Ok Taecyeon's private wedding photos circulated online, sparking controversy over invasion of privacy. In particular, criticism has continued from fans after reports that the non-celebrity bride's face was even exposed.
Ok Taecyeon held a wedding with his longtime partner on the 24th at the Shilla Hotel's state banquet hall in Seoul. The ceremony was held as a private event with only family and close acquaintances invited, and it was reported that thorough consideration was given to protecting the bride's privacy since she is a private citizen.
In particular, fellow group member Hwang Chan-sung served as master of ceremonies that day, and 2PM members performed congratulatory songs, showing their loyalty and drawing attention.
However, afterwards photos presumed to be from the wedding venue rapidly spread primarily on Chinese social media and online communities. Some posts included scenes of the wedding viewed from outside a hotel room window, accompanied by explanations that a guest had accidentally taken and uploaded the photos.
The problem is that the bride's face and scenes from the ceremony were captured relatively clearly in the process. The purpose of a private wedding was nullified, and criticism is growing that the portrait rights and privacy of the non-celebrity bride were violated.
Netizens reacted uncomfortably, saying, "It's something to celebrate, so why take and upload photos secretly," "The non-celebrity spouse should be protected," "This is nuisance, not fandom," and "Crossed the line."
Ok Taecyeon acknowledged the relationship in 2020 and continued the relationship for nearly 10 years, and last year he personally announced his marriage news and received many congratulations. The precious day after a long relationship is left with regret as it has turned into a controversy over rude photography.
