Actors Shin Min-a and Kim Woo-bin, one of Korea’s most beloved long-term celebrity couples, are officially tying the knot next month — and every new piece of wedding-related content is sending fans into a frenzy. From first looks at the wedding dress to their hand-drawn invitation, interest in the couple’s big day is higher than ever. Meanwhile, speculation over their wedding singer is heating up thanks to a surprising TV moment involving EXO’s D.O. (Do Kyung-soo).
December 20: A Private Wedding at Shilla Hotel
On November 20, AM Entertainment confirmed that the two stars are getting married after years of trust and partnership.
The wedding will take place on December 20 at Shilla Hotel in Jangchung-dong, with only close family and a small circle of friends attending.
The agency stated that rumors of a premarital pregnancy were “completely unfounded.”
They also clarified that aside from the date and venue, the host, officiant, and wedding singer have not been decided.
Still, fans can’t help but imagine scenarios — including joking predictions such as Lee Kwang-soo as MC and D.O. as the singer.
Did Kim Woo-bin Hint at D.O. Singing the Wedding Song?
The speculation began on the November 21 broadcast of tvN’s “Kong Kong Pang Pang”, filmed in Mexico.
Inside the car, Kim Woo-bin casually asked:
“Kyungsoo-ya, play your song.”
The track that followed? D.O.’s “Popcorn.”
The trio joyfully sang along, and Kim Woo-bin was especially enthusiastic, exclaiming:
“Ah, this is so good!”
The moment instantly went viral, with fans asking:
- “Is ‘Popcorn’ the wedding song?”
- “The lyrics are literally perfect for a wedding.”
- “Did he just spoil the first dance song?”
Indeed, the lyrics — “Every moment of you looks beautiful, like the day we first met” — match the couple’s real-life love story, which began on a commercial shoot years ago.
Shin Min-a Reveals Her Favorite Wedding Dress
Adding to the excitement, Shin Min-a recently appeared in a Harper’s Bazaar Korea video where she revisited memorable looks from her career.
She chose the minimal, modern wedding dress from the drama “Tomorrow With You” as her personal favorite, explaining:
“It wasn’t fancy or typical, but simple and modern — and that made it stand out.”
The clip resurfaced online following the wedding announcement, with fans commenting:
- “Feels like she’s choosing her real wedding dress.”
- “She has such elegant taste.”
Their Hand-Drawn Wedding Invitation: A Sweet Personal Touch
On November 27, Shin Min-a’s hairstylist shared a photo of the couple’s wedding invitation on social media — and it quickly went viral.
The card features:
- A simple, elegant line illustration of the bride and groom
- Shin Min-a’s delicate drawing
- Kim Woo-bin’s handwriting
A small caption on the card reads:
“Drawing by Shin Min-a · Text by Kim Woo-bin.”
Fans reacted with emotion:
- “Their vibe is so them — simple and beautiful.”
- “10 years of love captured on a card.”
- “Even their handwriting is perfect together.”
The Wedding Everyone is Rooting For
Though nothing has been confirmed about the wedding program, the unexpected “Popcorn” moment on Kong Kong Pang Pang sparked massive anticipation. Fans are imagining everything from D.O. singing the wedding song to Lee Kwang-soo hosting — a dream lineup given the couple’s long-standing friendships in the industry.
With Kim Woo-bin’s recovery from nasopharyngeal cancer and Shin Min-a’s well-known devotion during his treatment, many say their wedding feels:
“More romantic than a drama.”
As December 20 approaches, excitement for one of Korea’s most anticipated celebrity weddings continues to grow.
