Newlywed Jang Dong-gun returns from honeymoon tomorrow

Korea's most famous newlywed actors Jang Dong-gun and Ko So-young will be returning home from their honeymoon to Southeast Asia tomorrow, according to Jang's agency.

"Jang and Ko will be returning from Bali around 9 a.m. tomorrow," a source with AM Entertainment told Asia Economic Daily over the phone on Friday.

The couple, who had tied the knot at Seoul's The Shilla hotel on May 2, will be arriving in Seoul after their six-day stay on the Indonesian island and pay a visit to their parents first thing, which is customary for Korea's newlyweds.

The source explained that the actor will be getting ready to shoot Kang Je-gyu's war pic "My Way" whose filming, as recently reported, has been delayed from July to "sometime after October."

When asked whether the couple had any plans to appear in a commercial together, he answered, "nothing has been set yet" but added that Jang will be "sorting out production-related issues for an antipoverty documentary that he has been preparing."

Jang and Ko, long-time friends who had sparked dating rumors ever since they met on the 1999 film "Love Wind, Love Song", made headlines last November when they went public with their two-year romance.

The union of Korea's top two stars caused a huge stir among fans and the media, but the two remained private and offered no further details about their relationship during the months leading up to their nuptials.

The couple got married last Sunday in an elaborate wedding ceremony, which was studded with celebrity guests, reporters and fans from around the world. They will settle in their new home in Seoul's Heukseuk-dong area.
