Rain & Kim Tae-hee
The first time Rain and Kim Tae-hee’s relationship became known to public was in 2013, when Rain was in the military service and Kim Tae-hee was caught on camera going to visit him. Actually, the pair had been seeing each other for years before their relationship was reported by media. Rain and Kim Tae-hee met when they were both shooting for a commercial in 2011. Rain’s manager said that Rain and Kim Tae-hee were so shy when they first met that It was more like a blind date than a shooting project. Rain was coming to the set even when it was not his time to be there. A few weeks after the project, Rain was set to join the military. But he still found the time to meet Kim Tae-hee before it was time for him to enlist. In 2013, before Rain was supposed to be discharged, Kim Tae-hee visited him and it was caught on camera, creating news headlines that proclaimed the couple was dating. Rain even got punished over it. He finished his enlistment and was discharged in July 2013. After he was discharged, the two of them could finally see each other openly. They deepened their romantic relationship with years of dating. In the end, after a lot of struggles and obstacles, Rain and Kim Tae-hee decided to tie the knot in 2017. They held a private wedding, only inviting some of their friends and family. A few months after their wedding, Kim Tae-hee announced her pregnancy by showing off her baby bump to the public. On October 25, 2017, the couple welcomed their first baby girl to the world. A few years later, in September 2019, it was reported that the actress had given birth to another beautiful baby girl in Seoul hospital. Kim Tae-hee’s agency released the official statement on the day she delivered the baby. Even though the couple rarely shares their private life with the public, including pictures of their babies, we are still glad that the two of them continue to maintain their romantic relationship years after they first met. All the best wishes for Rain and Kim Tae-hee’s family!
