Lee Young-ae
Lee Byung-hun
Following Andy Lau’s marriage revelation that also saw the secret marriages of Hong Kong singers Leon Lai and Miriam Yeung to their respective partners exposed, Taiwan star Ariel Lin and Korean actress Lee Young-ae are the latest stars rumoured to have wed.
Apple Daily reported that a marriage search website in Nevada uncovered Lin and Lee’s supposed marriages in 2001 and 2002 respectively. Another Korean celebrity, “GI Joe: The Rise of Cobra” star Lee Byung Hun, is also rumoured to have been married since 2002.
“Jewel in the Palace” star Lee Young-ae announced two weeks ago that she had married a Korean-American business man in the United States. However, a rumour started by a fan indicated that a person sharing the same name as the Korean star, had actually married a Pak Sin II since 2002.
It remains to be seen if these revelations are simply coincidences or the truth.
Also under scrutiny is Ariel Lin who supposedly got hitched to a Korean actor. A search of her name Lin I-chen on the website threw up a result indicating she has been married to a man named Chen Li Han since 2001.
The 27-year-old singer-actress arrived in Hong Kong last Saturday amid much fanfare and brushed off rumours of her marriage saying, “This news is laughable.”
“I don’t know,” replied Lin when asked if she was afraid that her fans might not be happy that she is married.
When probed further if she had any impending wedding plans, Lin simply smiled.
