Comedians Kim Jun-ho and Kim Ji-min were named on the 'Comedian Couple' No. 25 list. They began the second chapter of their lives with a grand wedding celebration attended by about 1,200 guests.
Kim Jun-ho and Kim Ji-min held their wedding on the 13th at 6 p.m. at the Grand InterContinental Seoul Parnas in Samseong-dong, Gangnam, Seoul.
The wedding was held privately, attended only by family, relatives, and close friends. The event was hosted by Lee Sang-min, who has collaborated with Kim Jun-ho on shows such as SBS's 'My Little Old Boy' and 'Dolsing Fourmen,' while singers Byun Jin-seop and Gummy performed.
About 1,200 guests attended the wedding. Previously, Kim Jun-ho revealed that he had reserved 1,200 guests in a variety show. The Grand InterContinental Seoul Parnas, where the wedding took place, is a five-star hotel with a hall that can accommodate up to 940 guests. Previously, actors Han Hye-jin and soccer player Ki Sung-yong, as well as singer-actor Lee Seung-gi and actress Lee Da-in, also held their weddings at the same venue.
Kim Jun-ho and Kim Ji-min acknowledged their relationship in April 2022 and started dating publicly. After three years of public dating, marriage was naturally mentioned, and Kim Jun-ho and Kim Ji-min brought it up on entertainment programs, which eventually led to fatigue among the public as time passed. In a radio program ahead of their wedding, Kim Ji-min noted, "Since we proposed on 'My Little Old Boy' last January, it feels like everyone in the nation is preparing for our wedding together. When the scandal broke, it became an unavoidable relationship, and since we've been repeatedly talking about marriage, I feel sorry for the public as it seems to be causing fatigue. We will marry soon."
All three broadcasting company's comedians gathered at the wedding. Comedians from MBC, such as Lee Young-ja and Son Heon-soo, along with KBS comedians Yoo Jae-suk, Park Jun-hyung, and Ahn Young-mi, were present. SBS comedians Yoon Taek and Kim Jae-woo were also spotted. Additional guests included Kim Seung-hye, Kim Ji-hye, Jung Jong-cheol, Park Sung-kwang, Lim Woo-il, Kim Jun-hyun, Yoo Min-sang, Kim Soo-yong, Oh Ji-hun, Jung Tae-ho, Song Eun-i, Kang Jae-jun, Lee Eun-hyung, Kwon Jae-gwan, and actress Kang Ye-won, as well as DJ DOC's Kim Chang-yeol.
As Kim Jun-ho entered, the guests erupted in admiration, saying, "This makes no sense!" Kim Ji-min walked down the aisle holding hands with Kim Jun-ho's close friend Kim Dae-hee. The couple greeted the guests with a 90-degree bow before tying the knot and starting their life together as a married couple.
Unlike the common practice of going on a honeymoon immediately after the wedding, Kim Jun-ho and Kim Ji-min have decided to postpone their honeymoon briefly to focus on their careers. Kim Jun-ho is preparing for the 13th Busan International Comedy Festival, while Kim Ji-min is filming for tvN's 'Kim Chang-ok Show Global' in the U.S., thus delaying their honeymoon.
In a lavish venue, Kim Jun-ho and Kim Ji-min, surrounded by approximately 1,200 guests, began the second chapter of their lives, pledging their love and faith to each other. All eyes are on the delightful moments they will share moving forward.
