Tang Wei is set to appear in the upcoming film “Wonderland,” directed by her husband, Kim Tae-young. In the movie, she and Gong Yoo portray a married couple. On the evening of May 31, Tang Wei pleasantly surprised fans by posting a photo of the two of them together. In the picture, Gong Yoo was wearing a dark fisherman’s hat and black-framed glasses, taking a selfie with his phone; Tang Wei playfully covered half of her face, revealing a slight smile, and greeted with Gong Yoo’s character’s name in “Wonderland,” saying, “Hi, AI Seung-jun.”
