The Korean entertainment industry is changing rapidly. More and more celebrities are stepping away from their careers to start families, proving that love can sometimes outweigh fame. But even with this shift, some stars remain committed to a life of solitude—and one of the most notable among them is none other than Gong Yoo.
Gong Yoo has long been a fan favorite, a household name admired for his undeniable talent, charisma, and ageless charm. For years, he was considered the ultimate ideal type, the kind of man women dreamed of marrying. But despite all the admiration, Gong Yoo shocked fans when he revealed that marriage was not in his plans.
In an interview, he admitted that he doesn’t see himself as mature enough to take on the responsibilities of marriage. Whenever he sees his colleagues with spouses and children, he jokingly calls them his "older siblings," even if they are younger than him. At 45 years old (as of 2024), it’s clear that his decision to remain unmarried is not just a phase—it’s a choice he has fully embraced.
But before coming to this conclusion, Gong Yoo was linked to some of the most beautiful and talented women in the industry. Whether these relationships were real or just rumors, fans have always been curious about the women who may have captured his heart.
1. Im Soo Jung
One of the most well-known dating rumors surrounding Gong Yoo involves actress Im Soo Jung. The two starred together in the 2010 film Finding Mr. Destiny, and their chemistry was undeniable. Over the years, rumors of their romance kept resurfacing, especially when they were spotted together in Jeju Island. Many believed they had a secret relationship, but both stars denied the claims, insisting they were just good friends.
2. Yoon Eun Hye
After starring alongside Yoon Eun Hye in the hit K-drama Coffee Prince (2007), fans were convinced that their sizzling on-screen chemistry had to be real. The way Gong Yoo looked at her, the effortless way they interacted—it all seemed too natural to be just acting. Even years later, Yoon Eun Hye hinted at a past romance with a co-star, which many speculated was Gong Yoo. However, he never confirmed anything, leaving fans to wonder if this was a love that bloomed in secret.
3. Kim Go Eun
Their close bond after starring in Goblin (2016) fueled intense dating speculation. Kim Go Eun’s sudden breakup with her then-boyfriend not long after Goblin aired only added to the rumors. Gong Yoo was seen as her rock during a difficult time, and their undeniable closeness raised eyebrows. While some fans hoped they were an item, neither of them ever confirmed the rumors, and their supposed romance faded into mystery.
4. Jung Yu Mi
Gong Yoo and Jung Yu Mi have collaborated on multiple projects, including Train to Busan (2016) and Kim Ji-young: Born 1982 (2019). Their close friendship led to wild marriage rumors, with some even claiming they had secretly tied the knot. However, Gong Yoo's agency was quick to shut down the speculation, calling it completely false. Despite this, their chemistry continues to spark curiosity.
So Why Did Gong Yoo Choose to Stay Unmarried?
Despite being linked to several beautiful and talented women, Gong Yoo has chosen a life without marriage. His reasons? He has openly stated that he enjoys his freedom and values his solitude. He has also hinted that the pressure of marriage and family life might not be something he wants to take on.
Some fans believe his decision is influenced by his deep dedication to acting, while others think he simply hasn't met the right person. Whatever the case, Gong Yoo remains one of Korea’s most beloved bachelors, and fans will continue to respect his choice—whether he decides to stay single forever or one day surprises everyone by saying, I do.
