For Korean power couple Jung Ji Hoon (better known as Rain) and Kim Tae Hee, 2015 has been a very successful year pertaining to K-dramas. Earlier this year, Tae Hee played the female lead, Han Yeo Jin, in Yong Pal. The series was so popular that by its finale, it earned 20 percent of Korean nationwide viewership ratings for multiple episodes. As for Rain, he is doing well playing the male lead, Xiao Liang, in the drama Diamond Lover (trailer attached below), a series that is very popular in China.

There are rumors that more positivity is on the way for Rain and Kim Tae Hee. Along with their successful acting roles this year, K-drama fans are hearing from the grapevine that Rain and Tae Hee have marriage on their minds. As a matter of fact, the rumors claim both are planning a Christmas wedding. However, are the rumors true?

The rumors came about thanks to a report by Woman Sense on November 20, as reported by AllKpop. According to the report, both Rain and Kim Tae Hee adjusted their busy schedules so they can get married in Korea on December 24. Supposedly, both stars wanted their wedding to be a beautiful Christmas gift to each other.

Fans who want to see the two finally tie the knot may be disappointed to learn the rumors are false.

Rain Company, the agency Rain is signed to, had his representative provide a statement pertaining to the rumors. Take note that Rain Company is actually owned by Rain himself. If anyone knows about Rain getting married, it would be his agency. However, this is what said representative stated on the matter.

“How can there be a marriage that we don’t know about?”

Lua Entertainment, the agency Kim Tae Hee is signed to, also had her representative provide a statement on the rumors. They said the rumors were “groundless.”

“Absolutely not true. We don’t understand where these rumors are coming from?”

It is a shame wedding rumors are becoming an issue for Rain and Kim Tae Hee. According to KdramaStars, these rumors arrived just a few months after they had to deny another wave of wedding rumors earlier this year. During a press conference on July 30, Tae Hee made it known how she felt burdened constantly having to answer questions pertaining on marriage or weddings.

“But we’ve never made concrete plans or taken any form of action,” she said. “I, like everyone else, don’t know at all whom or how I would marry.”

Ever since Rain and Kim Tae Hee went public with their relationship, marriage rumors have hounded them. Throughout the last two years, numerous rumors pertaining to such have arisen. The following are all the rumors that fueled the fire for Rain and Tae Hee marriage rumors.

  • Rain sold his home in Seoul’s Samseong neighborhood in which speculation rose the funds were to be used for a wedding.
  • In June 2014, Rain converted to Catholicism. Fans thought he did this because Kim Tae Hee is Catholic and it was in preparation for a wedding.
  • Earlier this year in April, a report claimed the parents of both Rain and Kim Tae Hee met, giving their approval for the two to marry.
  • It was also around April earlier this year that rumors spread that Rain and Kim Tae Hee had booked a hall to be used for a wedding sometime this year.
  • Another rumor claimed there was a “special clause” in Kim Tae Hee’s contract for her role in Yong Pal. The clause was to excuse her from production for a wedding ceremony with Rain.

In all those rumors, Rain, Kim Tae Hee, or their respective agencies had to say they were not true. And, if they were true, it was their private lives, so why should fans get involved? In the end though, the fact such rumors were given so much credence just means one thing: fans really want Rain and Tae Hee to be married.
