The actors Shin Mina and Kim Woo Bin, once a high-profile long-term dating couple in the entertainment industry, officially announced their marriage next month, announcing the birth of a top-star couple, and wedding-related content for the two has been released one after another, sending fans' expectations to a peak. In particular, the reason why Doh Kyung Soo (EXO D.O.) has been mentioned as the top candidate for the celebratory song recently surfaced through a broadcast, heating up online discussion.
#. Dec. 20 private wedding… "master of ceremonies · officiant · celebratory song all undecided"
Agency AM Entertainment on the 20th said, "With the trust built over a long time, the two decided to become each other's partners," and announced the marriage. The wedding will be held Dec. 20 at the Shilla Hotel in Jangchung-dong, Seoul, held privately with only family from both sides and a small number of acquaintances in attendance.
Regarding rumors of a premarital pregnancy, they drew the line, saying "untrue."
Also, OSEN reporting found, "Other than the date and place, all elements are still undecided. The master of ceremonies · officiant · celebratory song have not been decided," is the agency's official position. But among fans, expectations like "Lee Kwang Soo as MC? Doh Kyung Soo for the celebratory song?" are already quietly rising.
#. "Kyung Soo, play your song!"… a hint from Kim Woo Bin spotted on Kong Kong Pang Pang?
The source of the expectation was the Dec. 21 broadcast episode of tvN variety show Kong Kong Pang Pang, the Mexico road trip edition. While choosing music in the car, Kim Woo Bin directly asked Doh Kyung Soo, "Kyung Soo, play your song."
The next song was Doh Kyung Soo's "Popcorn." The three loudly sang along to the highlight section, raising the mood, and Kim Woo Bin, smiling brightly to the song, especially exclaimed, "Oh, I love it!" As soon as this scene aired, online reactions exploded with "Is the celebratory song 'Popcorn'?" and "The lyrics are perfect for a wedding, aren't they?"
Actual lyrics of Doh Kyung Soo's "Popcorn" include 'The scene from the first day we met / Like the blinkers over my eyes / Every moment of you looks beautiful.' The story that Shin Mina and Kim Woo Bin first met during an advertising shoot and began their romance overlaps neatly, giving more momentum to the Doh Kyung Soo celebratory song theory.
#. Shin Mina "My favorite wedding dress is 'Tomorrow With You'"… topic of conversation ahead of the wedding
On the 25th, Shin Mina drew attention through Harper's Bazaar Korea by naming the modern dress from the tvN drama "Tomorrow With You" as the wedding dress style that left the deepest impression among the wedding dresses she had worn. Shin Mina said, "Wedding dresses are always flashy or feminine, but the modern and simple dress I wore then actually stood out more and was more memorable."
Recently, as the wedding approaches this video has resurfaced, prompting reactions such as "It really feels like the bride-picked wedding dress" and "It suits a bride with great taste."
#. Finally revealed, the "handmade wedding invitation"… picture by Shin Mina, text by Kim Woo Bin
In addition, on the 27th, Shin Mina's hairstylist shared images of the couple's wedding invitation on social media and conveyed congratulations. The invitation features a neat line drawing expressing the groom · bride in a charming, sentimental design. The bride's drawing delicately depicts a tiara · earrings · dress, and the groom is drawn with a bow tie and neatly combed-over hairstyle.
One side of the drawing read "picture Shin Mina · text Kim Woo Bin," revealing that the engaged couple made the invitation themselves. Fans sent congratulations with comments like "The drawing is pretty and the handwriting is neat and handsome," "Their sensibility shows through," and "Ten-year dating sensibility exploding."
Despite the agency's explanation that neither the celebratory song nor the master of ceremonies has been decided, the chemistry between Kim Woo Bin and Doh Kyung Soo shown on Kong Kong Pang Pang and the romantic lyrics of the song "Popcorn" have combined online with posts like "Doh Kyung Soo celebratory song reserved," "Isn't this a hint from Kim Woo Bin?" and "If Lee Kwang Soo is MC · Doh Kyung Soo sings, it will be a legendary wedding" being posted one after another.
Adding the story that Shin Mina stayed by his side during his nasopharyngeal cancer treatment has led to reactions saying "More dramatic than a drama."
