Wedding trends have recently shifted. Instead of the somewhat traditional pattern of getting married after a romance is made public, an increasing number of cases are emerging in which celebrities marry suddenly without any prior reports of a relationship, or quietly hold their weddings and disclose them only afterward.

On the 12th, actress Kim Yong-ji shared the surprising news that she had gotten married just one day earlier. On the same day, musical actor Kim Jun-sik revealed that he was getting married that very day, drawing attention.

Kim Yong-ji held a private outdoor wedding on the 11th. Her romantic relationship had not been made public prior to the ceremony, and the groom is known to be a non-celebrity man. At Kim Yong-ji's wedding, Kim Go-eun, a classmate from the Korea National University of Arts, along with actors Bae Jeong-nam and Kim Bum, attended to offer their congratulations.

Entertainment industry colleagues also attended to celebrate her new beginning. Kim Go-eun, an actor known as a close friend and classmate from the Class of 2010 at the Korea National University of Arts, along with Bae Jeong-nam and Kim Bum, graced the occasion.

The wedding was also learned about through colleagues. On the 12th, Kim Go-eun posted photos of Kim Yong-ji's wedding scene on her social media. The released photos captured Kim Yong-ji and the groom holding an outdoor ceremony with a hanok in the background, and Kim Go-eun tagged Kim Yong-ji's social media account in the post. Bae Jeong-nam also shared a photo taken with Kim Yong-ji along with the caption "Congratulations on your marriage, Yong-ji," thereby revealing Kim Yong-ji's bridal attire on her behalf.

On the 12th, musical actor Kim Jun-sik posted a handwritten letter on his social media stating, "I am getting married today." Kim Jun-sik wrote, "My fiancée is a truly grateful person who has endured difficult times by my side, instilled confidence when I doubted my passion, and soothed the flames when I burned too intensely," adding, "I had much to consider about how to share this news. I wanted to visit each of you in person, but as we prepared for a small-scale wedding, cautious feelings took precedence, leading us to this day." He conveyed that he would be sharing news related to his wedding on the day itself.

The manner in which stars are getting married has recently taken on a different form.

Actor Koo Kyo-hwan had already registered his marriage with director Lee Ok-seop, with whom he had been in a relationship for 10 years, four years ago, becoming a couple without directly disclosing it. Recently, reports revealed that the two had actually married four years prior, drawing attention.

In July, news emerged late that "National Little Sister" actress Moon Geun-young had already gotten married. Moon Geun-young married musical actor Jung Pyeong, with whom she had been in a long-term relationship. It was reported that Moon Geun-young also did not hold a wedding ceremony but quietly proceeded with the marriage by having a meal with family members only. Subsequently, Moon Geun-young directly shared her marriage news through her personal account, stating, "I have gotten married. I met someone with whom I want to walk the path I had always walked alone, share the times I had worried about in solitude, and make each other laugh even over trivial matters."

Actor Ma Dong-seok also married Yeong Hwa-rye in 2021 but did not announce it, drawing attention when he directly revealed his marriage in 2022.

Actor Jang Dong-yoon also announced his marriage news without any reports of a romance with fellow actor Kim Seung-yoon, and got married last weekend.

As such, recent instances of stars quietly getting married rather than making grand announcements about their weddings are drawing attention.
