Actor Jang Yong-won, Known as 'Yongwon-Gay', Marries Woman on the 27th

Actor Jang Yong-won (33), widely known for his character 'Yongwon-Gay', held a wedding ceremony with a non-celebrity at the JW Marriott Hotel in Banpo, Seoul, at noon on the 27th.

The couple married after dating for more than 3 years. The bride is known to have provided significant support to Jang Yong-won as he grew as an actor during his time as an unknown performer.

Actors and staff members who appeared alongside Jang Yong-won in the MBC drama 'In Your Brilliant Season', which ended this past April, attended the wedding. He played the role of Jeremy in this drama.

On the 26th, he left a message on his SNS, saying, "D-1, I am finally going tomorrow. Thank you to everyone who supported me. I will see you tomorrow looking wonderful."

Jang Yong-won, who made his debut in the 2019 tvN drama 'Pegasus Market', has received great love as 'Yongwon-Gay' after playing a character who suddenly becomes gay on the YouTube channel 'Unexpected Film' in 2024. He is so famous as 'Yongwon-Gay' that the nickname is more well-known than his real name. Due to this, many episodes occurred after the news of his marriage was announced.

Earlier this month, while appearing on the YouTube channels 'Imman Yeolmyeon' and 'Truman Show', he said, "Comments were being posted asking if it was a sham marriage. The article said 'Marrying a woman,' and people commented, 'Is his name Kim Woman because he is a man?' And then the next article came out titled 'Yongwon-Gay Marries Biological Woman.'"
