Kim Bo-ra, Jang Na-ra, and Jeon Jong-seo "I also had a love affair with the director on set."

Another actress-director couple was born. The main characters are Bo-ra Kim and Director Ba-reun Jo, who announced the news of their marriage. They are truly talented people who are greedy and have love at a time when others have a hard time working. In addition to Kim Bo-ra, Moon So-ri is married to the director, and Jeon Jong-seo is in a relationship with the director. Jang Na-ra and cinematographer became married.

On the 5th, Kim Bora's agency Noon Company announced, "Kim Bora will get married in June." The groom-to-be is a director Jo Ba-Reun. The two met through the movie ‘Ghost Mansion’, which was released in 2021. This work was also aired as ENA ENA's 'Ghost Mansion: The Original'.

Kim Bora's agency also revealed that the two had been dating for three years, saying, "After three years of meeting based on faith and trust, the two have come to see the beautiful result of a 100-year marriage." The wedding will be held privately with only relatives and acquaintances of both families attending.

There is another actress-director couple who 'came into contact' while filming. Jeon Jong-seo and director Lee Chung-hyeon met through the movie 'Call' and became lovers.

Jeon Jong-seo and director Lee Chung-hyun have been in a public relationship since 2021. In addition to 'Call', the two also worked together on 'Ballerina'. Jeon Jong-seo also appeared in the TV series 'Ransom', which was based on a short story by director Lee Chung-hyun. Director Lee Chung-hyeon served as the chief resident and stayed by Jeon Jong-seo's side during his father's funeral in February last year.

The two acknowledged their relationship immediately after the news of their romance was reported, and have clearly revealed their affection for each other on various broadcasts and interviews. In October last year, Jeon Jong-seo said about director Lee Chung-hyun on the YouTube entertainment show 'Salon Drip 2', "He is a person with a lot of talent. The level of his screenwriting is also high." He added, "We did 'Call' together, and even as the years go by, I am curious about his next work." “He’s handsome,” he said, expressing his affection both as a director and as a lover.

Regarding the reason for casting Jeon Jong-seo in 'Ballerina', Lee Chung-hyeon said, "After doing 'Call', I thought I wanted to work with Jeon Jong-seo. During the filming of 'Call', I intuitively felt the noir in the scene where she smokes in the 'vinyl house'. “I thought it would be nice to try a genre. I think those things have continued to this point,” he said.

Jang Nara and cinematographer became a couple. In June 2022, Jang Na-ra married a cinematographer who is six years younger than her, with whom she had been dating for two years. It is known that the two met through the drama 'VIP'.

Jang Nara also boasted about her happy newlywed life through tvN's 'You Quiz on the Bollocks'. He said, "I like it. It's fun. My husband and I have similar personalities and we joke around a lot. When I go home, I feel like I have a best friend. But it's cool. I talk to my husband all the time, and he helps me stay more composed when I lose confidence or feel anxious. “He helps me out a lot by playing around with me.” Regarding the groom, he expressed his affection, saying, "He looks a little better in person. He looks like a handsome baby donkey."

Moon So-ri and director Jang Jun-hwan are the original actress-director couple. The two met at a dinner party at the Jeonju International Film Festival in the past, and it is said that each of them had a lover at the time. Afterwards, they reunited at the filming of singer Jeong Jae-il's 'Tear Flower' music video. It is said that Moon So-ri said she did not want to meet movie officials, but the two became connected thanks to director Jang Jun-hwan's active courtship.

Moon So-ri said, "Later, I found out that director Jang Jun-hwan had been keeping me in his heart for a long time. He said he broke up with his girlfriend because of me," and "I emailed him and said, 'I don't feel that way yet. Don't you know that there is no normal among actresses?' He replied, ‘Think about it.’” However, Director Jang Jun-hwan is said to have replied, “You know that even directors are not normal.”

Clever actresses and directors who even found partners in the same industry as they worked. The public also cheers for their sweet appearance.
