Newly wed actor Kwon Sang-woo (권상우) was caught walking down the aisle once again ― this time with actress Lee Bo-young in the upcoming movie ``A Sad Story'' (working English title; 슬픔보다 슬픈 이야기).

As its title suggests, the film is about heartbreaking, unrequited love. The wedding shoot, revealed to the press Monday in a Seoul cathedral, featured Kwon's character walking down the aisle with the woman he loves (Lee Bo-young 이보영) ― but only to marry her off to another man (Lee Beom-soo 이범수).

Kwon returns to the romance genre after foraying comic or tough guy parts, such as in ``Fate 숙명." He said he drew inspiration from his own marriage for his latest role. ``I think being married enables me to think more deeply about playing melodramatic parts. Like my movie character, Kay, I also needed a lot of courage to bear the fruits of my love,'' he said. >>More
