On Joo-wan attends fiancee Bang Min-ah’s play ahead of November wedding

Actor On Joo-wan is showing open affection for his fiancee, singer and actress Bang Min-ah, formerly of the girl group Girl's Day, as their wedding approaches.

On posted photos to social media Saturday of his visit to the musical “Maybe Happy Ending,” in which Bang stars, expressing both admiration for the show and support for his bride-to-be. “It’s such a lovely play,” he wrote. “I want to see it again, but getting tickets is like reaching for the stars. I’m so proud.”

Set in near-future Seoul, “Maybe Happy Ending” follows helper-bots Oliver and Claire as they discover the emotion of love. Alongside Bang, the musical features Park Jin-joo, Lee Si-an and Park Se-hoon, marking its 10th anniversary this year.

The show’s writer, Hue Park, became the first Korean musical creator to win a Tony Award.

On and Bang surprised fans in July by announcing their engagement. According to their agencies, the couple, who have been dating seriously, will hold a private wedding in November. “We ask for warm blessings and support for the two as they begin a new chapter in their lives together,” the agencies said in a joint statement.

The pair first met while co-starring in the 2016 SBS drama “Beautiful Gong Shim,” and grew closer after appearing together in the 2021 musical “The Days.”
