Star couple Park Chul and Ok So-ri are divorcing after 11 years of marriage.
Park filed for divorce on Oct. 9, shocking many who considered them the ``perfect couple.''
Park, who was one of the heartthrobs of the 1990's, and Ok met and fell in love on the set of the 1994 drama ``Yeongung Ilgi (Hero Diary).'' They married in December 1996, and have been one of the most beloved couples in Korean entertainment. They have an 8-year old daughter.
Considering the couple's popularity, Ok's mini-home page also became the subject of public scrutiny. She closed the photo section, which used to be filled with her family photos, and replaced it with an image of a bouquet of flowers. Only the message board is open to the public.
Park has been quoted as saying the divorce should not affect his broadcast activities, and will continue his work on cable TV and radio. He hosts the ``Park Chul Show'' on StoryOn cable channel. The 38-year old Park has appeared in numerous films and TV dramas including ``Four Sisters'' and ``All About Eve.''
Ok is currently hosting a radio show on SBS Radio FM ``11 o'clock, I am Ok So-ri.'' She has starred in numerous dramas and films in the 1990s.
