Actor Jung Kyung-ho expressed his deep affection for Choi Soo-young, with whom he has been in a relationship for 12 years.

Jung Kyung-ho is currently in a relationship with Girls' Generation member and actress Choi Soo-young. The two were embroiled in dating rumors in February and October of 2013, and after photos of them dating were released in January 2014, they acknowledged their relationship and have been continuing their romance for 12 years.

12 years? Jung Kyung-ho and Choi Soo-young have continued their love without any notable controversy, while maintaining their lives in the entertainment industry. As a model couple representing the entertainment world and a long-lasting couple, their sweet moments are occasionally spotted on social media, stimulating the romantic cells of onlookers.

Having continued their relationship for over 10 years, and both being of marriageable age, interest in their "marriage" is also high. In this context, Choi Soo-young, in an interview after the finale of the Genie TV original drama "Nam Nam," stated, "He really liked 'Nam Nam' too. He took good care of it and was more concerned about the ratings than I was. Every morning, I would receive a text saying, 'What were the ratings today?' I don’t pay much attention to the results of what I have struggled and pondered over, but I am very grateful that there is someone who cares more than I do."

In particular, regarding marriage timing, she joked, "If there is good news, I will let you know first." Given their relationship has lasted over 10 years based on love and trust, the couple's marriage is being treated as a foregone conclusion.

Jung Kyung-ho, in an interview for the film 'Apgukjeong,' also remarked about Choi Soo-young, "It's been a long time, and over 10 years, we have created many memories and stories together. In fact, in a way, she is the only person I have talked to the most. I feel like I don’t talk to anyone else but her." Regarding the timing of marriage, he mentioned, "I guess we will consider it when the time comes. We are not specifically discussing it yet."

It has already been two years since they mentioned marriage. Now, Jung Kyung-ho and Choi Soo-young have been in a relationship for 12 years. In this context, Jung Kyung-ho has once again shown affection and trust for Choi Soo-young, drawing attention.

Recently, in an interview with a media outlet, Jung Kyung-ho responded to the question, "What can you point to as another pillar of your life aside from acting?" by saying, "It sounds so cliché, but the center of my life outside of acting is Choi Soo-young."

Moreover, Jung Kyung-ho reflected, "I sometimes think I am acting because of her. I want to look good to her and let her know that I am a good person, a good actor," and added, "What makes me happiest outside of acting is also Choi Soo-young's happiness. Since we have been together for a long time and see each other the most. Thanks to her patience, we have been able to stay together for so long. I always make mistakes. I don't do it anymore, but I used to drink a lot and get drunk."

In particular, Jung Kyung-ho emphasized the importance of having a partner with whom you have shared life for a long time, saying, "We've had the same dream of being good actors from early on, so I think that makes it even more significant."

Meanwhile, Jung Kyung-ho and Choi Soo-young are set to return to the small screen in May. Jung Kyung-ho will appear in the new MBC Friday-Saturday drama "Oh My Ghost Clients," while Choi Soo-young will be in the new tvN Friday-Saturday drama "Second Shot at Love."
