She explained, “I first met Shin Dong-yup through the past variety show ‘Kiss & Cry’, and my husband Ko Woo-rim’s frequent appearances on ‘Immortal Songs’ naturally led to a closer relationship.” Upon hearing this, Yoo Jae-suk expressed surprise at Shin Dong-yup's role as the officiant, reaffirming their bond.

Furthermore, Kim Yuna candidly revealed her concerns regarding contact information when sending out wedding invitations.

I’ll be there for everything from the first birthday celebration onwards,” eliciting laughter.

Kim Yuna and Ko Woo-rim, a member of the crossover group Forestella, tied the knot in October 2022.
