This might be the beginning of the end but I for one am thrilled to bring the news that the first Super Junior member to get married for realz will be Sungmin! Member Lee Sung Min, recently sporting a very unfortunate hair-over-eyes look for the “Mamacita” promotions, has confirmed the recent rumors that he will be tying the knot with his newly outed girlfriend Kim Sa Eun. She’s a fellow entertainer as well but active in musical theater, which is where the couple met while performing on the stage for the recent Korean revival of The Three Musketeers.
The couple will be tying the knot on December 13th which of course leads to the inevitable questions of whether it’s a shotgun marriage or not. The answer is that it’s none of our business so congrats to the happy couple! It was a pretty hectic news day when the rumors first surfaced including the inevitable SM Entertainment is “checking on it” with Sungmin while Kim Sa Eun’s agency actually denied it at first. Eventually Sungmin capped all the back-and-forth by releasing a letter to his fans confirming the upcoming wedding, explaining that he met a wonderful woman he wants to spend his life with, and asking for his fans understanding and support.
While Sungmin is the first to get hitched in real life, his fellow Super Junior members who have been pretend married on We Got Married might have some useful advice for him on newlywed life. Kangin was married to Lee Yoon Ji in the first season of WGM while the Leeteuk–Kang Sora pairing was insanely popular with fans and most recently Heechul and Puff Guo tried out a cross-border marriage for the global edition of WGM.
I’m sure the preferred choice for beleaguered SME is for the status quo on all its idol groups, guys and girls, but Sungmin getting married probably ranks pretty low on the scale of the ticking time bomb of “what shocker is next from K-ent”. Congrats to Sung Min and Kim Sa Eun, but please never ever bring back the Mamacita-era hairstyle ever again. I’m so excited to see all the SuJu boys at the wedding and hopefully Kibum will show up as well!
The drama gods giveth and the drama gods taketh away, and in this case within…
So the two big male lead period C-dramas that were rumored to air in December…
The holidays are done and hopefully January is off to a great start for everyone!…
So it feels like every popular drama C-actress and C-actor has a drama currently filming,…
So this drama was announced last year with big excitement since it was the pairing…
So this is a big casting news so rather frustrating to have zero anything substantive…

It's nice to hear that! I feel happy for him. On a side note, that hair is just is so bad.. I can't even. Can he see? Isn't it awkward to talk to him face to face? So many questions...
LOL i originally thought you were referring to the first pic's hairstyle, which I quite like, but nope - scrolled down to the actual hairstyle.. Why. Who lied to him and told him that looks good? :)
All the best to the couple!
My k-ent source confirmed that more idols will leave SME soon but hasn't identified Sungmin as one of them, yet. I was surprised that he would marry so early and a girl, on top of that. Marriage should occur because you were committed to and out of love, not because of family/friend/society pressure. Talk about the responsibility the child will have to bear from such an early age - "mommy and daddy had to marry because of me; i have ruined their lives because had I not been conceived, they would have led a different life". These are words someone once told me. Not saying that this case is a shotgun wedding too, though we'll know for sure in a few months.
Please don't tell me ANY of the Suju members are on this list. :(
if this is a pregnancy marriage, which we don't know, why the hell should any of this fall on the child.
mommy and daddy ruined their own lives, not only could they not keep their hormones in checks, they also failed to understand the basic working of birth controlled. If anyone should be upset about this situation its me for being saddle with two horny,unprepared bird brains.
Well...people are being extremely judgemental and getting on their high-horses and such...
"shotgun weddings"...."she is his beard"....
Are you talking about Sulli? Up to now the only one without any problems to SM are Shinee, at least I do hope so.
I am of a very STRONG OPINION that it is a shotgun wedding. I am happy for sungmin and in reference to future acknowledgement of the pregnancy post wedding applaud him for taking the manly route, and doing right by this lady. However, if Knetz are to be believed,and she approached him for the wrong reasons then I do not like her for sungmin. Sungmin is not my favorite, but i want Suju members to find true love.
Same here. I really truly want him to be happy, but things seem really weird with this girl and with her agency. They randomly released the dating news without consideration and proceeded to release contradicting statements regarding the marriage as well. Nevertheless, I wish him nothing but the best, and hope that Kim SaEun really didn't approach him for the wrong reasons.
What's the meaning of released news without consideration??
Why do fans do this to themselves?
Was he meant to ask for permission before marrying??
Laughs very hard
These are not boys, they are MEN. allow then to live their lives. Thanks
I thought it might be, but she's also 30 years old. So really, maybe she's just ready to get married.
Knetz = pressed Elfs who are too old to act like they are? lol, there's nothing wrong with her. Their story is not exciting at all and they've been dating quite a while. Seems like a natural thing to get married next. Most people his age are married.
Kim Saeun's rep said it's not a shotgun wedding, but they also said she wasn't getting married so whi know what to believe. I think there were also rumors that they had their wedding photos done in May.
It feels like the end of an era with all these scandals, and this is another nail in the coffin. Nevertheless, I'm happy that Sungmin has found someone to spend the rest of his life with. It'll be fun to see all the older generation idols married off.
Whether or not this is a shotgun wedding, it seems there is a prevalence of it in k-ent so my question to them is, does anyone believe in condoms and birth control?
K-idols in their vast majority are "blissfully" unaware of the consequences of unprotected sex. Most if not all female idols have aborted at least once. STD is an alien word to many. Besides, purchasing condoms puts you in a bad light, whatever your marital status. K-artists are bound to protect their image, thus why bother, some think.
if your manager can do the basic of purchasing birth control, what the hell is he/she good for.
"Most if not all girl idols have aborted at least once"
That's a very strong statement.
Are you in k-ent? Genuinely curious
how can you say they have aborted at least once.... It's like also saying they have hidden babies somewhere.... Please don't make such strong statements....its totally wrong and over the top
How can he see with that hairstyle?
Sungmin's hairstyle is actually a wig that he wore for promotions.
What are the chances that both Kim Ki Bum and Han Geng will attend the wedding?
That would be wonderful! I wonder if that's what Heenim meant with that cryptic tweet
Congratulations! As a long-time ELF I'm both excited, and worried. Off note, I love how everyone's WGM pictures are all awkward and cute, and then there's HeePuff *facepalm* Love both of them though!
It's too bad K-Elf already lost their minds and wrote him (yet another) letter for the reasons why they can't support him. They are trending that Sungmin needs to leave and other nonsense.
They've been supposedly been living together since February and did their wedding shoot in May. The only reason this all came out was because fans tracked down the ACTUAL wedding hall and date that he was registered for...they stay doing the most
Yeh, I saw a tweet. Six of his fan-sites shutdown overnight.
