Actor and 2PM member Ok Taec-yeon married his noncelebrity partner of 10 years in a private ceremony Friday, featuring a full reunion of the K-pop group.
The wedding took place at the Shilla Hotel in central Seoul. The bride is four years his junior. The couple invited only family members and close friends to the event.
All members of 2PM attended the wedding and performed a congratulatory song. Bandmate Hwang Chan-sung served as the master of ceremonies. The wedding makes Ok the second member of 2PM to marry, following Hwang.
Ok publicly acknowledged the relationship in 2020 after casual photos of the couple leaked online. Five years later, last November, he announced his marriage through a handwritten letter.
"I have promised to spend my life with a person who understood and believed in me for a long time," Ok said at the time of the announcement. "We'll walk through life together, always supporting each other."
Ok also publicly expressed his affection for his partner at the KBS Drama Awards that same year. After winning a Best Actor award, he publicly declared, "I love you, Ji-hye."
Ok debuted with 2PM in 2008 and has since solidified his dual legacy as a singer and actor. He has appeared in television series including "Cinderella's Stepsister," "Dream High," "Vincenzo" and "Secret Royal Inspector & Joy."
