Actor Lee Kwang-ki’s daughter, Yeon-ji, is getting married to soccer player Jung Woo-young.
Lee Kwang-ki noted in a call with OSEN, “It’s true that my daughter is marrying player Jung Woo-young this coming June.”
According to Lee Kwang-ki, his daughter and Jung Woo-young met at a gathering of acquaintances, developed into a relationship, and after about a year of dating, they are now getting married.
Known as a representative ‘daddy’s girl’ in the entertainment industry, Lee Kwang-ki said, “As a parent with a daughter, I did hope she would marry a bit later, but upon seeing (Jung Woo-young), he is diligent and listens well to our daughter. I felt glad by seeing his considerate side,” adding, “I have always liked Jung Woo-young, and as a son-in-law, I think, God has given us a gift like a son.”
In particular, Lee Kwang-ki shared, “I asked my daughter if it’s easy to support an athlete, and she said she could do it at the time. That’s how much I believe in my daughter. She resembles her mother; she cooks well, manages the household well, is quick with her hands, and is capable.”
Earlier, soccer journalist Seo Ho-jung revealed through a YouTube channel that Lee Kwang-ki’s daughter and Jung Woo-young are getting married this coming June. Born in 1999, Jung Woo-young is currently active in the German Bundesliga with FC Union Berlin. To distinguish him from another soccer player of the same name, fans refer to him as “Jak Woo-young.”
Lee Yeon-ji is the daughter of Lee Kwang-ki and is the same age as Jung Woo-young. She drew attention by appearing on a variety show with her father.
