K-actress Chae Rim and C-actor Gao Zi Qi Confirm Divorce After 6 Year Marriage

It feels like another chapter coming down from the 2000s cross-border collaboration leading to romance between Korean and Chinese stars. This past decade has been fraught with more contention between the two countries politically which has impacted entertainment. K-actress Chae Rim was one of the top actresses of her generation and went early on to China to star in dramas and movies and actually made a name for herself. She ended up having a relationship with C-actor Gao Zi Qi after doing a C-drama together and the two tied the knot 6 years ago in a lovely ceremony in both China and South Korea. Three years ago the couple welcomed their first child a daughter together, but since then C-ent has been reporting on pending divorce. Both have repeatedly denied it but today K-ent reported that the two are indeed divorced and Chae Rim has moved permanently back to South Korea. She responded on her SNS with a tacit confirmation as did Gao Zi Qi after. I’m sad their marriage didn’t work out and wish both the best in co-parenting and future happiness.

  • Sad news! I have been her fan since watching ‘All about Eve’ many years back and really love her smile. Hope she finds happiness back in Korea!

  • So sad, she was one of my fav actresses since i saw her in " dating now " and"Four sisters" . I miss her a lot i wish to see her in a production soon . If i'm not wrong, his last korean drama was in 2010 with Choi Si Won .

  • I feel so bad for her. I thought it would have work out with them since he seemed like he doted on her a lot. I hope she will find love again soon since she’s still young.

  • Aww I really like her too. From all about eve days too. Sorry to hear such news. Beat wishes to her and her daughter.

  • Sad to hear this but not surprised. First saw Chae Rim in All About Eve. Was very taken by her bubbly, bright & cheerful personality. Wish her and her daughter and ex all the best.

  • Aww, I still remember when you posted her wedding/engagement pic because it was lovely. Sad her marriage didn't work out, wish her family the best. I know how difficult it must be to raise a child when parents are in different countries...but I am excited she's back in Korea. Maybe she'll start picking up projects again

  • Love Chae Rim so and her work. My very first favorite Korean actress I've seen in Loving You, All About Eve, 4 Sisters, We're Dating, Love of The Aegean Sea, Yang Clan, Dal Ja's Spring, and Oh My Lady. I hope the best for her and hoping to see her in a new production.
