Spica's Yang Ji-won and Yang Jun-mo marry amid pregnancy, divorce news

Actress Yang Ji-won, a former member of Spica, and musical actor Yang Jun-mo have tied the knot. While their personal histories—including Yang's pregnancy and Yang Jun-mo's past divorce—were revealed simultaneously around the time of the wedding, the ceremony itself was filled with warmth, characterized by congratulations from long-time colleagues and deep consideration for family.

The couple held their wedding ceremony on the 31st at the Laum Art Center in Yeoksam-dong, Gangnam-gu, Seoul. Family and acquaintances attended the ceremony to bless their new beginning.

In particular, Kim Boa, Kim Bo Hyung, and Narae—members of Spica, the group Yang once belonged to—added meaning to the event by performing congratulatory songs. Yang also took to the stage to sing with her former members, turning the wedding into something akin to a performance. Yang Jun-mo also completed the special moment by personally preparing and presenting a congratulatory song to his bride.

Prior to the wedding, Yang personally shared the news of her pregnancy and marriage on the 24th. She explained that while they had originally planned to marry early next year, they moved the schedule forward due to the new life that arrived earlier than expected.

“Next year, at forty, I will become a mother,” Yang stated, adding, “So we are holding the ceremony a little earlier.” Regarding her husband, she described him as someone who possesses both differences and similarities to her, and a person who allows her to see aspects of herself she had not previously noticed. She appeared to view marriage not merely as a union of two people, but as a process of growing together step by step.

Along with wedding pictorials, it was revealed that Yang's spouse is musical actor Yang Jun-mo. In the process of announcing the marriage, Yang Jun-mo also officially disclosed his past divorce for the first time.

Yang Jun-mo revealed that after long deliberation, he ended his previous marriage in 2023 and went his separate way with his former spouse. He cited consideration for his young daughter as the reason for the delayed disclosure of his divorce. He hoped that unnecessary public attention and scrutiny would not cause pain to his child.

He explained that as time passed, they have each been building new lives in their respective places, and his child is also doing well and growing healthily amidst love. Rather than publicly explaining or defending his past marriage, his choice aligned with how celebrities manage the disclosure of family matters, prioritizing his child's stability and privacy.

Yang Jun-mo stated that he met his current spouse while rebuilding his life after passing through those difficult times. He expressed anticipation and affection for their future, saying he intends to start a new life as a family with the person who "helped him find his smile again."

Yang also delivered a message that placed more weight on the present and future rather than the past. Their relationship holds special meaning in that it goes beyond a simple institutional union of marriage, representing a process of forming a new family after each has experienced a major life change.

Yang debuted as a member of Spica in 2012. At the time, Spica drew significant attention and was referred to as "Lee Hyo-ri's girl group" as Lee Hyo-ri participated in their production, and the group sought to differentiate itself with outstanding vocal abilities and unique music. Following her group activities, Yang expanded her field into acting, building her career through appearances in works such as "Divorce Attorney, Yoo Hee-jeong," "Witch's Game," and "Family.""

Yang Jun-mo established his position in the musical industry after debuting on stage in 2004 with the opera "Kumgang." He has expanded his range of activities through major musical productions such as "The Phantom of the Opera," "Les Misérables," "Jekyll & Hyde," "Hero," and "Sweeney Todd," as well as the drama "Sisyphus: The Myth," "Maestra," the film "Masquerade," and "R2B: Return to Base."

In particular, Yang Jun-mo has built a strong presence as a stage actor, centered on large-scale musicals, by demonstrating powerful vocal volume and stable acting skills. Having spent a long time acting out the lives of others on stage, he has now reached another turning point in his own life.

The marriage of Yang Ji-won and Yang Jun-mo is garnering even greater interest as the joyful news of pregnancy and the process of forming a new family after a previous marriage are revealed simultaneously. Rather than denying the past, the two chose a new start while embracing the experiences they have had in their respective lives.

At the wedding ceremony, the sight of the Spica members singing together and Yang Ji-won and Yang Jun-mo standing side by side on stage shows that their new beginning is more than just a private change. By embracing their past experiences and long-standing connections, the couple is expected to begin a meaningful second chapter of their lives.
