[TV Daily Reporter Hwang Seoyeon] Minwoo of the Shinhwa group is getting married today. On March 29, he will hold a private ceremony in Seoul with his 11-year-younger partner, Ami Lee, a third-generation Zainichi Korean, attended by only family and close friends. Fellow Shinhwa members Jin and Andy will host the event and perform congratulatory songs. Minwoo joins the ranks of married Shinhwa members, being the fourth after Eric, Jin, and Andy. Last year, he broke the news to fans through a handwritten letter, and their relationship has developed from friends to lovers since they first met during Shinhwa's Japan tour in 2013. Through his appearances on KBS2's 'The Return of Superman', he garnered attention by sharing their journey of marriage, childbirth, and adoption. He adopted a 7-year-old daughter from Ami's previous marriage and recently welcomed their second daughter.

Minwoo's marriage reflects both the significance of the group Shinhwa and his personal growth. Shinhwa has been a central figure in the South Korean music industry for a long time, and the personal lives of its members greatly influence their fans. Minwoo's announcement of his marriage can serve as a bridge for fans to connect with his genuine self.

Moreover, with his marriage, Minwoo has embraced the role of raising two daughters, thereby creating a complete family. This situation sheds light on the modern-day meanings of marriage and family, delivering a positive message to many fans. His personal journey emphasizes a more profound image through this mature choice of marriage.

Lastly, Minwoo's wedding reaffirms the special bonds shared with his Shinhwa members. The support from Jin and Andy, who are hosting the ceremony, adds to the brightness of his new chapter, while fans express their joy and congratulations on social media, celebrating his happy moments.
