Kim Jun-sik Announces Marriage on Wedding Day, "With the Person Who Endured Hard Times With Me"

Musical actor Kim Jun-sik (32) delivered surprise marriage news on the day of his wedding. Rather than announcing the identity of his bride-to-be or the wedding date in advance, he prepared for the ceremony quietly and revealed the joyful news himself through a handwritten letter. In particular, he moved many by describing his bride-to-be as the person who endured his difficult times by his side and instilled confidence in him whenever he wavered.

On the 12th, Kim Jun-sik posted a handwritten letter on his social media (SNS) and announced, “I am getting married today.” Although it was a sudden announcement, the letter contained deep gratitude and affection for his bride-to-be. He introduced her as “a truly thankful person who endured the hard times by my side, gave me confidence when I doubted my passion, and soothed the flames when they burned too intensely.”

For an actor standing on stage, passion is the driving force that allows them to continue their path, but at times, it can cause them to waver in the face of an uncertain reality or become a force that pushes them too far ahead. Kim Jun-sik shared that his bride-to-be was someone who encouraged him when he hesitated and calmly soothed him when he became overly heated. Rather than a flashy wedding announcement, he first spoke of the time the two had spent together and what they meant to each other.

He also explained the reason why he announced the marriage news late. Kim Jun-sik stated, “I had many worries about how to deliver this news,” expressing that he wanted to visit those around him in person to share the news. However, as he was preparing a small-scale wedding, he felt cautious, and ultimately ended up revealing the news only on the day of the wedding. The sudden announcement contained the circumstances of his intention to prepare for the wedding quietly with those close to him.

He also expressed his wish to share the joy with those who shared their hearts with him. “Still, I definitely! wanted to share this joyful news and be together with everyone who shared their hearts with me,” he added, “It would be more than happy if you could bless the two of us today.” His attitude of sincerely conveying gratitude to those who have supported him, rather than making a grand announcement of the wedding, drew attention.

Born in January 1994, Kim Jun-sik debuted in the 2016 independent film ‘Humanity's Eternal Theme’. Since then, he has built stage experience appearing in musicals such as ‘Forbidden Music’, ‘Escape from a Desert Island’, ‘Park Yeol’, ‘The Fiction’, ‘And So On Song’, ‘The Ostrich Boys’, ‘Punk’, ‘Resistance’, and ‘Yeon's Letter’. He has also continued his career as an actor moving between musicals and plays, appearing in plays such as ‘The History Boys’, ‘Posh’, ‘The Just’, and ‘Iolaus’.

His stage activities will continue even after the marriage. Kim Jun-sik is set to appear in the musical ‘Broken Numbers’, which opens on November 18. It marks a moment where he opens a new chapter in his life while simultaneously preparing for a new work as an actor.

While it was sudden news delivered to the public on the day of the wedding, for Kim Jun-sik, it is a meaningful moment of making a new start with the person who has stayed by his side for a long time. Attention is also focused on what kind of performances he will show on stage in the future, as he welcomes the person who believed in his passion and sometimes soothed him as his life partner.
