Former 'I Am SOLO' participant Soon-ja has married her partner following a romantic proposal on the 99th floor of the SIGNIEL hotel in Seoul. Although she did not form a final couple during the 20th season broadcast, the elementary school teacher announced her marriage after meeting her groom outside of the program.

Soon-ja, a participant from the 20th season of 'I Am SOLO', has officially joined the ranks of married women by holding her wedding ceremony. Although she did not form a final couple during the broadcast, she announced a new beginning after meeting her partner outside of the program. Following a moving proposal at a 5-star hotel, congratulations are pouring in for her happy news as she celebrates her actual wedding.

On the 18th, Jung-sook from the 20th season of 'I Am SOLO' shared photos on her personal channel with the message, "Our 20th season Soon-ja is getting married! Please congratulate her ❤️." The photos captured Soon-ja in a pure white wedding dress standing arm-in-arm with her groom. While the faces of the bride and groom were not revealed, the excitement of the special day was conveyed through the image of Soon-ja's back as she attended the wedding in her gown.

Soon-ja gained public attention appearing in the 20th season of the SBS Plus and ENA variety program 'I Am SOLO' in 2024. During the "Model Student Special" broadcast, she drew interest by introducing herself as an elementary school teacher. Although she did not form a couple during the final selection, she maintained connections with fellow participants after the show, and this news of her marriage was shared through her fellow cast member, Jung-sook.

In fact, Soon-ja had already shared several happy updates leading up to the wedding. This past July, she announced the news on her social media by posting wedding photos, stating, "I met a kind person, and I am getting married on a beautiful autumn day as we are colored by each other." Her confession of starting a new life with a kind person received congratulations and support at that time.

The romantic proposal from her groom also drew significant attention. Approximately two weeks ago, Soon-ja released photos and videos of her proposal received at the 5-star SIGNIEL hotel in Seoul, captioned "A record on the 99th floor." She expressed her feelings, saying, "Even though I realized immediately when told to come to SIGNIEL, it was a day of emotion, emotion, emotion."

In particular, Soon-ja stated she was moved by the fact that her groom prepared a surprise event despite his busy daily life. She explained, "My groom, who has been working without rest lately, was preparing this surprise in his spare time." She noted that even though she had anticipated the proposal, the time and sincerity his preparation represented were more moving than expected.

It was not just the luxurious venue that moved Soon-ja. She revealed, "Even though I had actually noticed everything, the six heartfelt letters he wrote and the beautiful video made my memories pass by like a panorama, causing a storm of tears." The memories they built together and the sincerity contained in the letters triggered her tears.

Soon-ja followed this by declaring, "My answer is YESSS!!!" and added, "I express my gratitude to my groom, who always tries to make me happy, and let's live happily together for a lifetime." The statement clearly shows her excitement for the upcoming marriage and her affection for her partner.

Having sought a connection on 'I Am SOLO', Soon-ja found her own love after the show and reached the fruition of marriage. Following the wedding photos and the proposal, news of the actual wedding ceremony has drawn continuous congratulations for her as she begins her new life. Attention is focused on what kind of daily life the couple, who shed tears over sincere letters, will build together as husband and wife.
