Lee and Choi broke the news of their engagement on Instagram on Monday. A translation of Lee’s post published by Soompi reads: “As we have been in a relationship for eight years, this might not really be surprising, but I’m not sure why I feel so shy… I thought a lot about how to tell you about this. This upcoming May, we promised to develop our long-time relationship into marriage. I’m still more used to calling him my boyfriend, but I will become a good wife who gives much strength and is more considerate to this person who has reliably protected my side and given me great happiness and who will now become my partner forever.”
“I think it will make us really happy if we can get married with love and blessings from all of you,” Lee continued with smiling emoticons interspersed with her words. “I will also repay all of your love in the future by impressing more as an actress and as a wife of a family!! Thank you.”
Choi’s post was similar, reading: “2023 marks 20 years since my debut. I think this would not have been possible without the love of fans who always show unchanging support. I am really grateful and thankful. Today, there is joyful news that I want to share with you first. I promised marriage on May 6 with my girlfriend Lee Da-hae who has been with me through the ups and downs and has always embraced my lacking self with love for the past eight years.”
