Reality television stars Young-soo and Soon-ja, who met on the 25th season of I Am SOLO, have announced their upcoming December wedding and completed their marriage registration just two months into dating, sparking massive online attention.
Season 25 Reality Stars Young-soo and Soon-ja Announce December Wedding
Romance reality television has produced many memorable pairings over the years, but few have moved as swiftly from the screen to the altar. Young-soo and Soon-ja, participants from the 25th season of the ENA and SBS Plus program I Am SOLO, have taken the ultimate step after a whirlwind courtship. Both born in 1991, the pair originally met during the show’s 25th season, which aired in 2024. After filming wrapped, they stayed in touch and maintained a platonic friendship before their relationship shifted into romance.
That shift happened when they officially began dating with marriage already on their minds. The couple announced their wedding date as December 5 during an appearance on producer Nam Gyu Hong’s YouTube channel Chonjang Entertainment TV. The chosen date holds profound personal significance for the groom. December 5 marks exactly two years to the day since Young-soo first chose Soon-ja during the initial impression selection while cameras rolled.
Legal Marriage Registration Completed Two Months Into Courtship
The timeline of their romance caught fans by surprise. Just two months after starting their relationship, the couple decided to formalize their union. On October 10, they made up their minds to wed, immediately paying the deposit for a wedding hall and arranging formal meetings with their parents. Rather than waiting for the ceremony, the pair moved straight to legalities, completing their paperwork and obtaining witness and consent signatures from both sets of family members.
Young-soo shared the milestone with followers on social media, posting a photograph of the official document displaying their real names—Kim Min-su and Seo Jeong-won—alongside the caption, All the signatures have been collected.
He added further context to the family involvement on his account, writing, With the permission of all my family. A family we will be together with forever.
Netizens quickly flooded the posts with celebratory messages, calling them a perfect match while dubbing them the most shocking couple to emerge from the dating franchise.
Social Media Reaction and Pregnancy Speculation Surrounding Wedding Photos
When Young-soo posted professional wedding portraits featuring the couple in formal attire—with Young-soo in a beige suit and Soon-ja in an off-the-shoulder white gown—the images instantly drew widespread discussion online. Alongside the photos, Young-soo added a lighthearted caption noting, I am a bit taller.
However, followers quickly focused on specific visual elements within the frames.
Soon-ja posed holding a large white bouquet positioned directly in front of her midsection, leading some online observers to speculate about a possible premarital pregnancy. Neither Young-soo nor Soon-ja addressed the rumors directly, and commentators noted that holding large floral arrangements is standard practice in wedding photography. Amid the online chatter, Young-soo engaged warmly with well-wishers, joking that the secret to winning over a beauty involved Driving 110 km back and forth every day,
and promising a devoted lifetime to his bride as they count down the weeks to their December ceremony.
