Actor Koo Kyo-hwan and director Lee Ok-seop, long known as one of the Korean film industry's most enduring couples, have actually been husband and wife for four years.

Xportsnews learned that Koo and Lee legally married after registering their marriage in 2022. The revelation comes as a surprise because the pair had continued to be widely described as a longtime couple rather than a married one.

Koo and Lee began dating in 2013 and publicly confirmed their relationship in 2020. Two years later, they quietly registered their marriage without publicly announcing the change in their relationship status.

The couple did not hold a separate wedding ceremony after registering their marriage and currently have no plans to hold one, according to sources.

Beyond their relationship, Koo and Lee have built a long creative partnership in Korea's independent film scene. Both attended the Seoul Institute of the Arts and have worked together on numerous projects, including "A Dangerous Woman," "Love Docu," "Fly to the Sky" and "Maggie." They also jointly run the production company 2X9HD.

Their collaboration has continued in recent projects. They worked together on "Your Country," a film that drew attention for starring comedian Jang Do-yeon, and "Love Counselor," which has generated interest as actor Lee Na-young's return to acting. "Love Counselor" is currently being filmed.

Koo, meanwhile, remains active as an actor. After appearing in "Once We Were Us" late last year, he went on to star in the film "Colony" and JTBC's "We Are All Trying Here."

He is currently appearing in "Revival Man: The Red," which opened in theaters Wednesday, while another film, "White Blast," is scheduled for release later this year.

演员具教焕和导演李玉燮长期以来被誉为韩国电影界最长久的夫妻之一，实际上他们已经结婚四年了。

Xportsnews获悉，具荷娜和李敏镐于2022年登记结婚，正式结为夫妻。这一消息令人惊讶，因为此前两人一直被广泛描述为交往多年的情侣，而非已婚夫妇。

Koo和Lee于2013年开始交往，并于2020年公开承认恋情。两年后，他们悄悄登记结婚，并未公开宣布关系状态的改变。

据消息人士透露，这对夫妇在登记结婚后没有举行单独的婚礼仪式，目前也没有举行婚礼仪式的计划。

除了恋情之外，具荷拉和李敏镐在韩国独立电影界也建立了长期的创作伙伴关系。两人都毕业于首尔艺术大学，并合作过众多项目，包括《危险女人》、《爱情纪录片》、《飞向天空》和《玛吉》。他们还共同经营着一家名为2X9HD的制作公司。

他们近期的合作仍在继续。他们曾共同参与电影《你的国家》的制作，该片因喜剧演员张度妍的主演而备受关注；此外，他们还合作了《爱情顾问》，该片标志着演员李娜英的回归之作，也引起了广泛关注。《爱情顾问》目前正在拍摄中。

与此同时，具荷拉依然活跃在演艺圈。去年底出演《我们曾经是》之后，他又主演了电影《殖民地》和JTBC电视剧《我们都在这里努力》。

他目前正在出演电影《复活者：红色》，该片于周三在影院上映；另一部电影《白色爆炸》计划于今年晚些时候上映。
