Former Gugudan Soyee marries lawyer, sings wedding song

Soyee, formerly of the group Gugudan, has tied the knot with lawyer Yoo Jong-min. After making a name for herself as an idol, Soyee built a successful life as an influencer following the group's disbandment, and now opens a new chapter as a spouse.

On the 16th, Soyee announced her marriage by sharing photos and videos from the ceremony via SNS. On this day, she held her wedding ceremony and officially entered into marriage with Yoo.

The released photos capture Soyee dressed in a pure white wedding dress. She and her husband enjoyed the joy of becoming a married couple, looking at each other with happy smiles and sharing sweet kisses. Even amidst the glamorous wedding scenes, the way the two looked at each other fully conveyed the excitement of a new beginning.

What particularly caught attention was that Soyee personally sang the congratulatory song at the wedding. Drawing on her experience performing on stage as a singer, she added special meaning to her ceremony by gifting a song to her husband. Rather than simply receiving congratulations from others, she presented a moment of blessing to her husband and guests with her own voice.

On the day of her wedding, Soyee expressed her gratitude to fans and acquaintances with her characteristic warm and calm demeanor.

She first expressed relief regarding the weather, saying, “I was worried it might be too hot, but I'm glad it's cooler than expected today,” before adding, “I feel bad that I couldn't personally take care of every single person, and I am just grateful that you could be here with us.”

She continued with a warm greeting to those attending the wedding, adding, “Let’s have a joyful and happy time together with smiles later. I will see you in a little bit.”

Along with this, Soyee released wedding pictorials taken with her husband in Vancouver, Canada. Against the exotic scenery, the images of the two leaning on each other and meeting each other's gaze captured both the excitement of lovers before marriage and the comfort of a couple after becoming one.

For Soyee, marriage is another turning point, marking the conclusion of a page in her entertainment career and the transition to a new life.

She made her debut in the music industry in 2016 as a member of the girl group Gugudan. Gugudan drew attention at the time for its unique concept and the individuality of its members, and Soyee met the public while active as a member of the team. However, after undergoing various changes during their activities, Gugudan officially concluded its group activities in 2020.

The disbandment of an idol group is also a moment that demands a different choice from the members. This is because they must find their own paths after the period of moving together under the name of a team. Following the group's activities, Soyee also expanded her field of activity as an influencer, communicating with the public in her own way.

And now, separate from one pillar of her career in the entertainment industry, she has begun a new chapter of life called marriage.

She has transformed from an idol receiving applause from fans on stage to a bride who steps onto her own wedding stage to gift a song to her most precious person. In particular, the scene of her choosing and singing the congratulatory song herself adds meaning in that music is more than just a profession for her, but a way to express her most important moments.

What draws more attention than the view of a glamorous celebrity wedding is the simple and natural happiness shown by the two. From the wedding pictorials shot against the beautiful scenery of Vancouver to the way they look at each other at the wedding venue, and even the sight of Soyee singing the congratulatory song herself, every scene shows that a new season has begun in one person's life.

As nearly 10 years have passed since her debut with Gugudan, Soyee is now set to write her life under a different name.

Following an entertainment career that began with the applause of fans, Soyee has now chosen a life shared with her loved one. Her voice, which used to sing on stage, became a song blessing her own marriage on this day.

Congratulations from colleagues and fans continue to pour in for Soyee's new beginning.
