Shin Ji, a member of the group Koyote, has introduced her fiancé, singer Moon Won, to her colleagues Kim Jong-min and Baekga in a video that has been released, leading to concerns among Koyote fans about Shin Ji's marriage. There are doubts about Moon Won's sincerity. In response to a fan's comment expressing concern, Shin Ji reacted with 'thank you.'
On the 2nd, Shin Ji posted a 'meeting the parents' video featuring Moon Won, Kim Jong-min, and Baekga on her YouTube channel. In the video, Moon Won said of Shin Ji, 'I didn't know she was such a famous person. I just saw her as a woman. I thought I have to live diligently and not make mistakes with this friend.'
He then shared a shocking confession about his divorce. Moon Won said, 'I was married once and have a lovely daughter,' adding, 'My ex-wife is raising her, but we communicate and try to pay attention to everything for the child.'
At Moon Won's sudden confession, Baekga said, 'I need to go to the bathroom,' leaving the scene.
In response, Shin Ji expressed, 'I think it could be disappointing if oppa (Kim Jong-min) or Baekga learn about it through a third party,' adding, 'Many people don't know much about Moon Won right now, but as he becomes better known, I thought it would be better for us to disclose it directly to avoid any disappointment when someone else talks about it.'
'I actually liked his sense of responsibility,' she noted. 'He is not someone who ignores the situation; he tries to take care of his child and shows a sense of responsibility, which I thought was good for me. It made me feel that he could show that side to me too.'
In response to Shin Ji's remarks, Baekga encouraged, 'If you two are happy, I don't think it's my place to worry.' Kim Jong-min also said, 'I hope you two are happy. What we wish for you is just one thing: don't worry about others, just focus on each other.'
Moreover, Kim Jong-min and Baekga expressed their affection for Shin Ji after Moon Won's comment about getting 'housewife dermatitis' from washing dishes, saying, 'Buy more items,' and 'I'll handle it all myself.'
However, after the video was released, there have been voices among netizens questioning Moon Won's sincerity. Criticism arose regarding his failure to disclose his divorce history and that he has children before developing a romantic relationship, along with the fact that he claimed not to know Shin Ji, the main vocalist of Koyote, who has been popular since debuting in 1998.
In particular, a person claiming to be an acquaintance of a side close to Moon Won, who knows about his past, has appeared, commenting, 'Check the reasons for the divorce,' which has led to responses suggesting, 'Think carefully about getting married again.'
Shin Ji has replied to the fans' reactions with 'thank you.' One fan commented on Shin Ji's Instagram, 'Sister, I'm a fan. You really need to choose your man wisely. Dating and marriage are different. Anyway, I respect your judgment and hope you are blessed and find a good path.' Shin Ji attracted attention by replying, 'Thank you.'
Shin Ji debuted as the main vocalist of Koyote in 1998 and has released numerous hit songs, including 'Pure Love,' 'Heartbreak,' 'Passion,' 'Blue,' and 'Disco King.'
The fiancé, Moon Won, born in 1988, is 7 years younger than Shin Ji. He debuted in 2012 with 'Let's Live Together' and met Shin Ji when he appeared as a guest on the radio program 'Single Bangle Show,' which she hosted.
