Super Junior’s Lee Sungmin has tied the knot with his fiancée Kim Sa Eun and the hashtag #HappyWeddingSungmin has been trending on Twitter worldwide.
The SJ fandom have begun sending their congratulatory messages such as, “I can’t believe he’s the first one getting married in Super Junior! Congrats!” “Sungmin oppa… we don’t want to send you off yet, but we must for your happiness. We love you!” and, “Congratulations Sungmin and Sa Eun, may the rest of your lives be filled with pure happiness.”
There have been reports saying that Kim Ryeowook, a member of the 13-group boy band will be singing a congratulatory song for the married couple. Sungmin and Ryeowook have spent ten years together and have just celebrated their 9thanniversary together this year.
Sungmin and Sa Eun were co-stars in the musical ‘The Three Musketeers’. They went public about their relationship by September and both the couple’s agencies confirmed that they were indeed dating and are in the beginning stages of their relationship.
It was in October when the 28-year old singer himself confirmed the then-rumors, writing a heartfelt letter.
“Hello, this is Sungmin. Where should I start... I thought about what to say so many times starting with the first sentence. After writing and erasing and repeating this process several times... I'm more reminded of the faces and voices of those I'm thankful towards... and I'm delivering this letter with a heavy and cautious heart.
Everyone, I have met a great person and I will be getting married on December 13. My heart aches as I think of everyone who must have been very shocked and surprised about the sudden news.
I'm sorry that I made you find out through articles first while I was contemplating how to first deliver the news to E.L.F, who love me and are a dear friend to me, before anyone else...
To be honest, before I delivered this news, there were times that I had to withstand alone as I felt conflicted with the thought of my own decision while thinking of everyone whom I've walked this path with up until now. Rather than it being a fear about the decision I've made, I was more worried about whether everyone that I'm thankful towards would become too shocked or hurt by this news, as it is a situation that they've never gone through before [as a fan]. Although I'm a bit late, I'm gathering the courage to deliver the news myself from all the love and trust you've given me.
I want to say how much I love and feel sincerely thankful towards everyone who has stood by my side like a shadow and watched me grow and cheered me on.
I'm also thankful to everyone who has helped me up until now and the members and the agency who trusted and respected my decision. I will strive to become a Sungmin who continues to work hard in the future to return the love you have shown me.”
Congratulations to Lee Sungmin and Kim Sa Eun!
