They both met for the first time in 2006 after being introduced through an acquaintance. Then, they confirmed their relationship and briefly dated. They resumed their relationship again in 2012. Finally, in 2013, they became married on August 10, 2013, at Grand Hyatt Seoul with about 900 guests and 100 reporters in attendance. The wedding was hosted by actor Lee Bum Soo and comedian Shin Dong Yeop. Singer Lena Park and hip-hop group Dynamic Duo were the wedding singers. The couple’s 12-year age gap didn’t become an obstacle in their relationship. At the press conference before the ceremony, the couple was asked by journalists about their plan for children. Lee Byung Hun answered that they haven’t talked about a number but he’d feel grateful for anything. Rumors said that Lee Min Jung was already pregnant, but both sides denied this. In January 2015, Lee Min Jung was reported pregnant. When the news was released, Lee Min Jung was 27 weeks pregnant. Her agency was cautious to confirm her pregnancy because of Lee Byung Hun’s legal battle against two girls that were charged with blackmail. In the press release, Lee Min Jung shared her thoughts. “I had a lot of worries, but I will do my best to keep my family,” said Lee Min Jung. 3 months later, Lee Min Jung gave birth to a son on March 31, 2015, at a hospital in Seoul. Both agencies confirmed this news and said that the baby and the mother were healthy. The baby is named Lee Joon Ho. Since then, Lee Min Jung strictly keeps her baby’s identity from the news to keep his privacy. Lee Min Jung’s posts on Instagram mostly show the child’s back or side. But, some photos were exposed on an online community. At their baby’s 1st birthday, the ceremony photos were released to the media. The baby’s photos were blurred. The couple held the birthday ceremony at the Sky Farm restaurant in Yeouido, Seoul. The first picture showed the baby’s ceremony to pick an object that predicts something about his future. The second picture showed Lee Min Jung and Lee Byung Hun holding their baby. They both looked good wearing a suit and dress. Many artists were invited to the ceremony, including actress Son Ye Jin and actor Song Seung Hoon. Recently, the couple and their baby were attending an event held by a temple. Then, pictures of their baby were posted to an online community with the title “Lee Byung Hun and Lee Min Jung’s Son’s Appearances.” They were pictured holding hands together with their baby in the middle. As you can see, their baby has distinctive characteristics from Lee Min Jung and Lee Byung Hun. This is the first time the kid’s face was revealed to the public. After this photo was posted, many netizens showed their amazement to see Lee Byung Hun’s resemblance to their baby. Seems like he’s going to grow up as a handsome guy and maybe follow his parents’ steps in the entertainment industry!
