YouTuber Kwak Tube (real name Kwak Jun-bin) announced his marriage just a month after confessing his romantic relationship.
His agency, SM C&C, stated on the 8th, "Kwak Jun-bin will marry in October. The bride is a non-celebrity, and the two have promised to become lifelong partners after building trust and love through a long relationship."
He added, "While preparing for the wedding, a precious new life came like a blessing. Since it is still an early stage that requires stability, I would like to share that they are delicately and gratefully waiting for their new family."
Kwak Jun-bin's wedding is expected to be held privately with only family and close friends in attendance.
Earlier, Kwak Jun-bin revealed last month through his YouTube channel that he was dating a non-celebrity girlfriend who is five years younger. At that time, when asked if he had a girlfriend, he immediately acknowledged, "Yes, I do," and when asked about marriage plans, he replied honestly, "She is a regular person, and I am considering marriage," surprising those present.
Kwak Tube also shared about their dating style, saying, "We mainly spend time at home. Moving was not because of that, but we do go to nice restaurants often," and expressed his affection by saying, "We met through an introduction, and even though I am often abroad for work and have an irregular schedule, she understands me well."
Kwak Tube also directly shared the news of his marriage and second child through his YouTube channel. He explained, "I started dating my girlfriend before I became famous. We met before and dated, but as we both got busy, we drifted apart. After some time apart, we met again," and added, "Meeting again has become a greater comfort to each other, and especially my girlfriend, though much younger than me, always boosts my self-esteem and helps me grow in confidence. She is really quiet and introverted, but she has always lifted me up and cared for me, so I think I've talked about her in almost every broadcast since we got back together."
Initially, he was preparing to marry in May next year, but with the arrival of a precious life, he moved the date up to October. He expressed, "Since I was young, I wanted to start a family, my own family. Especially, I had a strong longing for being a father. Of course, I grew up with really good parents, but I also wanted to be a good parent like my father and mother. Our family may not have had much money, but we lived very harmoniously. So, I always thought that I needed to be a good father and a good husband, and I felt that I could marry if I were with this friend, which is why I decided to marry. And I have also become a father."
Finally, Kwak Tube said, "I apologize for informing you so late, and once I get married, I will think more about what to do next. I have now been a travel YouTuber for six years, which has been fun but also a long time, and I want to show a more mature and diligent side as someone's husband and father. I am very grateful for everything so far, and I hope for your continued support. Thank you."
