On May 19, Choi Jun Hee uploaded several clips from her wedding day on Instagram along with the caption, “Why is my wedding filled with so many tears and runny noses? These are words full of love that I’ll look back on whenever life gets hard.”
The released videos featured congratulatory messages from family members and close acquaintances. Her older brother Choi Hwan Hee appeared first, saying, “I never imagined a day like this would come, but there’s nothing more I could wish for than for you to live happily. I hope you and your husband stay happy together for a very long time.”
Lee Young Ja then shared a heartfelt message, saying, “It would have been even better if your mother were here, but I’m congratulating you even more in her place.” Meanwhile, Lee So Ra became emotional the moment she said, “Jun Hee,” and was unable to continue speaking.
Bbaek Ga also offered warm encouragement, saying, “You have uncles and strong aunts by your side. If anything happens, your uncles and aunts will help you, so live happily.” His words added to the emotional atmosphere of the ceremony.
Hong Jin Kyung appeared visibly emotional as well, saying, “I cried so much since last night that my eyes are swollen.” She added, “If there have been more days of tears until now, let there be more days of laughter from now on. Seeing your husband beside you truly puts my heart at ease.” Turning to the groom, she tearfully asked him to “make sure our Jun Hee smiles a lot.”
Jung Sun Hee initially appeared cheerful while congratulating the bride, but eventually broke down in tears. She said, “I don’t even deserve to cry because I wasn’t part of Jun Hee’s life.” She continued by praising Jun Hee, saying, “Watching your life, I truly thought you were an amazing woman and person,” before warmly telling the groom, “You’re also a wonderful person for recognizing her worth.”
Later in the video, Kim Won Hee and Lee Mi Eun shared that many “aunts and uncles” had prayed for Jun Hee’s happiness. Toward the end, Uhm Jung Hwa and Lee So Ra reappeared to leave sincere congratulatory messages.
What made the video even more emotional for viewers was the fact that Lee Young Ja, Lee So Ra, and Jung Sun Hee had also appeared in footage from Choi Jun Hee’s first birthday party years ago as close friends of the late Choi Jin Sil. In that old video, Choi Jin Sil had said, “I’ll invite everyone again when our Sumin (Choi Jun Hee) gets married someday,” making fans feel her absence even more deeply.
Netizens reacted emotionally to the clips, commenting, “Choi Jin Sil must have been such a wonderful person to leave behind such caring aunts and uncles for her daughter,” “You can really feel how sincerely everyone loves Jun Hee,” and “It feels like they’re helping fill the empty space left by her mother.” Others added that Choi Jin Sil would likely be very proud watching over her daughter from above.
Meanwhile, Choi Jun Hee married a non-celebrity man 11 years older than her at a wedding ceremony held in Seoul on May 16. Her brother Choi Hwan Hee reportedly took on the role traditionally held by the father of the bride, while entertainer Jo Se Ho hosted the ceremony.
