How long until Gong Hyo-jin marries Kevin Oh?
As rumors are now floating around claiming that both celebrities have announced their wedding, the labels of both Gong Hyo-jin and Kevin Oh have confirmed that the couple has not planned a wedding so far. Fans however have a different theory in mind and it is the most plausible answer to the question about the couple’s impending wedding. While the Christian tradition of catching the bridal bouquet has different implications across cultures. According to American tradition, unmarried women line up behind the bride to catch the bouquet, and anyone that catches it will be the next woman to be married, Korean culture interprets this tradition differently.
On the other hand, as Korean culture goes, any woman that catches the bridal bouquet must get married within the next year. If she fails to do so, it is claimed that she will not be able to marry for the 10 years that follow. Being in the 21st century, not many believe in such superstitions and ill-omens, but as fans of Korean culture are aware, Korean celebrities do follow their traditions with reverence. Thus, this is all the more reason to believe that actress Gong Hyo-jin would soon announce her wedding to singer Kevin Oh.
Gong Hyo-jin and Kevin Oh
While Gong Hyo-jin made her acting debut with the 1999 movie ‘Memento Mori’, she has now established herself as an A-list actress in South Korea with her sympathetic acting and steady projects.

Some of her famous acting projects are ‘Thank You’, ‘Pasta’, ‘The Greatest Love’, ‘Master’s Sun’, and ‘When the Camellia Blooms’ among many others.
On the other hand, US-born singer Kevin Oh made his name and face known when he won Mnet’s ‘Superstar K7’ back in 2015.
