Actress Kim Jung Eun, who will be tying the knot with her fiance in March, was revealed to have met him after he divorced his former wife. 


Kim Jun Eun's meeting with this man has caused something of a controversy as divorce is still an extremely taboo topic in South Korea, and marrying someone who is divorced is regarded as an aberration in Korean society. 


Kim Jung Eun's agency release an official statement on February 18 to address the reports that have been coming out regarding the actress's marriage to the divorced man. The statement went, "[Kim Jung Eun and her fiance] decided to tie the knot at the end of 2015, having developed their budding love after the groom-to-be's divorce back in 2009, and they supported each other through their turbulent times."

The agency further related, "We find it regrettable that these one-sided reports are being released at the time of the two's happy beginning. We believe it's only right to respect the actress's marriage, which is a part of her private life."
