TV Actress Song Ties Knot With 5-Year Younger Dentist

TV actress Song Hee-ah, 30, tied the knot with a 25-year-old Korean dentist in the United States in southern Seoul Sunday evening.

The bridegroom, identified only with the family name Shin, is a school junior of Ahn Sang-hoon, the husband of TV celebrity Suh Min-jung. The couple held the wedding ceremony at Billade Vailley Wedding Hall in Nonhyon-dong at 6:30 p.m.

They held an engagement ceremony last January after dating for several years.

“I think we met as best friends, a couple and family to each other. While loving each other, we hope to share this love with others,” Song said when she released a photo of her alongside her man in July. “My would-be husband respects me and has a special interest in my job and study as much as his job,” she said. “I plan to work at a Korean run broadcasting station, while living in the United States, after marriage. When requested to work in Korea, I will shuttle between the two countries.”

She also said that she plans to study further in counseling at a graduate school in the United States. “I think counseling is my second job after acting.”

Song won the bronze and special award in the Top Actors and Actresses Contest organized by SBS in 1997. She has appeared in movie “One Day” (2000) and soap opera “Condition of Queen” (2005) on SBS, as well as “Forgiveness” (2004) on KBS 2TV. She played Subin, sister of Chung Gyo-bin (Byon Woo-min), on the SBS hit soap opera “Temptation of Wife” (2008-09) in the first half of the year.
