In December 2022, the longtime couple ranked fifth on Entertainment Company Plus’s list of “celebrity couples most likely to marry next year.” Kim Woo Bin and Shin Min Ah first met during a commercial shoot in 2014 and confirmed their relationship in 2015. By the time of the ranking, they had been together for seven years.
Their love story deepened when Kim Woo Bin was diagnosed with nasopharyngeal cancer just two years into their relationship. During his battle with the rare illness, Shin Min Ah was by his side, providing unwavering support. After a 2.5-year hiatus, Kim made a full recovery in 2019 and returned to the public eye, expressing his gratitude by saying, “I’m so happy to be able to return through films, thanks to everyone’s support.”
Following his recovery, the couple was spotted enjoying a vacation in Paris, drawing admiration for their enduring bond.
Now, fans are recalling Kim Woo Bin’s previous appearance on a variety program, where he expressed a personal dream: “I’d like to get married around the age of 35. I want to be a husband and a father who’s like a friend just like my parents were.” He even added humorously that he’d gladly take out the food waste and sort recyclables for his future wife.
Born in July 1989, Kim Woo Bin turns 36 this year in international age meaning he fulfilled his wish right around the age he had predicted. Shin Min Ah, born in April 1984, is currently 41.
On November 20, Kim Woo Bin shared a heartfelt handwritten letter on his fan café, writing, “I’m getting married. I’ve decided to build a family with the person I’ve spent so much time with. I hope you will support us so that our journey can be even warmer.”
Later that day, their agency confirmed the wedding news, stating that the couple “has built a strong foundation of trust through their long relationship and promised to be life partners.” The private wedding ceremony will be held on December 20 in Seoul, attended by family and close friends.
