According to Starin, Lee Byung Hun left for LA on the 6th for a business trip with Lee Min Jung in accompaniment. The latter finished her advertisement filming schedule in Korea, and used her free time to go overseas with her husband. 

Regarding this, the actor's agency confirmed, "Lee Byung Hun has left for LA. Because it's the end of the year, there are a lot of schedules related to his movie. It seems he'll be going back and forth between Korean and the States until early next year... It's hard to confirm whether he departed at the same time as his wife, but it is confirmed that the two are both in the States."

The actress's agency also said, "Lee Min Jung finished up her domestic advertisement activities and left for the States... It seems to us that she'll be staying overseas with Lee Byung Hun for the time being."

In related news, another hearing for the ongoing blackmail case will also be held on the 16th.
