SEOUL, December 13 (AJP) - Korean-American singer-actress Tiffany Young may become the first member of 18-year-old K-pop girl group, to get married after actor Byun Yo-han confirmed the two were dating with marriage in mind.
Byun’s agency, Team Hope, said Monday that “the two actors are currently dating with marriage in mind.” While no wedding date has been finalized, the agency added that the couple wishes to share the news with fans first once plans are decided.
“We ask for your warm support and blessings for their future together,” the agency said.
The confirmation follows earlier media reports suggesting the couple may be planning a wedding as early as next year. Team Hope clarified that there is no fixed schedule at this stage.
The two are believed to have grown close while working together on Disney+’s Korean original series Uncle Samsik, which was released last year. Their professional collaboration reportedly developed into a private romantic relationship.
Byun, born in 1986, made his acting debut in 2011 and has since established himself as one of Korea’s most respected character actors. His notable works include the hit drama Misaeng (2014), the historical series Mr. Sunshine (2018), and films such as The Book of Fish (2021), Voice (2021), and Hansan: Rising Dragon.
Tiffany Young, born in 1989, debuted in 2007 as a member of Girls’ Generation, one of K-pop’s most influential girl groups.
After ending her contract with SM Entertainment in 2017, she expanded her career into acting, appearing in dramas such as Reborn Rich (2022) and Uncle Samsik (2024), while also earning acclaim in musical theater, including her role in Chicago.
If the marriage goes ahead, Tiffany would become the first member of Girls’ Generation to marry, marking a significant milestone for the group, which has had no married members throughout its 18-year history.
