Actor Park Young-woon, who has starred in 'The King Loves' and 'The Third Marriage', has tied the knot without any dating rumors. With his marriage, he has also embraced the honor of receiving awards, starting a happy second chapter of his life.

Born in 1990, Park Young-woon debuted in 2010 with the film 'Gwi'. He gained acclaim for his role as Mu-seok in the 2017 MBC drama 'The King Loves', a character who does not hesitate to commit murder for his beliefs, but also shows a warm human side while having feelings for Bi-yeon (Park Ji-hyeon) and received praise for portraying the character's complexity.

He has been active in dramas such as 'Bad Girl Friend', 'Please Send a Fan Letter', 'The Strange Director Who Only Treats Me to Meals', 'Agency', 'The Fabulous', 'The Third Marriage', 'Branding in Seongsu-dong', and 'The Most Painful Kiss in the World', as well as in films like 'The Killer: A Child That Can Die' and 'The Strange Director Who Only Treats Me to Meals: The Movie'.

Especially in the MBC daily drama 'The Third Marriage', which aired last year, he played the role of Ji-hoon, the youngest son of the chairman of Dream Foods, leaving a lasting impression on viewers. Thanks to Park Young-woon's performance, 'The Third Marriage' achieved a peak rating of 7.8% (based on Nielsen Korea's nationwide figures), garnering great popularity.

Having made a mark as an actor through numerous works, Park Young-woon has opened the second chapter of his life as an actor, husband, and head of a family by meeting his bride. According to OSEN's coverage on the 29th, Park Young-woon married his same-age bride on the 18th at a private location in Seoul.

Park Young-woon's bride has been identified as a non-celebrity. The wedding was held privately, inviting only family, relatives, and close acquaintances to accommodate the non-celebrity bride. Close colleagues from the entertainment industry attended to congratulate and bless the couple's rosy future.

Thus, Park Young-woon joins the list of stars who have married without dating rumors. Previously, Kim Dong-wook, Jo Bo-ah, Nam Bo-ra, Choi Yoon-ra, Kang Gil-woo, Lee Jae-jun, and Kim Jae-gyeong announced their marriages directly without dating rumors, receiving much congratulations.

Along with his marriage, good news was also shared. He received the Best Actor award at the newly established '1st Asia Short-Form Drama Awards (Asia Short-Form Drama Awards, hereafter ASDA)', created this year to keep pace with the growth of the global short-form content market.

The ASDA is an event that highlights short-form content and actors that have recorded high quality and popularity across Asia, and Park Young-woon played the role of Han Jae-yoon in the award-winning work 'The Most Painful Kiss in the World', receiving praise for his 'more intense acting because of the short form' while delivering deep emotions in a short duration. 'The Most Painful Kiss in the World' is a short drama that depicts the journey of a wounded protagonist in search of true love and destiny.

Park Young-woon expressed gratitude, saying, "Working to condense emotions into a short running time was a new challenge for the actor. I'm grateful that the effort seems to have been conveyed, and it's meaningful to be able to showcase the diversity and potential of the short-form genre."
