From Onscreen Chemistry to Real-Life Romance
Hyun Bin and Son Ye-jin’s relationship has charmed fans around the world—both on-screen and off. Their journey from co-stars in the globally beloved drama Crash Landing on You to life partners has been nothing short of cinematic. But beyond the glamor and lights, theirs is a story of genuine love, mutual respect, and quiet understanding.
A Connection That Started On Set
The two first met while filming the 2018 film The Negotiation, but it was during the filming of Crash Landing on You that their bond truly blossomed. With countless conversations and deep professional collaboration, their relationship developed naturally. As Hyun Bin once reflected, their connection didn’t have a precise beginning—it simply grew over time.
Son Ye-jin has described Hyun Bin as her “first love,” adding an emotional depth that makes their story all the more moving for fans. Sharing the same industry has given them a unique understanding of each other’s pressures, challenges, and victories. Hyun Bin once said, “We understand everything without having to explain it in detail.”
A New Chapter: Parenthood
In November 2022, the couple welcomed their first child, a baby boy. Choosing to maintain their family's privacy, they’ve kept their son mostly out of the spotlight. However, Son Ye-jin occasionally shares small glimpses of their family life, letting fans witness the happiness their son brings into their lives.
Hyun Bin has spoken about how fatherhood has transformed him. He enjoys family walks and playground visits, cherishing the little moments. Despite humbly admitting that Son Ye-jin is better at reading storybooks, his love and devotion as a father are clearly evident.
Navigating Fame and Marriage
Being married to someone in the same demanding industry has its advantages and challenges. The couple understands each other’s hectic schedules, yet as Hyun Bin pointed out, it can sometimes mean "knowing too much," which leaves little room for surprises.

A Love That Continues to Inspire
