배우 백윤식 (66)이 서른살 연하의 지상파 방송사 기자와 교제중인 것으로 알려졌다.

백윤식은 소속사 나무엑터스 관계자는 13일 “두 사람이 지난해 6월부터 사귀기 시작했다”며 이들이 진지하게 교제 중이라고 밝혔다. 이들은 지인들과의 만남 자리에서 처음 만났다고 한다.

백윤식과 이 여성은 아직까지 구체적인 결혼계획은 세우지 않은 것으로 알려졌다.

백윤식은 2004년 아내와 이혼했으며 마찬가지로 배우인 아들 백도빈 (35), 백서빈 (29)을 두고 있다. 만약 백윤식이 현재 교제중인 여성과 결혼한다면 백도빈 입장에서는 한살 차이 새엄마가 생기는 셈이다.

특유의 카리스마 넘치는 연기로 유명한 백윤식은 드라마와 스크린을 오가며 왕성한 연기활동을 펼치기도 했으며, “지구를 지켜라(2003)에서의 열연으로 대종상 등 주요 시상식의 남우조연상을 휩쓸기도 했다.

Acclaimed actor dating reporter 30 years his junior

Actor Baek Yoon-sik, 66, is dating a reporter who is 30 years his junior, his agency said Friday.

“They started dating in June 2012. Mr. Baek Yoon-sik first met her at a meeting held among his acquaintances,” said an official from Namoo Actors Co. The official added that the couple were in a “serious relationship” but did not comment on whether or not the two were planning to get married in the near future.

Baek’s girlfriend, a 36-year-old reporter for a local broadcaster, was revealed to the public by a tabloid newspaper earlier in the day. The newspaper said that the unnamed reporter had been an avid fan of the actor.

The veteran actor debuted in the 1970 as a TV actor, and has appeared in scores of dramas and movies. One of his most noted performances came in the 2004 film “The Big Swindle,” where he played a master con artist.

Baek is critically acclaimed as well, having been honored at most major film awards ceremonies in South Korea. He won “Best Supporting Actor” awards at the Grand Bell Film Awards, Blue Dragon Film Awards, Korean Film Awards, and Puchon International Fantastic Film Festival for his appearance in 2003 film “Save the Green Planet!”

Baek divorced his wife in 2004 and has two sons, Do-bin and Seo-bin, who are both actors.
