SEOUL – After dating for more than eight years, South Korean actress Lee Da-hae, 39, and singer Se7en, 38, have tied the knot in a wedding attended by K-pop and K-drama stars.
The glitzy event last Saturday at luxury hotel The Shilla Seoul had a guest list which included many members from boy bands – BigBang’s Taeyang, Daesung and G-Dragon; Super Junior’s Heechul, Leeteuk, Eunhyuk, Donghae and Kyuhyun; and former Super Junior member Kangin.
Other guests included girl group 2NE1’s CL, Minzy and Dara; K-drama actors Lee Soo-hyuk and Choi Sung-jun; producers Teddy Park and Kush; and celebrity chef Baek Jong-won and his wife, actress So Yoo-jin.
Many of the celebrity guests were labelmates at YG Entertainment alongside Se7en, whose real name is Choi Dong-wook.
Taeyang, singer Gummy and girl group S.E.S.’ Bada performed songs at the celebration, which was hosted by comedians Kim Joon-ho and Jo Se-ho.
The couple later posted a series of photos from the lavish celebration and thanked their well-wishers, with the bride writing: “I would like to express my sincere gratitude to all the people who congratulated me, and the guests who cried and laughed with me at the ceremony.”
In one of the photos, she is seen adjusting a pair of white lace and mesh heels from Singaporean shoe brand Charles & Keith’s bridal collection. The shoes retail at $85.90. On her head was a tiara from French jeweller Chaumet.
Singer CL also posted a series of happy reunion photos with her former labelmates, including Se7en, and wrote: “Congratulations on your marriage and I love you.”
Se7en, a show-business veteran who made his debut 20 years ago, and Lee, best known for her role in K-drama My Girl (2005), announced in March that they were getting married.
Their relationship was made public in 2016, when South Korean media broke the news that the pair had been secretly dating for a year.
