Since the beginning of this year, news of stars' marriages has been coming in one after another. In particular, the number of stars making surprise marriage announcements via social media without any dating rumors is increasing, surprising fans every day.
In January, model Irene made a surprise announcement that she will marry a non-celebrity businessman on May 23. He stated, "Today, I want to share with you the moment my life completely changed, and I'm writing this to share my feelings. This precious story has been quietly kept near my family and close ones for a long time. I always liked sharing my life and journey with you, but this time it was a moment I wanted to keep close to my heart."
Yoonha also announced her marriage directly through a handwritten letter on the 5th. She wrote on her official fan cafe, "I have met a reliable partner in life and am getting married. Thank you for sincerely worrying about my well-being for a long time and constantly sending me love. Thanks to that warm love, I was able to overcome the wandering and tormented days of my youth. I deeply appreciate it," adding, "Now I will support and encourage your life as a stronger and more stable Yoonha. Please take good care of the new days ahead."
Yoonha's agency, C9 Entertainment, stated, "Yoonha will hold a private wedding with her non-celebrity fiancé at the end of March with just family and close friends. We hope for lots of congratulations for Yoonha."
A day later, on the 6th, Kang Eun-bi and Lee Seung-yoon also made surprise marriage announcements, drawing attention. Singer Lee Seung-yoon posted a long handwritten letter on his official fan cafe to personally announce the marriage news.
He said, "On a day in March when seasons overlap, I am getting married. Knowing it would be sudden news, I wanted to be the first to tell you, so I picked up the pen." He continued, "I met someone nine years ago. In that time, a lot has happened, and at times we have shared deep sadness, small happiness, great waves, and overwhelming dreams together, crying, laughing, and sustaining each other."
Kang Eun-bi also announced her marriage on the 5th of April through a long post and wedding photos on her social media. She began, "During a time when I was wandering, I met a friend in 2008 and thought vaguely that I might be able to build a good family with this friend as I observed myself changing positively. However, my anxieties and unstable environment always acted as obstacles. But this friend consistently stayed by my side, waiting for me and creating a place of peace in my heart like a silent tree."
Subsequently, it was revealed that Kang Eun-bi's fiancé is Byun Joon-pil, a former model. On the 7th, Kang Eun-bi acknowledged, "We have been dating without breaking up since 2008. It's true that we have been in a relationship for 17 years. We are both born in 1986 and attended the same department at Seoul Institute of the Arts."
Kang Eun-bi described Byun Joon-pil as "a friend and lover who has always watched over me like a shadow, unable to say even that he was my boyfriend. We never took the common couple photos. Although I am not a great or famous person, Joon-pil has always quietly watched over me, worried that he may interfere with my work."
