When actors Lee Bo Young and Ji Sung married in September of 2013 they knew they wanted to have children.

"I want to be a father soon," Ji Sung said a few months after his wedding. " We don't have any specific plans, like how many children we want; we just want to have children when it happens."

A year later the couple is expecting. On Nov. 24 Ji Sung's agency Namoo Actors told Newsen that Lee Bo Young is 10 weeks pregnant and that the actor is extremely happy over the pregnancy news. The representative also said that the actress plans to take a break from acting.

For the time being, she won′t be active in projects but will focus on her baby," said the Namoo Actors representative. "She usually takes very good care of her health, but until next summer when the baby is due, she will be extra careful."

The actors met when they both appeared in the 2004 SBS drama "Save The Last Dance For Me." In that drama Lee Bo Young lost Ji Sung to his leading lady, played by Eugene. In real life, they were attracted to each other and began dating. But they kept their relationship a secret until 2007 when a photographer caught them out on a date. After that they continued to be so private about their relationship it generated repeated break-up rumors.

"Despite the breakup rumors we were going on dates," Ji Sung said. "We always trusted each other.

Shortly after the actress completed her award-winning role in the 2013 drama "I Hear Your Voice" she announced her wedding plans. She did not want to make the announcement until the drama's end because the show's fans were so invested in her onscreen relationship with her co-star Lee Jong Suk. She did confess her secret wedding plans to Lee Jong Suk, who was one of the few celebrities invited to the wedding.

Ji Sung did not want to wait that long.

"Honestly, I wanted to get married earlier," said Ji Sung. "In my mind, I was already married to her."

The couple married on Sept. 27, 2013, two days after Ji Sung's drama "Secrets" aired for the first time. It was a successful year for both actors.

Lee Bo Young has described her husband as having "a beautiful heart."

She also said that they dated for so long that they don't have much to fight about.

"We know each other well enough to understand what the other thinks," she said. "We think the same, we have the same job, and we understand each other a lot."

Having a child will rearrange their priorities. Between work and family Ji Sung has said that his wife and family will always come first.
