Marco & Ahn Shi-Yeon photo via allkpop.com |
He's a Korean/Argentine model-turned-actor-turned-pop culture-personality... with a sweet smile and killer abs.
While other lady golfers battle it out in Guadalajara at the Lorena Ochoa Invitational, Seoul Sister Ahn Shi Hyun will marry her ultra-handsome boyfriend Marco today at a wedding hall in Cheongdam-dong, which I'm told is a trendy, young Rodeo Drive-ish section of the South Korean capital.
The union of these two talented and attractive young people is clearly a marriage made in marketing heaven. After all, In Korea women's golf is huge. So much so that it just naturally transcends into popular culture, inspiring television dramas like Birdie Buddy... based on a comic book with the same title... and video games such as the ever popular PangYa. Though Ahn has struggled with back problems in recent years she maintains a busy playing schedule and remains a media darling.
Then there's Marco. Like Cher, Usher and Beyonce he doesn't need a last name. Though born and raised in Argentina, once he got to Korea his rise was meteoric. He's now attained idol status.
He was attracted to his bride... according to the PR people... because of their shared interest in sports. And he happens to look great in argyle. ~ Sounds like a winning couple on a multitude of levels. 안녕하세요 Congratulations Marco and Ahn.
