Sim Gyu-deok and Lee A-young’s unexpected wedding tasting: Reserved for 6, but only 2 attended

Engaged couple Lee A-young and Sim Gyu-deok, known from 'Love After Divorce,' caught public attention after sharing an unexpected moment during a wedding menu tasting ahead of their marriage.

In the wedding preparation process, gatherings involving both families hold significant weight. A wedding tasting—where the couple samples the menu before the big day—is typically a time for families to dine together and share opinions. However, Lee's experience was different; a reservation made for six people ended up with only the two of them sitting at the table.

On the 10th, Lee shared the wedding menu tasting via her SNS. In the video, Sim is seen sitting at the table in a casual white T-shirt, tasting steak. While it appeared to be a typical tasting scene for an engaged couple, the family members expected to be there were nowhere to be found.

Lee added the caption: “They said they contacted my in-laws… Reserved for 6, but only the two of us are tasting.” Although she believed the reservation was made for six to include her future in-laws, only Sim and Lee appeared at the venue.

Ultimately, the reservation for six was reduced to a meal for two. The plan to taste the menu with family and discuss wedding preparations had fallen through. While Lee's caption conveyed her bewilderment, the moment also resembled a small, private meal for the couple.

For an engaged couple, a wedding tasting is more than just a chance to try food; it is a process for families to share opinions and strengthen bonds ahead of the ceremony. In that sense, this scene highlights the reality that wedding preparations do not always go according to plan.

The pair recently appeared on JTBC's 'Love War,' where they revealed various conflicts during their wedding planning. Following the broadcast, controversies surfaced regarding Sim's aggressiveness, while Lee also faced online debate regarding her financial views.

Despite these challenges, the two are continuing their wedding preparations and sharing glimpses of their daily lives. This latest update regarding the unexpected tasting has once again drawn public interest.

As the meal intended for the family became a private moment for two, attention is focused on how Lee and Sim will proceed as their wedding approaches.
