'LABOUM' alumna Yujeong to marry this winter after yearlong preparations — Who is her fiancé?

From the driving force behind “Journey to Atlantis” to finding a lifelong partner

Yujeong, 34, the former leader of girl group 'LABOUM', will marry this winter. The news marks a significant new chapter for the singer, who won fans with her signature fresh charm and steady vocals before leaving the group.

Yujeong officially announced her marriage on the morning of the 8th by posting a carefully handwritten letter on her 'Instagram' account. “I met a wonderful partner with whom I’ve decided to spend the rest of my life, and we plan to build our future together,” she wrote, sharing the happy news with fans first.

She expressed deep affection and trust for her 'fiancé', whose identity has been kept private. “He cherishes me like a daughter and makes me feel every day how loved I am,” Yujeong wrote. “He is a good person who makes me feel at ease and supported whenever we’re together.” The couple reportedly spent the past 'year' quietly preparing for the wedding. Out of consideration for her fiancé, who is not a public figure, they have kept specific details about him private.

Yujeong debuted in the music industry in 2014 as 'LABOUM'’s leader and made her mark with hits including 'Journey to Atlantis' and “AALOW AALOW.” “Journey to Atlantis” became especially popular among South Korean military personnel and later made headlines by surging back up the music charts. Her career continued to move forward after she left the group in 2021. She currently serves as the main host of Defense TV’s 'Consolation Train' and TBN Traffic Broadcasting’s 'TBN Project', demonstrating her strong skills as a presenter.

At the end of her letter, Yujeong wrote, “Just as you supported my new beginning five years ago, I would be truly grateful if you would once again support my 'new life' with warm hearts.” She expressed her enduring affection for her fans. Congratulations are pouring in from across the entertainment world as she embarks on the 'second act of her life'—from dependable idol-group leader to wife and professional host.
