A guide wire assembly (1) includes a guide wire (2) having a main body section (22), a front-end angular section (21) and a base-end angular section (23). The guide wire assembly (1) further includes a storage section for storing the guide wire (2) inside a hollow section of a substantially annularly wound pipe body (51). The base-end angular section (23) is arranged so that it is dynamically stabilized in elasticity, in a state in which a bent direction thereof is aligned with a direction of curvature of the pipe body (51). When the base-end angular section (23) passes through the pipe body as the guide wire (2) is delivered from the storage section (5), a state is maintained in which the bent direction of the base-end angular section (23) is aligned with the direction of curvature of the pipe body (51), and the direction of the front-end angular section (21) is maintained at a predetermined direction with respect to the storage section (5).
