Actor Koo Kyo Hwan and director Lee Ok Seop have belatedly revealed that they officially registered their marriage in 2022, becoming legal spouses. The couple, who started dating in 2013, had been known as a long-standing couple in the film industry, but chose to tie the knot without a separate wedding ceremony. Their agency stated that they are each other's closest colleagues and family.
Koo Kyo Hwan and Lee Ok Seop, alumni of Seoul Institute of the Arts, developed their romantic relationship while working on the short film '4th Grade Bokeongi' in 2013. Since then, they have collaborated as creative partners on numerous feature and short films, including 'Today's Film' and 'Maggie'. After confirming their relationship in 2020, they kept their marriage registration private and co-lead the creative collective '2X9HD'.
Bloggers have reacted positively to the couple's decision to maintain their relationship in their own unique way, free from conventional formalities. They particularly highlighted Koo Kyo Hwan and Lee Ok Seop's long-standing collaboration in both their personal lives and film projects, praising their supportive and strong partnership.
