Actor An Jae-wook revealed his love story with musical actress and wife Choi Hyun-ju.
On the 15th, actor An Jae-wook appeared as a guest on the tvN Story variety program 'What's the Point of Leaving It?'.
That day, An Jae-wook said, "We got married in 2015, and it's been just over 10 years." He continued, "We started dating and got married in less than six months. In fact, our actual dating period was less than three months," adding, "I fell in love at first sight."
Regarding his love story with his wife, he explained, "One day, we happened to work on the same production and met by chance in the rehearsal room, and I fell in love at first sight. I thought, 'What is this?' and 'Why does she keep on my mind?'"

He then said, "I confessed that I could be surprised, but I liked her." His wife was flustered. "She was a senior colleague we were working with on a difficult production, and there was a nine-year age gap," he added. "I was the proactive one. We could have dated and broken up, but I couldn't bear the thought of her breaking up with me and dating someone else."
An Jae-wook also said, "I felt I couldn't let her slip away. I wanted to get permission from my parents and date comfortably, so I went to her home. I even received her parents' blessing for marriage during my first visit." This prompted Lee Young-ja to laugh loudly, saying, "I'll have to come visit you before I die."
He also revealed the behind-the-scenes story of having a late-born child at age 51. He said, "After having our first child, we struggled to have a second. We planned to try for about two years and then seek medical help, but it didn't work, so we decided to give up. I even played nurse with our first child to see if she would be surprised. It was something I shouldn't have done. We had given up, but a month and a half later, it happened naturally."
An Jae-wook said, "For our second child, I actually wished for a daughter. As an aging father, I thought it would be better if it were just my wife and daughter. But it turned out to be a son. There's nothing in this world that goes as I wish," which drew laughter from the audience.
Meanwhile, An Jae-wook married musical actress Choi Hyun-ju in 2015 and has one son and one daughter.
