A representative long-term couple in the entertainment industry, Shin Mina·Kim Woo-bin, officially announced their marriage next month, heralding the birth of a top-star couple. With the wedding about a month away, interest is growing as it was revealed that detailed elements such as the emcee and wedding song have not yet been decided.
#. Agency, "private wedding in Seoul on Dec. 20"
On the 20th, the agency AM Entertainment announced, "The two decided to become each other's partners based on the trust they have built over a long time," and announced the marriage. The wedding will be held on Dec. 20 at an undisclosed location in Seoul in a private format attended only by family and acquaintances. Regarding speculation of a premarital pregnancy, they drew a line, saying, "Absolutely not."
Also, according to OSEN reporting, the agency's official position is, "Nothing has been decided except the date and location. The emcee, officiant and wedding song are all undecided."
Even so, fans were sending expectations that Lee Kwang Soo and Do Kyung Soo (EXO D.O.), who worked with Kim Woo-bin on the variety show "Kong Kong Pang Pang," might be candidates for the wedding song or emcee.
#. "Kong Kong Pang Pang" Mexico episode… when Do Kyung Soo's "Popcorn" played, Kim Woo-bin said, "I like it!"
On the episode of tvN's variety show "Kong Kong Pang Pang (Planting beans and laughter sprouts: overseas exploration)" broadcast on the 21st, Kim Woo-bin, Lee Kwang Soo and Do Kyung Soo's road trip in Mexico was shown. While playing music in the car, Kim Woo-bin asked, "Play Kyung Soo's song," and Do Kyung Soo played his own song "Popcorn."
The three sang along to the song's highlight and got very excited, and especially Kim Woo-bin smiled brightly with the lyrics and exclaimed, "Oh, I love it!" That reaction is understandable, because the lyric "the scene of the day we first met" overlapped with the couple's first meeting.
Do Kyung Soo's "Popcorn" contains lyrics such as, "the scene of the day we first met / the nervousness that wasn't really like me / a warm gaze like spring days
your every moment looks beautiful as if covered by a bean-sprout shell," full of fluttering feelings. Viewers reacted to these lyrics with comments such as, "It seems to recall the CF days when she first met Shin Mina" and "a look as if truly smitten."
In fact, Shin Mina and Kim Woo-bin first met during a commercial shoot and continued their relationship for 10 years, being regarded as a representative "long-running couple" in the entertainment industry.
#. "Wedding song also 'Popcorn'?"… Do Kyung Soo wedding song rumor "whispers"
After the scene in which Kim Woo-bin reacted so positively to "Popcorn" aired, online speculation naturally spread asking, "Then will Do Kyung Soo sing the wedding song?" In particular, the song "Popcorn" has lyrics like "excitement bursts," "smitten," and "happy like the day we first met," which fit well with a wedding concept, leading to opinions such as, "Wouldn't it be perfect as a wedding song?"
Although the agency still says, "The emcee, officiant and wedding song are all undecided," memories of the strong friendship and chemistry among Lee Kwang Soo·Kim Woo-bin·Do Kyung Soo shown on "Kong Kong Pang Pang" have raised expectations that the three may participate in the wedding in some way.
Since acknowledging their relationship in 2015, Shin Mina stayed quietly by Kim Woo-bin's side and received fans' support even during the long period of treatment after he was diagnosed with nasopharyngeal cancer. After 10 years of dating, as they face marriage, fans are sending expectations and congratulations with comments such as, "a couple truly smitten," "it's more dramatic than a drama," and "if Do Kyung Soo sings the wedding song, it will be legendary."
