Veteran Korean Music Star DK Joo Shocks K-ent and TW-ent with Announcement of Marriage to Barbie Hsu Just 4 Months After Her Divorce

Okay, these two either went “Hold My Beer” around the other star relationship news recently or they are legit starring in their own K-drama. I hope its the latter but also realize it doesn’t matter, folks who are rich and famous usually figure it out for better or for worse. A twin shock was dropped on K-ent and TW-ent on this Tuesday morning thanks to a love story straight out of a weekend drama. No screenwriter could have come up with a wilder story. Veteran Korean musician DJ Koo (Koo Jun Yup) formerly of the dance duo Clon announced this morning that he and TW-star Barbie Hsu (Da S) were married. Like, come again. She is just four months out from finalizing her divorce to ex-husband Wang Xiaofei but the kicker is that this is a reunion for DJ Koo and Da S. They apparently secretly dated in the late 90’s (around 1998-1999) when she fell in love with him at first sight attending Tarcy Su’s concert where Clon was the special guest. They met backstage and the rest is first history, as they dated but broke up a year later due to pressure from his agency to not be in a relationship, and her agency was also selling her dream girl next door image right around the time of Meteor Garden.

They lost touch for the last twenty years, but DJ Koo explained that he intentionally never contacted her because she got married and he respected that, but she was always the one that got away. She was the best woman he had ever dated. When he heard of her divorce, he found her cell phone number from when they dated and dialed it with just a hope. It was indeed still her cell number and she picked up and the two started talking. They have been dating long distance, he’s in Korea and she’s in Taiwan, and he really wanted to spend the rest of his life with her starting now so he asked her to marry him so he could come to Taiwan to see her (only citizens and spouses can enter Taiwan during the pandemic) and then bring her back to Korea to start their life together. She agreed and they have registered their marriage and he’s flying to Taiwan tomorrow, do the 10 day quarantine, then spend two months there together before the newlyweds fly back to Korea. Since he’s 50 years old and she’s 46 and also the mom to two kids I think they are old enough to know what they want so best of luck and congrats! Apparently there is now a meme in Taiwan for the last few hours since the news broke with forty-something Taiwanese women posting on their FB and Insta that they still have the same cell phone number since 20 years ago ahahaha.
