Moon Geun-young Married Actor Jung Pyeong in July, Now Back on Screen with 'Our Ballad 2'

Married in July, back on air in October

Moon Geun-young married theater actor Jung Pyeong in July 2026. She announced it herself on SNS: "I met someone I want to walk with on a path I always walked alone, someone I want to share the times I worried alone with."

The ceremony stayed quiet. At the Our Ballad 2 production presentation, she reflected on what came after: "We held the ceremony quietly, but so many people congratulated and supported us, and I felt that I am loved by many people."

On October 26, she posted again on SNS to promote Our Ballad 2: "Finally starting round 2 'Our Ballad 2' watching the broadcast today" alongside several photos.

The illness she came back from

Before the marriage and comeback, Moon Geun-young had stepped away entirely after being diagnosed with acute compartment syndrome, a rare disease. She discussed it on tvN's You Quiz on the Block in April 2026.

"After surgery, I removed the bandage and saw the wound for the first time. I thought it was serious, but I was relieved that necrosis wasn't progressing. I think I cried when I heard that my finger nerves might not recover."

The physical demands of her return weighed on her too. "I enjoyed eating a lot during rehabilitation, so I gained weight and dieting is a concern. I'm doing my diet hard and performances require a lot of physical exertion so I'm exercising instead." Recovery, a wedding, and a new show in one year.
