Kim Jong-kook has been generating buzz online with his surprise marriage announcement, but curiosity is rising online about the identity of his bride-to-be, as no personal information about his girlfriend has been released.
Speculations are rife on the identity of his fiancée since the revelation, with some netizens claiming that his bride-to-be is a “38-year-old woman from LA who is the CEO of a cosmetics company.”
Many stated that this has been first revealed by Kim’s close friend Cha Tae-hyun on various entertainment shows, albeit jokingly, with the actor commenting about how the singer “goes to LA often.”
In 2020, a netizen who claimed to be a college student living in LA revealed that they had seen Kim buying coffee with a Korean-American woman there.
There are also indications that Kim has been hinting at his wedding preparations on several entertainment programmes recently, including the purchase of an expensive home.
The 49-year-old surprised many on 18 August when he suddenly decided to announce that he is getting married.
“The wedding will take place sometime soon on a scale that is not too big with family, close friends, and a few acquaintances. Thanks to the fans who have been my greatest strength for such a long time, I am getting married and taking on a new challenge in life again.”
