Wedding Bells For a Musical Pair
Get ready for some K-pop family wedding content! Musician Chok Jae (real name Jeong Jaewon) is officially set to marry Heo Sunyeong—best known as the older sister of KARA’s Heo Youngji. The couple will say “I do” on October 3 in a private ceremony in Samcheong-dong, Seoul, according to a formal announcement by ABYSS COMPANY on June 25.
“We confirm that the couple will have their wedding on October 3,” said the agency. “As this is a personal matter, we ask for understanding as we will not be disclosing further details.”
They’ve Already Said ‘Yes’ on Instagram
Fans first got wind of the love story when Chok Jae himself broke the news on Instagram back on July 1. “I’ve met someone I want to spend the rest of my life with,” he wrote. “She understands and cherishes me just the way I am.”
He added, “I’m nervous but excited about this new chapter. I’d be grateful for your warm support and encouragement as we begin our life together. I’ll continue to work hard to bring you good music and heartfelt performances.”
Who’s Who: Meet the Bride and Groom
Chok Jae, born in 1989, is no stranger to Korea’s elite music scene. He’s worked as a guitarist with top-tier artists like IU and Lee Sora before officially debuting as a singer in 2020.
Heo Sunyeong, born in 1994, may not be a K-pop idol, but she’s no stranger to the spotlight herself. A former announcer, she’s also the beloved big sister of KARA’s Heo Youngji. So yes, expect a star-studded guest list—possibly with some KARA legends in attendance.

With both lovebirds coming from the entertainment world, this union is giving fans wholesome couple energy—with a dash of K-pop glam and acoustic romance.
