Euijin received a Japanese proposal in Hokkaido

Uijin, a member of the group Sonamoo, is preparing to get married. On June 12, Uijin personally announced on her social media that she received a proposal from her Japanese boyfriend in Hokkaido, Japan. More eye-catching than the simple marriage announcement was the tone of surprise she expressed. For Uijin, who once seemed to view marriage as something that would never happen in her life, revealing that she was proposed to in Japanese on Japanese soil came as a sudden yet heartwarming scene to her fans.

Bouquets and Rings: The Moment Uijin Shared Personally

The released photos capture Uijin holding a bouquet against the backdrop of Hokkaido's scenery, along with scenes of her smiling with her fiancé. A photo of her hand wearing a ring was also shared, showing that the proposal has led to actual wedding preparations. Uijin did not hide her happiness, writing briefly, "I got proposed to." The exact wedding date, location, and detailed information about her fiancé have not yet been disclosed. Therefore, this news feels less like a grand wedding announcement and more like a private confession shared first with her fans.

That aspect, in fact, reads as being uniquely Uijin. Although she has made a name for herself through stages and broadcasts over a long period, her post felt more like the everyday language of an individual rather than an official celebrity announcement. This is also what fans responded to. The way she conveyed the unexpected moment as it was, without over-packaging the major decision of marriage, created the warm tone of the news.

From Sonamoo to Hezz, and now Lua in Japan

Uijin's career cannot be summarized merely as the current status of a singer from a certain group. She debuted as a member of Sonamoo in 2014 and returned to the stage as a member of the project group Unity through the KBS2 idol rebooting project 'The Unit.' Later, in 2022, she began solo activities under the name Hezz. In essence, she has moved through girl group, project group, and solo stages.

Recently, she has been known to be continuing her band activities in Japan under the stage name Lua. This makes the fact that the proposal took place in Hokkaido, Japan, feel even more naturally connected. For Uijin, Japan is not just a travel destination or a one-time backdrop, but a space where her current work and life intersect. This is also why the marriage news does not remain a private matter but makes people curious about her next activities.

The Next News Fans are Waiting For

What was confirmed in this announcement is the proposal and the intention to marry. However, the wedding schedule, future activities in Korea, and specific plans for her band activities in Japan remain to be seen. For fans, there is now information to wait for along with their congratulations. What name she will use when she stands on stage again and at what pace she will continue her activities after marriage will be the next checkpoints. One thing is certain: Uijin, who has stood on stage under various names through Sonamoo and Unity, has once again announced a major life change first through her own words.
