Shinji and Moon Won Say “I Do” In a Star-Studded Wedding
Shinji’s wedding to Moon Won had everything, the glam, and the nostalgia, as the couple sealed their love in Seoul.
It’s celebration time for K-Pop fans as Shinji of veteran K-pop group, Koyote, has officially tied the knot with singer Moon Won. The two exchanged vows on Saturday despite nationwide opposition, in an intimate yet grand ceremony at the Raum Art Center in Yeoksam-dong, Gangnam-gu, Seoul. The wedding celebrations were attended by the couple’s friends, family members and some of Korea’s biggest entertainment names.
The romantic outdoor ceremony witnessed a long list of celebrity guests, and the celebrations were quick to become a topic of conversation over the internet as photos and videos from the celebration made the rounds on social media. Television personality Boom and Comedian Moon Se-yoon had reportedly hosted the ceremony while singers Baek Ji-young and Ailee had given congratulatory performances. Their performances created a buzz online when Baek Ji-young got emotional while singing ‘Two People,’ originally by Sung Si-Kyung.
That was not all, the wedding also saw all the members of the veteran group reunite for the occasion, creating a meaningful moment for the fans of the group that debuted in 1998. Members Kim Jong-min and Bbaek Ga had also offered heartfelt speeches to mark the joyous occasion before the two surprised the guests with a performance on ‘You Were Impressive’ also originally by Sung Si-kyung.
Additionally, singer Chae Rina was among the several entertainment figures present at the wedding. Broadcaster Park Seul-gi had shared photos from the wedding, sharing snippets of the couple’s sweet moments on social media, one of which captured the couple with top MC Yoo Jae-suk.
The couple had previously announced their wedding last year with a series of pre-wedding photos that had sparked a deep conversation and even a controversy with regards to the age-gap between the groom and the bride. However, with the wedding on May 2, the couple has moved past all challenges and have begun a new chapter in their life together.
