The couple’s divorce came ten months after Ahn Jae-hyun filed for divorce against Ku Hye-sun on Sept. 9, 2019. The two fell in love while doing “Blood” and tied the knot on May 21, 2016.

In a statement issued after the decision came out, the couple’s legal representatives said, “Ahn Jae-hyun and Ku Hye-sun agreed to settle for divorce through mediation on July 15, 2020,” according to SBS News.

“The two will each walk on their own paths, and they will wish the best for each other’s future. We express apologies for causing trouble to the public with their personal issues until now,” the statement added.
