Another celebrity ties the knot: Park Shi-yeon has played the bride several times (once in Story of a Man, pictured above, and again in Coffee House), and it’s her turn to be one in real life. She has just announced her upcoming wedding to a non-celebrity, as well as her plans to hold the ceremony on November 19 at Seoul’s Hyatt Hotel.
Naturally, everyone’s curious to know who the groom is, and according to Park’s agency, he is identified only as Mr. Park, an ordinary office employee who works in the stocks and securities industry. The couple’s relationship was first rumored back in March, and has since turned serious.
Park Shi-yeon said in a statement via her agency, “I’m sorry to be conveying my wedding news through a press release like this. I’d like to set a good example in my happy marriage and family, and will do my best. I hope you’ll wish me well.”
Aw, yay for her! I used to think Park was just a pretty face who got acting offers because of her looks (admittedly, she was awful in her debut drama, My Girl), but she has gotten so much better in recent years and was just charming and winning in last year’s Coffee House. That made me a fan, and I loved how she portrayed a successful, confident businesswoman who wasn’t, for once, a bitch. (Why is that such a hard thing to find in dramaland? It shouldn’t be.)
Park’s current project is a “thriller sex comedy” called Scent of a Woman (absolutely no relation to the recent drama series), in which she stars alongside Park Hee-soon and Joo Sang-wook. The men play detectives, the former ending up as a suspect thanks to Park’s involvement, leading his junior colleague to chase him as well. The movie plans to release next year.

RECENTLY RECAPPED
It would be seriously creepy if she wore a Grace Kelly dress again.
But what on Earth is a “thriller sex comedy”??? Does not compute…
good question, left me wondering for a moment.
my lame guess would be something like the american show True Blood??
True Blood ain’t a sex comedy though.
it’ll prob be like basic instinct with some kind of dry humor
Like Fatal Instinct? Heh, probably not.
Happy for her.
Congrats to Shi-Yeon! I used to worry a lot about her after taking such a close impact from the loss of …
Live happily, the two of you!
Awww… congratulations to her. I also became her fan because of Coffee House. She was charming and lovable there that I couldn’t help but like her.
“Thriller sex comedy”?
aw man, Congrats to her…she will indeed make a very gorgeous bride
Congratulations!! waiting for the wedding pics
Awww i loved her in Coffee House too! She seemed such a bubbly and confident woman in real life too so i really liked her as a person as well. Congrats to her!
Based on her appearance on FO, PSY actually seems quiet and a bit timid (she let Hyori dominate her), but that may be due in part to her health issues.
Congrats to PSY – her role in CH was certainly an eye-opener (she stole the show from her co-stars).
‘Grats!!!
awwww… I love her in Coffee House…and that “Train Kiss” with Kang Ji Hwan that’s etched in my mind
Uhuh, that was a very hot kiss! Actually, all her kisses with Kang Ji Hwan in Coffee House were hot.
Congratulations to her!
I liked her in Story of a Man.
I hope she lives a happy life (and comes back to doing more roles) after she’s married.
aww congrats to the parks. he’s a lucky man:)
yep. agree.she looks like a nice girl. Congrats!
Aw! Congratulations! I love hearing wedding news
Awww yay! I adore her (thank you, CH) and I’m glad she’s found someone special. I hope they live long and happily together. ♥
Yay! I’ve liked her since Coffee House as well, congrats to her!
i wish her happiness.
Yay for her! She is gorgeous and I loved her in Coffee House!
Congratulations!
Yay for her.I read the news way back in March as well.He seemed to be well off and it was an arranged meet a la drama style.
How cool is that?
Omedetou!!! Chukaeyo!! Have a happy marriage.
Yeah!! I wish her the best!
Aw, I wish her all the best. I’ve followed her since My Girl and watched her get better over the years…*sniff*
Congratulations!
Yargh…
This is going to be insanely confusing trying to search for the *other* Scent of a Woman…
It was already confusing that it was a Western movie…
I have only seen her in “My Girl” and didn’t really think she’s pretty.
Congratulations Unnie!
And goodbye Eric.
I’m wishing you happiness! I love it when celebs get married ^^
lol yeah~ i was a fan ever since–or right after My Girl when I watched Fox Family. so i’ve always been fond of her and hated it when people referred to her as “eric’s gf all the time. when she and Eric broke up, i was actually happy for her. so yah, that’s what I thought when i heard she met someone with marriage intentions. Bye Eric~!
well..eric was more famous than her back then..no wonder people knew her as eric’s girl..
honestly i knew her also as eric’s girl at the time..but since family outing i like her as her..
she seems nice..and her in coffee house was really great..
congrats to her…^^
I love how celebs can marry non-celebs. It kinda reminds us that they are people just like everyone else. That acting is a job just like every other job out there. Celebs the marry other Celebs just like other people who found someone at their work place..
I’m happy that PSY found someone special to share her life with. I wish her happiness!
PS- also thought her debut in ‘my girl’ wasn’t soo great. but you have to start somewhere right?
She will make a beautiful bride. And yes, I agree. She totally won me over in Coffee House. She wasn’t a mere 2-d character any more.
I love her in Coffee House. She made a good decision to marry instead of waiting to be in her mid 30′s to get married. Once in love with the right guy – go for it!
I love her and I’m very happy for her
but why is she apologizing for “conveying my wedding news through a press release like this”? How else do celebs reveal such news? through twitter, lol?
That was what I was wondering as well. I don’t get why celebrities even have to tell the public/media they are getting married. Personally I would just get hitched and then let them discover it on their own lol.
Yeah, that doesn’t seem to over really well in Korea. There’s often a backlash associated with “secret” relationships, I guess that some fans feel “betrayed”? I don’t understand that, but K-culture fandom can be crazy.
Sorry but have to disagree. Best for the celeb to announce their marriage, otherwise public may not be happy or feel cheated/disgusted when they thought he/she were single and dating and then found out he/she is going through an ugly divorce later… Passing judgement is messy!
After all, it’s a happy news. Happiness should be shared.. ^_~
And, she should tell future hubby this line she said in “La Dolce Vita”:
“The opposite of Love is not Hate, it is Indifference.” Let neither of them ever be indifferent to each other.
Congratulations and Best Wishes to her!
Does anyone else remember the Family Outing episode where they were talking about polls that they came first in and she was voted as the No.1 celebrity most likely not to get married until the age of 40 or 50 ?
Guess she prove all those people wrong lol. ANYWAYS – CONGRATULATIONS to her and may her marriage be one filled with love and happiness ^^
Best wishes, PSY!
Congratulations to her and her man…
happy for her and love her
am soooooooooooooo happy for her , actually I didnt watch coffee house ( didnt know also she was Eric ex ) , but I loved her at family outing , she was funny , cute and humble , I really wish her the best………..
Good for her! Marrying a non-celebrity is probably a very smart move, I’d say; when one partner is awash in the wild tides of the entertainment industry, I think it’s very good for a successful long-term relationship to have the other one provide a more steady, down-to-earth counterbalance.
I hope they’ll be very happy.
I’ve loved her ever since Coffee House, and hope to see her in a drama again soon. She really is a good actress, and I’d love to see her play a strong, quirky and extraordinary heroine like that again!
Wow, this was a little unexpected but congrats to her! She’s had much ups and downs in the romance department so I’m so glad she finally found the one. I wish them all the happiness.
Im so Happy for her, She is a great person & actress.
Im sure the future Mr.Park is also a great person & most importantly the love of her life. Congratulations both & I wish you all the Happiness in this New Chapter of your Life Miss. Park Shi-yeon! <3
much congrats to her!! i so love her in COFFEE HOUSE. she was awful in MG, i remember complaining abt why coudnt they cast other actresses back then, but she slowly improves her acting and build her career!
congrats again dear! many love to both of you!
Congrats to her and groom-to-be.
Shotgun wedding?
I liked her in “Family Outing” S1, and especially the part where she and Hyori challenge each other ripping those plastic wrap screens w/ their faces. Her face was distorted in a hilarious way to the point where Hyori tried to take care of her and covered her face away from the camera. Hyori is a good confidant.
Two months from now she will announce she is five months pregnant.
Congrats PSY and hubby-to-be!
Now I should really start Coffee House.
Wow……how shocking. =D
CONGRATULATIONS, Park Shin Yeon!! I wish you & your soon-to-be hubby will become so haaappy married couples in the future!! ^__^
Wow! Not expecting this but she looks beautiful in wedding dress. Congratulatios PSY. All the best.
“thriller sex comedy”
I’m pretty sure they have a genre roulette wheel in the back room somewhere. When they are looking for something new, they just give it a spin.
“sports fantasy romance”
“historical sex horror”
“mystery comedy drama”
“slice-of-life medical action”
Congratulations to PSY! She look so beautiful in that wedding dress. I love that she is not a super skinny beauty..
Wish her all the happiness in her marriage life. Plus, I hope she can continue acting after marriage. ^_~
Aw congrats to her! I thought she and KJH were perfect together with that sizzling chemistry!
I became her fan since Coffee House too ( and secretly ship her and KJH, so I am bit sad hehe)
But I am glad that she finally found her happiness and make it as plan. That shows a lot of her personality there
Congrats PSY
And I am waiting for ur next project
( I want to see the lucky man so bad hehe)
That’s one lucky “ordinary office employee.” Of course she’ll make a beautiful bride.
YAY! I love her! Happy for her.
” she has gotten so much better in recent years and was just charming and winning in last year’s Coffee House.

That how I love her too.
Congratulations to her and her future husband! Hope she continues to act =)
