Lee Joon-gi and Moon Chae-won Tie the Knot in Private Ceremony: A K-Drama Couple’s Real-Life Romance

K-drama royalty Lee Joon-gi and Moon Chae-won have tied the knot in a private wedding ceremony, confirming years of dating rumors and sending fans across the globe into celebration mode.

The stars, best known for their gripping chemistry in the hit 2020 drama “Flower of Evil,” reportedly exchanged vows in an intimate ceremony attended only by close family, longtime friends, and a few industry colleagues. The event was kept under wraps to respect the couple’s wish for a peaceful, private union.

Fans of “Flower of Evil” were captivated by the deep emotional bond portrayed between Lee Joon-gi’s mysterious Baek Hee-sung and Moon Chae-won’s detective Cha Ji-won. Viewers couldn’t help but notice the genuine spark between the two actors both onscreen and off.

Rumors of a relationship between the two first began circulating during and after the show’s promotional period. Their frequent offscreen interactions, behind-the-scenes moments, and mutual admiration only fueled speculation.

Despite keeping their romance low-key, industry insiders had long hinted that the two were indeed a couple — and now, with their marriage, those whispers have turned into joyous cheers.

According to reports from insiders, the wedding ceremony was held in Seoul, at a private venue known for hosting high-profile events with maximum discretion. The couple opted for a modern yet traditional Korean aesthetic, incorporating classic hanbok-inspired elements with contemporary floral arrangements.

Moon Chae-won was said to look stunning in a custom-designed ivory gown, while Lee Joon-gi wore a sleek, minimalistic suit that highlighted his timeless charm.

Guests included fellow actors they had worked with over the years, such as Ji Sung, IU, Shin Se-kyung, Park Min-young, and Namgoong Min. The event was described as emotionally touching and beautifully intimate, with handwritten vows exchanged and a performance by a close musical friend of the couple.

As of now, no official wedding photos have been released by the agencies. However, leaked images suggest the couple shared a soft, warm outdoor ceremony, with photos taken against a lush backdrop of cherry blossoms — a favorite of Moon Chae-won, known for her poetic tastes.

Fans are eagerly waiting for the agencies to drop the official wedding pictorial, with many praising the couple for maintaining privacy and grace amid public curiosity.

Social media exploded with messages from fans who had rooted for the couple since their “Flower of Evil” days:

“Their love story was so real even in fiction. Now it’s official in real life too. I’m crying!”
“From Cha Ji-won and Baek Hee-sung to Mr. and Mrs. Lee – what a journey!”
“Moon Chae-won and Lee Joon-gi are the fairytale we all needed.”

With their marriage confirmed, fans are already dreaming about a possible romantic reunion project. While both actors are known for their dedication to challenging roles, many hope that one day the couple might grace the screen again — this time as a real-life married pair.

Moon Chae-won’s last drama appearance was in 2023’s “To My Beloved Enemy,” while Lee Joon-gi wrapped up the thriller “Again My Life” around the same time. It is expected they will take a brief hiatus post-wedding before returning to their acting careers.

Their respective agencies, Namoo Actors (Lee Joon-gi) and YooBorn Company (Moon Chae-won), released a joint statement:

“We are pleased to confirm that our artists, Lee Joon-gi and Moon Chae-won, have recently held a private wedding ceremony. They ask for your warm blessings as they begin this new journey together. Thank you for your continued love and support.”

Lee Joon-gi and Moon Chae-won’s real-life wedding feels like the perfect K-drama ending — and yet, it’s only the beginning of their shared story. Fans across the globe wish the couple joy, health, and continued success as they embark on this new chapter.
