It has been six months since actress Kim Tae Hee and singer-actor Rain announced they were dating. During those months, she was shooting the drama "Jang Ok Jung" and he was on military duty so they did not get to see each other very often. Now that he is returning to civilian life, fans are wondering if the couple's thoughts will turn to marriage.

It has been a busy year for kdrama weddings. Singer Baek Ji Young married actor Jung Suk Won.  Actor Han Jae Suk married actress Park Sol Mi. Kim Jae Won married a non-celebrity, and Lee Byung Hun and Lee Min Jung will marry in August.

So, have all these weddings inspired the actress to make wedding plans of her own?

Not so fast, said the actress, who starred in "Stairway to Heaven," "Iris" and "My Princess." She wants to take things slowly as that is really her style.

 "It takes a long time for me to date a guy," said Kim. "It takes a long time to get to know someone. You need time to build up that trust in each other so you can take that to marriage."

Although she says that she and Rain are doing well, they still need time to get to know each other better before taking such a big step.

"You need to experience a lot together," said Kim.

Being in love is nice, she says, but she really wants to be sure before she commits herself to marriage and children.

 "My mom sacrificed a lot for me and that's what I want to do for my kids," said Kim.

If she decides not to marry Rain, she does have other dating options. In the past many celebrities have named her as their ideal woman. That list includes SHINee's Minho, CNBlue's Kang Min Hyuk, TVXQ's Changmin, JYJ's Park Yoo Chun and Song Seung Hoon, her "My Princess" co-star, as well as actor Lee Jang Woo.

When she does get married though, she wants forever.

"The key point of marriage is to be with the person who I can love and care about until the end," she said.

But while Kim may honestly say the couple has no immediate wedding plans, kdrama fans may remember that only a few days before Lee Byung Hun and Lee Min Jung announced their plans, they also said they had none.
