Korean superstar couple Hyun Bin and Son Ye Jin continue to melt hearts with their low-key yet affectionate married life. The actor recently gained attention after openly praising his wife’s cooking skills, revealing that Son Ye Jin personally prepares a special New Year’s Eve dish for the family every year.
Hyun Bin and Son Ye Jin met through their hit drama Crash Landing on You, before getting married in 2022. The couple now shares a son and is widely regarded as one of the entertainment industry’s most exemplary marriages.
The sweet moment resurfaced after comedian Lee Young Ja shared her New Year’s Eve dishes on her YouTube channel. During the episode, the show revisited Hyun Bin’s appearance last year (2025), when he joined the program to promote his latest project. When asked about New Year’s food traditions, Hyun Bin didn’t hesitate to mention his wife.
She revealed that Son Ye Jin makes seaweed soup and oyster rice cake every Lunar New Year, a dish she cooks for the whole family. As she talked about it, Hyun Bin couldn’t hide his affection and even raised his thumb in approval, smiling proudly as he praised her cooking, an unmistakable display of marital bliss.
Hyun Bin openly praised Son Ye Jin’s New Year’s cooking, giving the show a thumbs up.
The couple, while notoriously private, occasionally share glimpses of their warm family life. In early January this year, Son Ye Jin celebrated her birthday with her family, where her 3-year-old son adorably urged her to blow out the candles quickly, not out of impatience, but because he wanted to eat his chicken leg first. The candid moment reportedly made Hyun Bin laugh behind the camera.
From heartfelt compliments to everyday family moments, Hyun Bin and Son Ye Jin continue to prove that their love extends far beyond the screen, proving that sometimes, the fastest way to a person’s heart truly is through a home-cooked meal.
