The film ‘Harbin’, helmed by director Woo Min-ho, made its global debut at the 49th Toronto International Film Festival on September 8. Hyun Bin and Lee Dong-wook joined director Woo on the red carpet, sharing warm interactions with fans and basking in the event’s glamour.
During a red carpet interview, Hyun Bin was asked about the role his wife, Son Ye-jin, plays in his life.With a heartfelt smile, he expressed his gratitude, saying, “Her understanding and support mean a lot to me, and I’m very grateful. She supports me in every aspect”, as reported by Kbizoom. This candid moment further endeared the couple to the public, highlighting the deep affection that continues to characterize their two-year marriage.
Son Ye-jin had previously shared insights into their relationship during her appearance at the 2024 Bucheon International Fantastic Film Festival (BIFAN). When an audience member inquired about their decision to spend their lives together, “You’ve worked together on two projects, so I wonder when and at what point you both felt like you wanted to spend your lives together?” Son Ye-jin responded with a thoughtful smile, “That’s an interesting question!”
Reflecting on their connection, she revealed, “Actors meet a lot of co-stars while working on various projects. Many of them date or even get married, but personally, I did not like that aspect. It was fate when we realized that people kept saying we looked alike. I never thought I looked like him, but everyone around us kept saying we did. So, I looked at him more closely and started thinking, ‘Do we really share the same feelings?’ We worked together on two projects, but I truly fell in love with Hyun Bin’s real-life personality”.
Son Ye-jin continued, “Compared to people in the past, he is very kind and rational, almost like a scholar. He’s not someone who hides his discomfort and presents himself in a positive light, but he’s genuinely very straightforward and simple. And he’s handsome too”. Her affectionate comments were met with laughter and applause, as she further added that, “Above all, Hyun Bin is very trustworthy. That’s the main reason”.
Since their marriage, both stars have enjoyed a flourishing career, landing numerous advertising deals, film roles, and event appearances. Son Ye-jin has intentionally scaled back her professional commitments, choosing to focus more on family life. In a late 2023 interview, she shared her intention to prioritize her role as a mother, stating, “Since I am married and have a child, my time for films will definitely be limited”.
Embracing her role as a homemaker, Son Ye-jin often shares glimpses of her life with Hyun Bin on social media, showcasing their domestic moments, from cooking to home chores. Proudly declaring Hyun Bin as her first love, Son Ye-jin reflects on how their marriage has enriched her life, revealing a deep-seated joy and satisfaction in their shared journey.
