Uhm Tae-woong to be husband and father
by javabeans
girlfriday: So… Uhm Tae-woong is getting married?! Did the sky fall down?
javabeans: Basically what I’m taking from this is: Tae-woong is a better actor than I gave him credit for (and I give him a lot), because he totally Keyser Soze’d us with the Captain Lonelyhearts routine.
girlfriday: I know! All this time he was all “I’m so lonely” and “I want a girlfriend” and “Where’s my other half?” and getting sympathy from his bros and from the entire country, and he totally had a girlfriend.
javabeans: Maybe all his lovey-dovey antics (talking about dating every chance he got, making props kiss) was just him being giddy with romance.
girlfriday: We’ve been hoodwinked. He was in love this whole time and just being a doofus about it?
javabeans: Or… in lust? Because apparently his honey is knocked up. For five weeks. Now there’s a man of action for you. She’s one week late and he’s all, “Let’s get hitched!”
girlfriday: Well, he WAS in a big ol’ hurry. So, to back up: Tae-woong announced out of the blue on today’s episode of 1 Night 2 Days that he’s getting married to a ballerina, and also apparently going to be a dad too.
javabeans: She’s the daughter of veteran actor Yoon Il-bong, and she’s a 32-year-old member of the Korean National Ballet. Why do I feel like he’s going to jump back into the “I’m better than you haha” game with Lee Seon-kyun now that he’s got a (to-be) wife and kid too?
girlfriday: Yeah now it’ll turn into how many kids and who’s smarter and eats all their peas. I have a feeling Seon-kyun wins all their contests even if he loses anyway, because he’s just a better talker. I’m just happy for Tae-woong finally getting to join the Married Team on 1N2D, because he just seemed to want it So. Badly.
javabeans: Is it mean that I think that does nothing for the balance of which team has the bigger advantage? HA. If anything he’s just adding to the Bumbling Game Player quotient, which gives the Singles the edge.
girlfriday: Yeah it actually groups Seung-woo, Tae-hyun, and Tae-woong (the Cannots) all on one team now, so they might put up a fight. Tae-hyun will probably argue for Dads vs. Non-dads or something to keep the mathically-challenged Tae-woong at bay.
javabeans: He’s only got eight months to make that work. Better get a move on.
girlfriday: Can’t you see follow-everything-my-hyung-does Joo-won suddenly going, “I wanna get mawieed too!”
javabeans: Yes, so he finally has someone to kill his bugs for him. The question is, now that the news is out in the open, just HOW disgustingly, publicly romantic is Tae-woong going to get? Are we talking frequent mentions of the wifey on camera, or full-on serenades and poetry performances every episode?
girlfriday: I dunno, but it’s Tae-woong, so it’s guaranteed to be really, really embarrassing for everyone, including us.
javabeans: That’ll just have to be his cross to bear.

The news totally caught me by surprise, and I seriously thought he was saying he was going to have to quit when they showed the clip at the end of today's episode. He kept up the lonely act really well because it never occurred to me that he could be dating. Anyways, so happy for him, and many blessings to the future family!

I was watching 1N2D on a bus in Korea last night and didn't pay much attention throughout the episode, but I caught his announcement and I almost didn't think he was being serious o.O (It didn't help that I was in the back of the bus and therefore couldn't see or hear very well.) But I figured Dramabeans would be all over this news if it was true, hehe.

So..... No more Taewoong and Soo-Ae fantasies?
At least he is happy. Although I wonder if he wanted to keep his relationship a secret, or him simply sticking closely to his on-screen persona for the show.

The idea of the wife special was suggested in Season 1 but the married ones were all against it. Especially Su-geun and Kim C. I'd love to watch it.

Let's see if Bird PD can bear to give punishments when the guests are THAT cute.

I'm all for celebs keeping their personal lives as quiet as they can, especially for the sake of the spouse and children and extended families, and well, probably their sanity. I do not blame any of them for re-directing attention from their personal lives. And we have to remember, actors, and I'll include anyone that performs for the entertainment of others in that category, are professional liars, so anything they say is suspect and could be just part of the show lol.
All that said, best wishes to Uhm Force and Ms. Ballerina.

I'm glad he announced it on 1N2D first. Totally love the reactions of the boys when he did.
And now I have flashbacks of UTW's very first episode on the show! Ji-won told him that the show is gonna go on for a long time and they will see UTW get married and have children. And what do you know, we did! ;)
If he's been dating her for 5 months, then that's like half of 1N2D Season 2. Maybe all the Lonely Boy comments then weren't really Lonely Boy comments because he said he wanted to marry her from Day 2. So maybe he was seriously thinking about it and that prompted all the love-related comments. Maybe he wasn't acting like he didn't have anybody; maybe we all saw it differently because we thought he wasn't dating anyone. o_O
But hey, congrats UTW! I look forward to the 1N2D ep after the wedding. Muwahahaha!
