T-ara's Jiyeon Announces Marriage To Professional Baseball Player Hwang Jae Gyun

T-ara’s Jiyeon and KT Wiz professional baseball player Hwang Jae Gyun are getting married!

On February 10, Jiyeon wrote a letter to fans on Instagram.

Hello, this is Jiyeon.

There’s something I wanted to share with my fans directly, so I took courage in order to write this.

I debuted in my teens, and somehow the time has flown by and I’m now in my 30s.

When I was surrounded by anxieties and uncertainties after my debut as a young and scared teenager, when I wanted to give up due to hard times in my 20s, it was thanks to you who reached out your hands to me and cheered me on that I was able to pass through the long tunnel and get to where I am today.

Rather than hearing the news from other people, I wanted to tell my fans directly through my own words.

Last year, I had a boyfriend whom I started dating after meeting through an acquaintance. He is always considerate of me, takes care of me, and taught me what happiness is. Next winter, I will exchange vows with this boyfriend who has been like a gift that life has given me.

I will live happily and beautifully with my dependable boyfriend, who has always given me his shoulder to lean on and took firm hold of me when I was feeling unstable.

I’m worried that you might be surprised by the sudden news. Now that the day has come for me to share this happiness with everyone, I’m also nervous and shaking as I write word by word.

I will continue to repay the love and support of fans by showing a good image. Thank you and I love you.

Hwang Jae Gyun wrote, “I have found a person that I want to spend forever with. During a difficult period last year, I met someone who took firm hold of me and helped me even just standing by my side, and we have decided to get married. I was worried that I could affect the mood of my team, KT, who are working hard with the one goal of winning, with news about my dating and marriage in the middle of the season where we need to be focused on games. That’s why we are announcing this ahead of the start of the season.”

Congratulations to the couple!
