Male vocal group Noul's Kang Gyun-seong will be a groom in October. The bride-to-be is actress Yoo Ha-jin, 14 years his junior.

On the morning of the 4th, the agency said in an official statement, "Kang Gyun-seong will marry Yoo Ha-jin on Oct. 30 at a location in Seoul," adding, "The two promised a future based on deep trust and affection for each other. Kang Gyun-seong decided to marry out of deep conviction and love for the bride-to-be, and he will continue activities as the head of a household and as an artist going forward," the agency said.

The bride-to-be who captured Kang Gyun-seong's heart, Yoo Ha-jin, was born in 1995, making her 14 years younger than Kang Gyun-seong, who was born in 1981. Yoo Ha-jin debuted in 2019 in the MBC drama "Spring Night" and has since appeared in the drama "Welcome," "Fly, Butterfly," and "Love is for Suckers," as well as the films "Turn: The Street" and "Body Collection.zip," steadily building a filmography as a skilled actress. She has also been active in various fields as a beauty brand advertising model.

In particular, the two are reported to have nurtured their love through a shared faith. Like Kang Gyun-seong, who was considered the entertainment industry's "icon of premarital chastity," Yoo Ha-jin is also a devout Christian, and the two are said to have built deeper trust within their faith.

Earlier, Kang Gyun-seong personally shared the happy news with fans via his personal social media account the day before. He said, "I met a precious person I want to walk with for the rest of my life," and added, "I am grateful to 'Noulbit' (the fandom name) for always supporting me unchanged and sharing the precious times of my life. Please continue to watch over us warmly and bless us; that would be a great strength," leaving an excited comment about his marriage.

The surprise wedding announcement was followed by a warm wave of congratulations from colleagues in the entertainment industry. Singer DinDin sent an enthusiastic congratulation, "Wow hyung!!!!! Congratulations!!!!!" and broadcaster Jang Seongkyu also shared his joy, saying, "Congratulations, our hyung." Singer Sleepy also left a comment saying, "Huge congratulations," and comedian Park Na-rae, who is on hiatus from activities, pressed like to offer her congratulations, drawing attention.
