Comedian Kim Ji-min has begun the second chapter of her life by marrying Kim Jun-ho, but her 'close friend' Park Na-rae was nowhere to be seen. It is a disappointing moment, but it is reported that there is no 'rift' between the two.
Kim Jun-ho and Kim Ji-min held their wedding on the 13th at 6 p.m. at the Grand InterContinental Seoul Parnas in Samseong-dong, Gangnam-gu, Seoul.
The wedding was held privately, attended only by family, relatives, and close acquaintances. The ceremony was hosted by Lee Sang-min, who has worked with Kim Jun-ho on SBS' "My Little Old Boy" and "Dolsing Fourmen," and the celebratory songs were performed by singers Byun Jin-sub and The Ghost.
About 1,200 guests attended the wedding. Earlier, Kim Jun-ho revealed that they had made reservations for 1,200 guests on a variety program. The Grand InterContinental Seoul Parnas, where the wedding took place, is a five-star hotel, and the hall where the ceremony was held is reported to be able to accommodate up to 940 people. Previously, actor Han Hye-jin and soccer player Ki Sung-yong, as well as singer and actor Lee Seung-gi and actress Lee Da-in, also held their weddings at this venue.
Of the 1,200 guests, about 400 were reported to be celebrities. Attendees included MBC comedians Lee Young-ja and Son Heon-soo, as well as KBS comedians Yoo Jae-suk, Park Jun-hyung, and Ahn Young-mi. SBS comedians Yoon-taek and Kim Jae-woo were also spotted. Additionally, guests included Kim Seung-hye, Kim Ji-hye, Jung Jong-cheol, Park Sung-kwang, Lim Woo-il, Kim Jun-hyeon, Yoo Min-sang, Kim Soo-yong, Oh Ji-hun, Jung Tae-ho, and DJ DOC's Kim Chang-yeol.
However, Kim Ji-min's 'close friend' and likely recipient of the bouquet, Park Na-rae, was not seen. Park Na-rae had also not appeared during Kim Ji-min's wedding photo shoot. She learned on the day of the shoot that a bag she had prepared as a prop was stolen. Ultimately, Park Na-rae, unable to attend the wedding shoot, expressed her heavy heart, and Kwon Jae-kwan and others said, 'Na-rae had a robbery that day,' expressing their sympathy.
Park Na-rae not only missed the wedding but also did not attend the reception. The person who caught Kim Ji-min's bouquet was none other than Han Yoon-seo. Han Yoon-seo said, 'When Kim Ji-min was about to throw the bouquet, I waved my hands and said, "Don't catch it, don't catch it," but then posted a confirmation shot holding the bouquet, saying, "I have no plans to get married at all, and since no one who hasn't married is here, I ended up catching it. They say if you can't marry within six months, you'll never marry, so please let it be a superstition... Haha, but now I'm the only one left..."
While it is true that Park Na-rae did not attend the wedding, it was not because of a rift with Kim Ji-min. According to Park Na-rae's side, she could not attend due to unavoidable circumstances, and after explaining this to Kim Ji-min and Kim Jun-ho, she reportedly delivered a substantial congratulatory gift with regret. However, regarding the details of her absence, Park Na-rae's agency stated to OSEN, 'It's a personal matter, so it's hard to confirm.'
Recently, there have been quite a few instances where non-attending celebrities at weddings have been identified and rumors of rifts have been raised. Park Na-rae could have been a target as well, but she proactively blocked it to prevent unnecessary rumors. While it's true that there was an 'absence,' it is not a 'rift' between Park Na-rae and Kim Ji-min. We also look forward to hearing more about the delightful friendship between these two after the wedding.
