Lee Mi-sook, the 45-year-old star of "Untold Scandal", "An Affair", "Whale Hunting" and "That Winter Was Warm", ended her 20-year marriage to plastic surgeon Hong Sung-ho.

The couple made the decision to divorce recently and Lee had her legal representative submit the documents to Seoul Family Court Monday afternoon. A friend named "K" told a reporter, "They have lived apart since their two children went to the U.S. to study six years ago. Their love for each other faded because of that prolonged separation."
