The TV Chosun program 'Joseon's Lover' aired footage of the wedding on the 3rd, showcasing the beautiful ceremony for Kim Tae-won's daughter and son-in-law.
Kim Tae-won meticulously planned the traditional ceremony, pouring his heart into creating a memorable occasion for the newlyweds.

While his daughter was getting ready, Kim Tae-won and his wife watched her with affectionate gazes, reflecting on the passage of time.
"I never imagined this day would come," Kim Tae-won shared, his voice filled with emotion. "Now she's beginning to understand the world, to know the presence of parents. It's the moment she finds someone she loves more than her mom and dad. My daughter is doing work that follows in my footsteps. The fact that life is that connection, that's where the emotion comes from."
He fondly recalled a past memory of collecting ten teddy bears for his daughter when she was younger, illustrating his enduring love and care. His wife added, "My daughter said it was hard to see herself growing old. She's only seen herself as a baby, but then you grow old together past thirty. She hadn't considered that. Now she understands that feeling."
Upon seeing his daughter in a stunning hanbok after her makeup, his son-in-law was captivated, stating, "I was breathless. She looked so perfectly beautiful. I don't think I'll ever forget it."
The bride appeared as the traditional wedding procession began, finally feeling the reality of her marriage. Kim Tae-won remarked, "She looks more elegant than in a wedding dress," his voice catching as he felt a lump in his throat.
As he took the microphone for his congratulatory speech, Kim Tae-won expressed, "She has been by my side since the day she was born until now. It's a precious connection that words can't describe. I hope you both understand the importance of maintaining your boundaries and realize you are one."
His daughter shed tears upon hearing his heartfelt words. Kim Tae-won, visibly moved, responded, "What will I do if you cry?" but concluded by saying, "Meeting Devin (son-in-law's name) is a blessing," wishing his daughter a happy future.
Netizens reacted with touching comments, saying things like, "Kim Tae-won's daughter's wedding ceremony was truly moving, you could feel the father's sincerity," and "The traditional Korean wedding was so beautiful."
