Citing personnel in the film industry close to Hong, the report said Hong is thinking about marrying actress Kim Min-hee. “A divorce is unavoidable. Hong regrets that he has to go through with a suit,” the source said.

Hong has dated Kim, who is not married, for around three years. Kim has starred in numerous films made by the award-winning director, including “Claire’s Camera” and “Hotel by the River.”

The two publically admitted to their relationship at a media event held last year for their film “On the Beach at Night Alone.“
