Lee Min-ho in Pachinko

Lee Min-ho is among the Korean actors who have been a crush of every woman across the world. He is back with Pachinko 2, the first episode of which is a roaring success. However, Min-ho has news that might break the hearts of those who have had a crush on him over the years. After 18 years of working as an actor, Min-ho is finally ready for marriage. If not walking down the aisle, he could end up having children with his partner, or adopting kids. The actor confirmed the same at a recently held press conference post Pachinko 2's release.

What Lee Min-ho said

At the press conference held in Seoul on August 23, Min-ho confirmed that he wants to get married or have children. This is because he feels that in his 18 years of career (which he is grateful for), Min-ho has found stability. He now wants to challenge himself and do things which are the complete opposite of that. "It could be marriage or children. I'm really thinking about those things," the actor said.

Who is Lee Min-ho dating?

There is no confirmation on the same yet but Min-ho is rumoured to be dating Goblin star Kim Go-eun. The two had appeared in The King: Eternal Monarch and fans started shipping them together since 2020. Although the dating rumours had died down, it started again in 2022, only to be fuelled by their engagement rumours in October 2023. It was when both Min-ho and Go-eun were spotted wearing rings. The latter had hushed the rumours stating the ring was a birthday gift from her mother. The duo have been mum on their relationship status, but the rumours of them planning to get secretly married did do the rounds back in September 2023.

Pachinko 2's roaring success

Just one episode from Pachinko 2 has released but it has received praises for keeping the realism alive. The concept of the show connected with viewers back in season 1 and season 2 brings back the feels, while also making it better. This time, the story is set in Japan during World War II times, which Sun-ja (Kim Min-ha) survived and is now facing the consequences of inflation as Solomon (Jin Ha)'s grandmother.
