On the January 12, 2025 episode of SBS’s Running Man, the cast had their New Year fortunes read. At the time, Kim Jong-kook received a particularly striking prediction about his love life.
According to the tarot specialist, “This will be the year you finally overcome your marriage PTSD. Your love fortune will explode in the second half of this year.” The reader also added, “You’ll buy a new home that feels right and meet a destined partner. Your romance luck is very strong, but you actually want to be the one who receives the confession.”
Shocked by the reading, Kim Jong-kook confessed, “I’ve never confessed to anyone in my entire life!” The tarot master then teased further, saying, “Your romance fortune is concentrated in the second half of 2025. When there’s no woman, there’s none at all, but when they appear, two will show up at once.”
Now, months later, this fortune has drawn fresh attention after Kim Jong-kook officially announced his marriage. Through a heartfelt message on his fan café, the singer shared: “To my fans, who have believed in me, supported me, and stood by me for such a long time, I wanted to be the first to let you know. I’m getting married.”

He continued, “This year marks my 30th debut anniversary, and instead of making the album I wanted, I’ve created my other half. Please congratulate and support me. The wedding will be held soon, in a small and quiet ceremony with family, relatives, and a few close friends.”
With the resurfacing of his tarot reading, many fans are calling it a “fated moment”—a prediction that lined up almost perfectly with his real-life marriage announcement.
