Dongho, a former member of boy band U-Kiss, publicly spoke about his sudden marriage in an interview with local media on Monday.

“It has been about a year and a half since I met my girlfriend. Coincidently, we both wanted to get married at an early age,” said the 22-year-old. “Actually, we wished to tie the knot earlier, but our parents suggested that we take our time.”

He added, “Although many people might consider it a sudden decision, we have been preparing for the occasion carefully for a long time. I don’t think we need to prove our love, in a situation where we decided to get married. I love her so much.”

Dongho debuted as a member of six-member boy group U-Kiss in 2008, but opted out in 2013. He is to marry his girlfriend on Nov. 28.

According to insiders in the entertainment industry, he has been working as a DJ since then.

Further details will be announced after the couple’s wedding photo shoot.
