Oh Yoon Ah has remarried!

On July 3, Oh Yoon Ah’s agency YA Entertainment shared, “Oh Yoon Ah recently completed her marriage registration and is now living with her husband. They have not yet decided on details such as a wedding ceremony.”

Later that day, Oh Yoon Ah personally shared the news with fans through her YouTube channel. In the video, she revealed, “I’m getting married,” before opening up about the emotional journey that led to her decision.

She also spoke candidly about her son Min who has a developmental disability, and the heartfelt reasons behind choosing to remarry.

Having raised her son as a single mother for many years, Oh Yoon Ah shared, “For a long time, my son was always my top priority. I didn’t want that to become a burden for someone else. I had resigned myself to the idea that it would just be Min and me for the rest of our lives, but then I met someone truly wonderful.”

She went on to reveal that what ultimately changed her heart was the unconditional love her now-husband and his parents showed her son.

She explained, “Because my husband isn’t a public figure, I want to be careful about sharing too much. He embraced my son so naturally and accepted him in every way he could. He was incredibly thoughtful, and that’s how we naturally became a family.”

As she spoke about her in-laws, Oh Yoon Ah became visibly emotional. She shared, “My husband’s parents are such wonderful people. They welcomed Min as if he were their own grandson. That’s not something that comes easily, and it made me realize that something like this is only possible when it’s truly meant to be.”

The new drama Shadows of  Desire starring Daniel Zhou and Zhao Qing will feature reverse tropes. Yes, we do have a strong female lead who will be a Female General, which is now a standard trope for Chinese dramas. However, the male lead will be an Academic, who is a Civil Servant and not a Royal. His fight is not military, but against the legal system which suppresses the disenfranchised and poor. Daniel Zhou (as Zhang Hang  Jian) will be the soft element of this couple. Zhang Hang Jian is smart and tall of stature, who uses his intelligence as his weapon. Zhao Qing (as General Shen Qing Wu) has trained hard for her position and uses her military might to uphold justice. The two fight for the weak using different weapons. This makes an unusual pairing.
 
Along the way, Zhang Hang Jian will need to totally rely on General Shen Qing Wu for support as she becomes his strength and strong tower. Shadows of Desire is soon to be released.  

Lee Min Ho is in talks for a new K-drama.

On July 2, an industry insider revealed, "Lee Min Ho is expected to star in the new drama But Your Love (Virtual Love, working title)."

Responding to the report, his agency MYM Entertainment shared, "Lee Min Ho received an offer to star in the new drama But Your Love, and he is currently reviewing it."

He has reportedly been offered the lead role of Cha Wook Hyun, the chief director of a game company.

On the surface, Cha Wook Hyun appears to be the perfect man, but his cold, demanding personality makes him regarded as the worst boss at his company. Following a certain incident, he debuts as a member of a virtual idol group.

But Your Love follows an office worker who discovers that the virtual idol who has been her source of comfort through her exhausting, dry life is actually her boss.

Meanwhile, Lee is gearing up for the release of his upcoming film Assassin(s). Scheduled to premiere this September, Assassin(s) follows the investigation into the suspicions and masterminds behind the assassination attempt on South Korea's First Lady on August 15, 1974.

Blending historical records, unanswered questions, and cinematic imagination, the film is a mystery-investigation drama. It is reportedly the first film to dramatize this real-life case, exploring a true story that has never before been depicted on screen.

In the film, Lee Min Ho plays a rookie reporter covering the scene of the incident, leading the story alongside Yoo Hai Jinand Park Hae Il.

The production team of But Your Love is reportedly currently casting both lead and supporting roles and aims to begin filming within the year.
