[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Jeong-ho] Comedian Kim Young-hee announced through her social media service (SNS) that she is getting married.
Meanwhile, curiosity is growing about Kim Young-hee's partner and former professional baseball player Yoon Seung-yeol.
Yoon Seung-yeol joined the Hanwha Eagles in 2012 as a 10th-round pick in the first round of the rookie draft. In 2016, after the professional baseball season ended, he enlisted in the police baseball team. He continued playing for the Hanwha Eagles until 2019 but is currently undergoing coaching training.
The two first met at the end of last year through an introduction by an acquaintance and maintained a close older sister-younger brother relationship before officially dating from May this year. They promised to marry within this year but postponed the schedule to January next year due to the COVID-19 pandemic and are currently preparing for the wedding.
On the 20th, Kim Young-hee posted on her SNS, "I am getting married to someone who thinks of me more than I do," adding, "A positive and bright person who appeared during difficult times, gave me harsh words more than anyone else, and stayed by my side."
She continued, "My fianc? is a person who is healthy in both body and mind. His positive personality is very supportive, and we have never fought since we started dating," adding, "I will live beautifully and diligently."
According to Kim Young-hee's agency A9 Media, the couple plans to hold their wedding early next year due to the novel coronavirus (COVID-19).
Kim Young-hee debuted in 2010 as a KBS 25th class public comedian and has since been active in various entertainment programs.
Meanwhile, the couple has a 10-year age difference, with Kim Young-hee being the elder.
