The statement read, as translated by entertainment site Soompi:

“We have some good news for everyone today about our actor, So Ji Sub.

“So Ji Sub has developed a precious relationship [with Cho Eun Jung] and has made his wedding vow.

"The two, who acknowledged their relationship last year, promised to be partners for the rest of their lives based on their mutual trust and love for each other.

"They registered their marriage today, April 7.”

The marriage was said to be witnessed by their family members.

Aside from their marriage, the couple donated 50 million Korean Won to Good Neighbors to help children who are having trouble with education.

Back in May 2019, Korean news agency Dispatch reported the two were in a relationship that was later confirmed by So Ji Sub's agency.

"소간지의, 간지나는 결혼" . 배우 소지섭의 결혼은, 말 그대로 '간지'였다. 화려한 예식을 생략하고, 이웃에 뜻 깊은 기부를 한 것. 그의 애칭인 '소간지' 다운 결정이었다 소지섭의 아내는 조은정 前 아나운서. 두 사람은 3년 간 조용히 사랑을 키워왔다. 그리고 7일, 아무도 모르게 혼인 신고를 마쳤다 디스패치가 지난해 목격한 데이트도, 소박하기 그지 없었다. 편안한 맨투맨과 바지, 운동화 차림. 둘은 커피 한 잔씩을 들고 한남동 거리를 걸었다 예식도 소탈했다. 성대한 웨딩마치는 없었다. '51K' 측은 "소지섭과 조은정의 뜻에 따라, 식은 직계 가족들끼리 모여 조용히 치를 예정"이라고 전했다 그 대신, 어려운 이웃에게 사랑을 나눴다. '굿네이버스'에 5,000만 원을 쾌척한 것. "모두가 어려움을 겪고 있는 시기에 조금이나마 위로와 도움이 되고 싶다"고 밝혔다 소지섭과 조은정의 기부금은 저소득층에게 돌아간다. 교육 취약 계층 아동들의 태블릿PC 및 스마트 기기 지원에 사용될 계획이다 . '51K' 측은 "인생의 새로운 시작을 앞두고 있는 두 사람을 축복해 주시길 부탁드린다"며 "앞으로 배우로서 더 좋은 활동으로 보답하겠다. 감사드린다"고 덧붙였다 한편 소지섭과 조은정은 지난 2018년 2월 SBS-TV '본격연예 한밤'으로 처음 만났다. 지인 모임에서 친분을 가졌고, 지난해 열애를 인정했다 [Dispatch=김지호기자] #소지섭 #조은정 #결혼 #혼인신고 #SoJiSub #ChoEunJung #wedding
