Actress Han, footballer Ki to marry

Actress and TV show host Han Hye-jin and Premier League footballer Ki Sung-yueng said they will tie the knot.

"We will get married on the first of July," Han said on Twitter.

Han is eight years older than the 24-year-old midfielder for Swansea City.

Ki is scheduled to return to Swansea City to join a team training session a day after the wedding, she said, adding that she will go to the European country to live with him.

Han now serves as an emcee of SBS TV's late-night talk show "Healing Camp."
