On the 27th, Choi Yeon-soo posted on her social media, "I think there may be people curious since I haven’t said much after the article came out, but I have been holding back as I was carefully considering the situation."
She stated, "I will marry at the end of September. My partner is a kind-hearted and dedicated person I have known for a long time. I decided to marry seeing their sincerity expressed in both words and actions. I would appreciate it if you view us with warm eyes."
