Kwak Si Yang & Lovelyz’s Yoo Jiae Are Getting Married — And Nobody Saw It Coming

No dating rumors. No paparazzi photos. No fan speculation. Kwak Si Yang and former Lovelyz member Yoo Jiae kept their entire relationship completely private — until today, when they announced they’re getting married.

Kwak Si Yang & Yoo Jiae: Announcement

On September 3, Kwak Si-yang’s agency 9ato Entertainment confirmed the news directly: Yoo Jiae and Kwak Si Yang will hold their wedding on November 28. The couple has reportedly been dating quietly for about a year.

Who Are They?

Kwak Si Yang has built a steady acting career since his 2014 debut in the film “Night Flight,” appearing in dramas like “Oh My Ghost,” “Alice,” “Lovers of the Red Sky,” and “Good Partner.” He’s set to appear next in KBS2’s upcoming drama “A Love Other Than Yours.”

Yoo Jiae debuted as a member of Lovelyz back in 2013, known for hits alongside the group before parting ways with Woollim Entertainment in 2021 and signing with KPLUS. She’s since built an acting career of her own, most recently starring in the short-form drama “Doctor K.”

A Season of Idol Weddings

This announcement lands right in the middle of what’s shaping up to be a busy season for celebrity weddings — following close on the heels of Ji Ye Eun and Vata’s own December wedding announcement, which similarly surprised fans with its sincerity and timing. It seems 2026 is turning into a genuine season of love across the K-pop and K-drama world.

What’s Next

With a private ceremony planned for November 28 surrounded by family and close friends, fans will likely see little beyond official statements — but that hasn’t stopped the wave of congratulations already flooding in for the newly announced couple.
