Veteran actor Kim Yong-gun, 80, is enjoying a renewed chapter of fatherhood with his youngest son, age six, while simultaneously navigating the blossoming romance of his eldest son, actor Ha Jung-woo, 48, with actress Cha Jung-won, 37.

The news has sparked interest in the “star family” and the possibility of another celebrity wedding. There has even been discussion of potential marriage plans for Ha Jung-woo and Cha Jung-won, with Kim Yong-gun hinting at wedding talk. “Ha Jung-woo likes babies… it seems like there’s talk of marriage with Cha Jung-won,” he reportedly said.
Sources close to the couple suggest Ha Jung-woo was the one who initiated the relationship. “Cha Jung-won and Hwang Bo-ra have known each other for a long time and see each other often… it seems like Ha Jung-woo made the first move,” one insider revealed.
The developments add another layer to the already vibrant landscape of Korean entertainment, where celebrity relationships often capture public attention.
