November 27, 2022.
Their journey from co-stars to a married couple with a child has been celebrated by fans worldwide, symbolizing a real-life fairy tale.
