Doh Kyung Soo's wedding song falls through, Lee Kwang Soo fills the void as master of ceremonies
With actor Kim Woo-bin and Shin Mina's wedding a day away, roles of close friends in the entertainment industry are beginning to take shape one by one, drawing attention. In particular, the differing moves of members who showed close friendship on the tvN variety show "Kong Kong Pang Pang" are generating buzz.
Kim Woo-bin and Shin Mina will hold their wedding at a location in Seoul on the 20th. The two met while filming a commercial, acknowledged their relationship in 2015, endured together through Kim Woo-bin's illness, and after more than 10 years of public dating they will become husband and wife.
As news of their marriage spread, attention focused on who would perform the wedding song and who would serve as master of ceremonies. Given the close friendship they showed through the "Kong Kong Pang Pang" series, which featured Kim Woo-bin and his close friends Lee Kwang Soo, EXO's Doh Kyung Soo, and Kim Ki-bang, predictions continued that one of them would take on an important role.
Expectations grew that Doh Kyung Soo, EXO's main vocalist, might sing the wedding song, but it ultimately fell through. Doh Kyung Soo's schedule conflicted because he had to attend the "2025 Melon Music Awards (MMA)" with EXO members at Seoul's Gocheok Sky Dome starting at 5 p.m. on the wedding day. In a recent interview he honestly admitted, "Honestly, my heart hurts, but I think EXO's schedule comes first," revealing that the planned wedding song "Popcorn" had been canceled, adding to the disappointment.
Meanwhile, on the 18th it was reported that actor Lee Kwang Soo would serve as master of ceremonies for Kim Woo-bin and Shin Mina's wedding, filling the empty spot. Lee Kwang Soo's agency, King Kong by Starship, told OSEN, "Lee Kwang Soo will host the two actors' wedding."
Lee Kwang Soo, who showed fantastic chemistry with Kim Woo-bin and Doh Kyung Soo in the "Kong Kong Pang Pang" series, will stand on stage as the closest friend to share in the two's new beginning. Although the wedding song fell through, Lee Kwang Soo stepping in as master of ceremonies fills that gap and gives the event added meaning.
Despite the disappointment of Doh Kyung Soo's absence, with Lee Kwang Soo confirmed as master of ceremonies, Kim Woo-bin and Shin Mina's wedding will leave another scene of loyalty and friendship. Amid the members' differing paths, congratulations sent from their respective places are expected to give the couple great strength.
Meanwhile, Kim Woo-bin and Shin Mina plan to hold a private wedding on the evening of the 20th, inviting only family and close acquaintances.<
