Broadcaster Seo Dong-joo will become a bride in June.
Seo will hold a wedding ceremony today, June 29, at a wedding hall in Seongnam, Gyeonggi Province, officially tying the knot with her boyfriend who is 4 years younger.
Previously, Seo was married for the first time in the U.S. in 2010 and divorced in 2014. Since then, she has consistently expressed her thoughts on remarrying through broadcasts, revealing her dating status on the TV CHOSUN variety show 'Now Alone' aired last July.
Shortly after the news of her dating was made public, reports emerged that Seo would be getting married on June 29 of this year. A representative for Seo noted, "Seo is currently preparing for marriage with her non-celebrity boyfriend," adding, "The wedding date is scheduled for mid-next year." Seo also personally shared the news of her remarriage, stating, "Because my partner is a non-celebrity, there are sensitive aspects I can't discuss in detail, and I ask for your understanding."
Seo revealed through various broadcasts that her boyfriend is "4 years younger" and "he is 183 to 184 cm tall." She shared that her nickname for him is "doggy," saying, "He seems like a puppy; he resembles a retriever, so I started calling him 'doggy.'" She also discussed their first meeting, stating, "We met when a group of acquaintances was together, and at that time, we didn't exchange numbers and continued to meet with several people. After a while, we exchanged contact information. However, my boyfriend liked me first." Furthermore, it has recently come to light that her boyfriend works in the management industry and is currently an executive at the agency of Jang Sung-kyu, generating considerable attention.
In particular, before the wedding, Seo purchased a single-family house worth 1.2 billion won in the redevelopment area in Chang-dong, Dobong District, and is currently living there with her boyfriend after remodeling. She specified that she prepared her wedding items with the help of her mother, Seo Jeong-hee, and her boyfriend, Kim Tae-hyun, and has been sharing her newlywed life and preparations for marriage through her social media accounts and her YouTube channel 'Ddo-Dong.'
Amid this, just 4 days before the wedding, on June 25, Seo unveiled unpublished wedding photos on her social media account, expressing her excitement with, "Only 4 days left till the BIG day. I’m so nervous."
Today, amid many congratulations, Seo will ring the wedding march and embark on a new beginning. The ceremony will be hosted by voice actor Nam Do-hyung, and musician From will sing a congratulatory song to bless the couple's future. Given the couple’s consistent displays of affection, fans are also sending messages of support.
Meanwhile, Seo completed her Juris Doctor program at a law school in the U.S. and obtained her qualification as a U.S. attorney. Currently, she is working as a foreign partner attorney at a domestic law firm. She is also the daughter of broadcaster Seo Jeong-hee and the late Seo Se-won, appearing in variety shows such as SBS 'Gol Dae-rin Geunyeodeul' and Netflix 'Devil's Plan,' thereby establishing her career as a broadcaster.
