South Korean Actor Lee Jang-woo Reveals Family Plans Ahead of November Wedding

South Korean actor Lee Jang-woo, who is set to marry actress Jo Hye-won this November, has shared his plans for starting a family.

On the October 21st episode of MBC's variety show 'Rural Village Lee Jang-woo 2', Lee was seen harvesting turnips alongside world-renowned choreographer Kani. Kani, who has performed with the likes of Beyoncé and Michael Jackson, is currently based in South Korea, where she works as a choreographer for artists like GFriend and VIVIZ.

The duo exuded full energy as they harvested turnips and gifted them to the village elders. When the elders inquired about Kani's marriage story, she shared with a smile, "I met my husband through an online app. The moment I saw him, I thought, 'He's the one.'"

Lee Jang-woo then revealed, "I'm getting married on November 23rd," to which Kani responded with congratulations and requested an invitation. She also mentioned her grandmother was a shaman and offered to read tarot cards for Lee.

When Lee asked, "How many children will I have?", Kani predicted, "You have good fortune for family. You'll have more than one child." Lee expressed his desire for a large family, saying, "I want to have many children. My dream is to have five. My parents always said, 'Children are wealth.' I believe a bustling home is happier than having money."

In a previous broadcast, Lee revealed that he had postponed his wedding by a year. "I was supposed to get married last year, but I wanted to continue with 'I Live Alone' after forming the 'Palm Oil' group. It felt like I finally found my life," he explained. "The thought of not being able to do it after marriage was tough, so I asked my future mother-in-law if we could delay it by just one year."
