Singer Kim Jong-kook is finally joining the ranks of married men. Reports say he is set to hold a wedding with his non-celebrity fiancée at a location in Seoul on September 5. There are ongoing speculations that his quick marriage might be for the purpose of having children.
Kim Jong-kook shared the marriage news directly through the official fan cafe "Papitus" the day before. He expressed his honest feelings saying, "I have always prepared in my heart for the day when I would write and post something like this, but now that I actually have to write it, I'm more nervous and shaken than I imagined. I am getting married." He added, "I plan to keep the wedding as small as possible and hold it quietly with family and close friends."
With the wedding announcement, fans are keenly focused on the identity of the fiancée and the wedding date. The agency stated, "We cannot disclose any information regarding Kim Jong-kook's marriage or his future wife beyond what he has shared directly in the fan cafe. Since it is a private matter, we don't know the details," keeping their remarks brief.
However, attention is being drawn to the relatively swift preparations for the wedding. In particular, a video titled "How far are you going?" recently uploaded on Kim Jong-kook's YouTube channel "Jim Jong-kook" is being revisited. In the video, he is seen moving to undergo a sperm test with his siblings and says, "I am getting close to 50, so I think I shouldn't be too late." He expressed his willingness for natural conception. When asked by a cast member if he was considering natural conception or seeking assistance from a hospital, Kim Jong-kook replied, "It would be great if natural conception happens. It would make it easier for my wife. If possible, with the power of strong sperm!" revealing his honest thoughts.
Alongside the marriage news, netizens have reacted in various ways, saying, "Finally getting married... I can understand if the reason is the quick pace is due to plans for natural conception," "Kim Jong-kook is now at an age where he has to consider realistic plans. I support him," "From a 6.2 billion won newlywed house... truly a national treasure-level financial ability," and "While the wedding news is good, given his statements about natural conception, I hope the pregnancy also goes well as a fan."
Thus, the long-standing rumors of "Kim Jong-kook's marriage" have turned out to be true, and Kim Jong-kook was the first to inform fans through a handwritten letter, effectively ending the speculation. Fans and netizens are congratulating his new beginning and showing great interest in the upcoming wedding on September 5.
Meanwhile, the wedding will be held quietly with only family, relatives, and a few acquaintances invited.
