Hyori wears a couple ring

0716-wding-hyori6.jpg

Unless my eyes deceive me, Miss divalicious, Lee Hyori (28), is wearing a silver couple ring on the 4th finger of her left hand at Park Kyong-rim’s wedding last week! Hmm. What’s going on? Did I miss something completely? Only a few weeks ago, there were news stories about how she doesn’t want to hear news about her ex-boyfriends or that if she doesn’t have a boyfriend, she clings to her dogs.  So who is the lucky man?

Well, the new man is rumored to be Jung Il-woo (20)  of the hit sit-com, Unstoppable Highkick, who is 8 years her junior! You go girl! Nothing is hotter these days than having a hot and sexy younger man by your side.

Both stars are featured in Samsung Anycall’s DMB phone advertisements where they met on set. Supposedly, the flames of romance began when the 2 accidently switched phones. Ahh, love in the mobile phone age.

    wonder if its really Jung Il-woo ? hope she finds love soon =]

    Hmmm…are you sure…?
    There are loads of Kpop stars who wear rings on their ring finger…but they’re not ‘coupled up’ with anyone…

  4. 4 teabag July 23, 2007 at 10:23 am

    NO!!
    They just did a photo story
    I doubt that photo’s were taken separately, like they never met in the set. I’ve never seen its making or behind the scene that Hyori and Il Woo were working together

    koko- why would anyone want to wear a ring on their ring finger unless they have to?! And for stars, it would probably be better that they don’t so fans can continue fantisizing about them.

  6. 6 gl0rious July 23, 2007 at 10:38 am

    for some reason, i just can’t imagine it being jung il woo.

  7. 7 super grl July 23, 2007 at 10:57 am

    i think she realized that she is getting old and not famous anymore.she looks in her 30’s in this pic is she ?

  8. 8 cjlatina July 23, 2007 at 11:00 am

    i think she is dating one of the sg wannabe members because did she performed with them at one of their recent concerts. and didn’t one of the group members say he is dating now also.mmmmmm that seem more of an likely couple than her and jung il woo. he is too young for her and sg wannabe members are more of age i think. just my own guess i could be wrong.

  9. 9 ccccc July 23, 2007 at 11:09 am

    i think she is dating one of the sg wannabe members because didn’t one of them recently come out and say that he is dating.

  10. 10 MD July 23, 2007 at 11:13 am

    Hyori is a skank.

  11. 11 hahaha July 23, 2007 at 11:45 am

  13. 13 symphony July 23, 2007 at 12:12 pm

    hyori’s definately pretty .. one of the more prettier korean female artists. “natural”

  14. 14 bebetama July 23, 2007 at 12:12 pm

    Really? who’s the guy? never see him b4, I think she deserves better but if she’s HAPPY…CONGRATULATIONS^^

  15. 15 kiwee July 23, 2007 at 12:13 pm

    lucky girl.
    but probably not true.
    well, if it is, i would be sad.
    :,(

  16. 16 Em July 23, 2007 at 2:28 pm

    damn if she’s really with him, he’s so ack-ka-wuh~

  17. 17 monalisa July 23, 2007 at 2:59 pm

    With so many nice men her age around, why should she go rob the cradle? Anyway, I think it’s just a ploy to distract from her real beau.

  18. 18 Jackie July 23, 2007 at 3:18 pm

    OOO younger guys are so hott
    You go girl!! MMM

  19. 19 Narae July 23, 2007 at 4:21 pm

    You’re kidding right?! There is no way she can be with him…she looks so old on that picture and he’s way too innocent for her…lol

  20. 20 yana... July 23, 2007 at 5:26 pm

    well…if this is true then my sunbin still has a chance!!!hahaha..

  21. 21 sarah July 23, 2007 at 6:42 pm

    LOLS, I’m sorry but IlWoo and HyoRi? I like them both and an never imagine them together. A big no-no from me for the IlWoo/HyoRi couple. D:

  22. 22 lennie July 23, 2007 at 7:51 pm

    ^agree… i don’t know. i mean, i don’t know them personally, so i can’t say, but… eh…

  23. 23 jessica July 23, 2007 at 11:43 pm

    i’m gonna have to say a big NO. she’s old. and he’s barely reached puberty. not a huge fan of either but this is like the babysitter going after the kids. ewww.

  24. 24 the count July 23, 2007 at 11:54 pm

    jessica, that does happen. We don’t know what either of them wants from a relationship – they can talk about what they want all day long, but what they actually do doesn’t have to match the talk.

    I hope they’re not an item, but it isn’t impossible for that to be so.

  25. 25 lipzx July 24, 2007 at 12:39 am

    whoa…a couple ring already.. they sure move fast… he does look younger than her but all the power to her….

  26. 26 eunhyukX3jjang July 24, 2007 at 1:02 am

    this was still when they were shooting highkick rite? because i saw the special ending of highkick, and jung il woo wasn’t wearing a rind. one either of his hands. and they usually let actors wear what they want in a sitcom. cause they don’t change, they just let them act in whatever clothes they came in.

  27. 27 jane =] July 24, 2007 at 1:05 am

    well, good luck to them if they actually are dating. if this rumor was out like you said, hyori is going to get a lot of criticisms from netizens.

  28. 28 eunhyukX3jjang July 24, 2007 at 1:06 am

    i also agree it’s a no. jung il woo is too much of a waste of cuteness to be with hyori. and can’t hyori date men her own age?? but i don’t think that they’re dating, cause jung il woo doesn’t have a ring.

  29. 29 MJ July 24, 2007 at 1:12 am

    Hey! Don’t make up rumors like this! Jung Ilwoo and Hyori?? I’ve never ever heard of this rumor.. If it’s true, there would be tons of articles and speculations about their relationship all over the internet in Korea now.. but as far as i’ve known, nothing!! nothing at all!!

    you’re just making up stories to get ppls attention..

  30. 30 FeetManSeoul July 24, 2007 at 2:47 am

    I don’t know…

    I’d be more concerned about the fact that the ribbon on her purse is bigger than the bag itself…

    ㅋㅋㅋ

  31. 31 sallyen July 24, 2007 at 6:04 am

    She looks a bit puffy.

    (Who is this guy? He looks really cute =] dididi:P)

  32. 32 Lily July 24, 2007 at 2:39 pm

    hmmm…seems weird dating a guy that’s 7 years younger than yourself…it’s too far of a gap, but hey, whatever rocks her boat.

  33. 33 awer July 24, 2007 at 3:23 pm

    EKHHH… SO SHE ALREADY BROKE UP WITH DANIEL HANNEY??
    WHENNNNNN THEY BROKE UP…..?????

  34. 34 caprisun July 25, 2007 at 1:03 pm

    Random comment but… am I the only one who is not impressed with Hyori’s looks? :P Granted, she looks beautiful in her photoshoots, but whenever I see candids of her, she doesn’t look to be anything special.

  35. 35 beckon July 25, 2007 at 7:08 pm

    oh, oh, oh, she and henney are an item? but she can really change boyfriends all too quickly and then cool off too quickly. there were plenty of rumors before between her and other actors around. is it a matter of testing or tasting? now, a new boyfriend again? yea, she’s really peculiar, one of her kind. save her soul.

  36. 36 the count July 25, 2007 at 8:34 pm

    caprisun, Hyori does indeed often look like the proverbial girl-next-door. There can still be something quite charming about that…

    I never quite understood why folks went so nuts over Cindy Crawford for example, she always looked so ordinary to me. Perhaps something of the same thing with Hyori, eh?

  37. 37 Roose July 26, 2007 at 10:19 am

    dang, he is so fine. if this is true, good luck to hyori. she’ll have a picnic dealing with all the crap from jung-il woo’s fans and her anti’s.

  38. 38 jung il woo fan!!!! July 30, 2007 at 3:13 am

    omg nooooooooooooooo!!!! this is soooooooo not true they’re 8 years apart and il woos too good for hyori!!!!! :(

  39. 39 highkick fan!!!! July 30, 2007 at 3:16 am

    ok so im the same person as the ( jung il woo fan) so anyways i dont think this is true cuz shes way to old for il woo but shes pretty!!!! :)

  40. 40 highkick fan!!! July 30, 2007 at 3:19 am

    ok sooo im the same person as the ( jung il woo fan) but i think hyori should get guy other than hyori!!!! seriously 8 years apart… and shes older!!!!!

  41. 41 bebe July 30, 2007 at 11:29 am

    uhh i really doubt that she’s dating him.
    they don’tlook good together..
    and im not really sure if hyori would go for him.

    i mean ilwoo’s totally hot.
    but 8 years apart is a lot..
    and shes korea’s britney spears.
    so i dont know..

  42. 42 Sei August 3, 2007 at 9:10 am

    When Hyori dyes her hair she should do the same with her brows to make’um make cuz in that photo they’re too pale and make her look kind of oldish

  43. 43 kara August 9, 2007 at 1:01 pm

    Korean reporters really know how to make a great story…
    and the proof! Amazing. *Sarcasm*

    Next thing you know, there’s a scandal between Hyori and a three year old child star because they’ve been spotted wearing the same color shoes.

  44. 44 sunny August 20, 2007 at 5:52 pm

    I wish she would get married soon. She’s getting old.

  45. 45 Jung Il Woo Luva August 22, 2007 at 2:31 pm

    I dont think this is true… because i think it’s a fake…
    as in they’ve only met like for the cell thing…
    it could be a regular ring… not a couple ring…

  46. 46 jungilwooSoulmate August 25, 2007 at 12:09 pm

    hey,hyori!!! bak off from my man! ilwoo oppa is mine. and if actors can wear anything they want on a sitcom, then choi minyong (another hottie of mine) has awesome dress sense! shinji is an awesome dresser and matches outfits so well! and ilwoo oppa is an awesome preppy dresser who makes me smile and want him even more!!!

    I LOVE U ILWOO!!!!!! ^^ UR MY MAN!!!! :) :)

    BACK OFF HYORI! AND GO ARA!!! lol…

  47. 47 oluchi March 10, 2008 at 5:50 pm
