Remember the 2010 film The Truth About Kim Bok-nam’s Murder? Seo Young-hee\u2019s chilling performance in that movie earned her an astonishing sweep of Best Actress awards\u201412 trophies in total. At the peak of her career and after making a lasting impression on Korean cinema, she surprised fans in 2011 with an unexpected marriage announcement.<\/p>\n

Today we look back at Seo Young-hee\u2019s love story\u2014marked by the same candor she brings to her roles\u2014and catch up on what she\u2019s been doing recently.<\/p>\n

Was the secret to the lightning-fast wedding an empty venue?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Seo Young-hee married just six months after she began dating her husband, a peer who worked for a foreign firm. While celebrity weddings often follow lengthy courtships, hers moved with unusual speed.<\/p>\n

There\u2019s a lighthearted behind-the-scenes reason for the rush. Seo had long wanted to be a May bride, and when she learned a venue had an open May date, she booked it without hesitation. That serendipitous availability effectively accelerated their wedding plans.<\/p>\n

Fed up, she made the first move \u2014 a decisively direct romantic<\/strong><\/p>\n

Though Seo often projects a gentle, innocent public persona, she pursued romance with surprising assertiveness. On the variety show My Ugly Duckling, she recounted the story of her first intimate moment with her husband, which drew a lot of attention.<\/p>\n

Early in their relationship, she grew frustrated with his hesitancy around physical affection and decided to act. After a date, as he lingered with the car door open, she walked over and kissed him first.<\/p>\n

That frank, confident charm seems to have helped shape the warm family she enjoys today. Seo is now the mother of two daughters, born in 2016 and 2020.<\/p>\n

The horror queen returns in the film Gwisi (\u9b3c\u8a69)<\/strong><\/p>\n

Following her marriage, Seo Young-hee continued to work steadily. Last year she returned to her signature territory\u2014horror and thriller\u2014with the film Gwisi (\u9b3c\u8a69), often translated as Ghost Poem.<\/p>\n

With that role, she reminded audiences that she still commands the screen as Korea\u2019s original horror queen.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
