Veteran actress Park Jung Soo opened up about why she never legally registered her marriage to producing director Jung Eul Young, Jung Kyung Ho’s father, despite the two having been together for 25 years.

In the latest episode of SBS’s My Little Old Boy, Park Jung Soo appeared as a guest and spoke with Kim Seung Soo, Kim Jong Min, and Yoon Min Soo. During the episode, Shin Dong Yup brought up Jung Eul Young, explaining, “He is actor Jung Kyung Ho’s father. Jung Kyung Ho is now a very famous actor, but back then, his father was much more famous.”

Park Jung Soo smiled as she recalled when she first met Jung Eul Young, “In 2001.” The actress then candidly shared why she chose not to legally register her marriage to Jung Eul Young despite their long-standing “common-law marriage” relationship. “There is a reason I didn’t register the marriage,” she said.

Marriage is not just between two people. It is a meeting between families. At that time, I was 50 years old. If there was ever a situation where I clashed with his family, and feelings got hurt, I didn’t feel confident that I could handle it.
