Kang Kyun-sung to marry dancer with 14-year age gap in October... "A connection from 9 years ago bears fruit"

Comedian Kang Kyun-sung is bearing the fruit of marriage by reuniting with a connection from 9 years ago. Appearing on MBC's 'Radio Star', Kang Kyun-sung shared the news that he will hold his wedding on October 30th and revealed the special meeting with his fiancée and the wedding preparation process.

A connection met 9 years ago with a 14-year age gap leads to a fateful reunion

The connection with his fiancée revealed by Kang Kyun-sung goes back 9 years. At the time, Kang Kyun-sung, who was thirty-seven, first met the dancer fiancée, who was twenty-three. He stated that due to the large age gap of 14 years and his own feelings of inadequacy at the time, they could not continue the relationship and instead only kept up with her news through SNS. Kang Kyun-sung recalled that they had conversations while eating at the time, but he did not contact her because he felt guilt due to the age difference.

The reunion happened through an introduction by an acquaintance. The person the acquaintance introduced, saying "Shouldn't you get married?", was the very same dancer he met 9 years ago. Upon meeting again, the two communicated well and their relationship developed, leading to a marriage promise just a few months after meeting. Kang Kyun-sung described his fiancée as "someone I can grow with, and someone who allows me to let down my guard."

"I will protect it this time"... Excitement and values ahead of the wedding

Ahead of the wedding, Kang Kyun-sung also mentioned the values he shares with his fiancée. He cited the shared value regarding 'purity' as one of the reasons for hurrying the marriage. Referring to past experiences, he said, "Since I met a friend to marry, I feel I should protect it this time with this friend." He added that because these values align, he is feeling great excitement in the process of deciding to marry. Kang Kyun-sung expressed his excitement, saying that once the wedding day passes, "it's okay to crumble completely," and that the process of enduring until that day feels like a true honeymoon.

The wedding is scheduled for 7 PM to manage physical condition. Instead of leaving for the honeymoon immediately after the ceremony, they plan to stay at a hotel for a day to build memories. Kang Kyun-sung conveyed his excitement, saying, "They say it's an era where people enjoy things in advance before marriage, but our anticipation for the wedding day is so great."

From furniture sponsorship to a small wedding atmosphere, a heartfelt proposal

Kang Kyun-sung also shared the specific proposal process he prepared for his bride. He defined the core of the proposal as 'making the bride look her most beautiful.' To achieve this, after sending the bride to a shop in the morning, he took her to a studio where he could take photos with sponsored furniture to conduct a surprise event. During the proposal, Kang Kyun-sung read a letter to the bride and knelt down to present a ring.

At the scene, the bride's friends and Kang Kyun-sung's acquaintances were hiding and offered congratulations with applause, creating a small wedding-like atmosphere while taking photos with the bride wearing a mini dress. Kang Kyun-sung also plans to sing for his fiancée on the wedding day. He shared his wedding romance, saying, "I used to sing for others, but now I am preparing a song to sing for myself." However, he stated that for the song to be sung at the wedding, he is considering even meticulous details, such as adjusting ad-libs so that the elders are not surprised.
