Park Shin-hye and Choi Tae-joon will get married on January 22, 2022.

On November 23rd, Park Shin-hye's agency, Salt Entertainment, announced through an official statement, "Actress Park Shin-hye and Actor Choi Tae-joon will get married."

The agency said, "The two people, who have been dating each other since 2017, became a couple in some place in Seoul on January 22, 2022."

They added, "At the same time, they promised to be partners for a lifetime, and a precious life came to them in the process of preparing for marriage."

The agency asked for the fans' understanding, saying that it is difficult to say in detail because it is in a temporary initial state that needs stability.

Their wedding will be held privately in consideration of the families of both families.

A representative from the agency said, "We would like to express our deep gratitude to everyone who loves and supports the two."

On the same day, Actress Park Shin Hye also made an important announcement via her official fan cafe. 

Park Shin Hye wrote:

"Hello, this is Park Shin Hye.

The weather is getting chilly these days. I am wondering if you all are taking care of yourselves.

A while back, I found the first contract that I signed with my first agency 20 years ago. I was a 6th grader back then, and by my 2nd year in middle school, I held the career of an actress. Another 18-years have passed since then. Time sure flies.

So many people were with me through my youth, and thanks to your love and encouragement, I became an actress who showed you many sides of me through a range of projects. 

There were countless times when I was happy to be in front of the camera, but when there were also times that I struggled, it was the fans who gave me strength and courage. Just one or two words from you, telling me to be strong, were enough to make me stand back up.

That may be all the more reason why I am so nervous to bring you this news today, and in a sense, I'm concerned that you all will be greatly shocked. But I wanted you to be the first to find out, no matter what.

I am getting married to the person I have been seeing for a while now. He was my pillar of support for a long time, and he embraced the person Park Shin Hye with all of her lacking qualities, and so I am planning to start a life as someone's partner in marriage.

Furthermore, although I am hesitant to discuss this because it is still in its very early stages, while we began preparing for our marriage, a precious new life came to us. I wanted to tell you all so much. I promise to show you a good side of me even after I have become a member of my own family.

Finally, I want to thank you for loving me and supporting me even though I lacked in so many ways. It may take a while, but I'm going to do my best to return as an actress as soon as possible, without making you wait too long. 

Until then, please stay healthy, and I will bid you farewell for now."

Previously, actress Park Shin Hye admitted to her public relationship with her fellow actor Choi Tae Joon back in 2017. Now, according to her agency Salt Entertainment, Park Shin Hye and Choi Tae Joon will be holding a private wedding ceremony on January 22, 2022.

Congratulations to the couple!

NewJeans' Minji touched fans' hearts with a handwritten letter on her birthday — even while the group is currently unable to promote due to legal issues.

On May 7, Minji celebrated her birthday by sharing a heartfelt message on the group’s personal SNS account, which the members opened themselves to stay connected with fans.

Minji began her letter with honesty, writing, “I think I’m living a busier life than I expected. When I finally looked up, it was already May, and it was my birthday.”

She admitted that she had a lot she wanted to say, but her thoughts felt “messy.” Still, her message to fans was clear, “I just hope that I, our members, and Bunnies can all be happy. Happiness is the biggest goal in my life.”

Minji then opened up about her personal journey and struggles, saying, “I sometimes think that running toward my happiness by doing what I love might look foolish to others. But isn’t giving up your happiness now for the sake of a future that might not even come… too harsh on yourself?”

Despite everything, she ended on a hopeful note, “I really miss the times when we shared our feelings through the good music we made together. But I always look forward to what’s ahead."

She added, "We didn’t stop here, and we’re not going to stop! It might look like we’re standing still, but I believe we’re growing deeper.”

Her message comes during a difficult time for NewJeans. The group announced last year that they were cutting ties with ADOR, their original agency, after trust was broken. They later began working independently under the new name ‘NJZ’.

However, ADOR responded with legal action — claiming the exclusive contract with NewJeans was still valid and asking the court to stop the group from promoting or signing deals.

The court sided with ADOR and granted an injunction, forcing NewJeans to pause their activities. Their appeal was rejected, and they’ve now filed a second appeal.

Through it all, Minji’s message proves one thing — even when forced to stop, NewJeans' hearts are still moving forward.
