Lee Juno announces shot gun wedding with young pregnant girlfriend, another day in Korea~

[loverboy.livejournal.com]

On December 6, the ex-Seo Taiji & Boys member Lee Juno pulled a shocker by proposing to his 23 years younger fiancé during the first recording of SBS “Comeback Show Top 10.” The legendary dancer revealed for the first time that he’s been dating his fiancé Park Mi Ri, who’s nine-month pregnant, for a little over a year now and will get married early next year.

He said, “I finished marriage registration with a woman 23 years younger than me. We already took wedding photos and are planning to hold our wedding soon. She’s pregnant now and is expecting next month.”

“We already moved in together. On paper we’re already married, but we haven’t done the actual wedding ceremony. It’s been over a year since we dated,” he continued.

Lee Juno got emotional as he explained what took him so long to come out in public with his marriage. “The reason I couldn’t make this announcement in public was because I was afraid she might get hurt from it. We have a large age gap.”


“My father-in-law is also here, but he’s one of the biggest supporters of us. It’s not an easy wedding, but regardless of what people say, I think the love between my wife and me is most important. I think people will understand if we truly love each other. I feel the most comfortable on stage and that’s why I wanted to propose to her tonight,” he added.

Lee Juno went on to sing a love song he personally wrote for his fiancé. He also sang “August Rush” during the show.

The producer of the show later told local media that Lee Juno told the production crew in advance about his plan. “Everyone on the set celebrated the occasion together,” he said.

Lee Juno was the main dancer of Seo Taiji & Boys, the legendary 90’s pop group that is still regarded as one of the most popular groups to have modernized Korean pop music. Together with the group’s leader Seo Taiji and Yang Hyun Suk, founder and chairman of YG Entertainment, Lee Juno enjoyed incredible mainstream success as part of one of the most prominent and influential musicians in the history of Korean pop culture. After the group’s disbandment in 1996, he became a producer and professional choreographer, while also appearing on several musicals. He’s currently appearing as a contestant on SBS “Comeback Show Top 10,” where old school artists from the 90’s compete against each other in singing and dancing.

Congratulations Lee Juno!

...23 years is a lot. but hey, if they truly love each other, power to ya.

[gyuri.livejournal.com]

I'm starting to notice that it's a lot of the older idols that are getting married and then being like "o ya she's preggo too"

[loverboy.livejournal.com]

I'm always really surprised when an idol gets married and there's no pregnancy involved.

[gyuri.livejournal.com]

Same. I should start taking money on which current idol will be the first to get pregnant then get married.

My money's on SD and lady jane tbh.

[ginevragirl.livejournal.com]

Same. Lol.

[anconeous.livejournal.com]

Wife's apparently 21, most likely in Korean age. Damn. Wouldn't that mean she's the same age as Seohyun, Key, Minho, etc.?!

Best wishes to them then. I can't imagine being married AND pregnant when I was 21. All I cared about then was my senior thesis so I can graduate.

[crisketch.livejournal.com]

Dude man, that's a three generation family age gap in a single one.

[akita-ino.livejournal.com]

dating for over a year? that's maybe a year and what, two months?
and she's pregnant 9 months now? hmmmm

[fibfables.livejournal.com]

whoaaa every single seo tai ji & boys member has/ had a wife significantly younger than him

[crisketch.livejournal.com]

seo taiji & the pedobears

[loverboy.livejournal.com]

And surprisingly Seo Taiji is the only one that married a women within a decade of himself lol.

[fibfables.livejournal.com]

lol they all wanted to outdo each other, so the remaining 2 had to marry when they are 40+

[johnnyquest89.livejournal.com]

and she wasn't preggo at the time either.

[violetrosie.livejournal.com]

23 years is more than my age. damn.

[bishieaddict.livejournal.com]

That took him long enough...

[ari-meh.livejournal.com]

23 years is a bit... and she's 9 months pregnant.. and they know each other for a little over an year, which means they only dated for a few months before she got pregnant.
you can totally tell that this wasn't in their plans.

[gyuri.livejournal.com]

most kids aren't in their parents plans.

[ari-meh.livejournal.com]

i meant marriage.

[o-o-mai-o-o.livejournal.com]

holy shit, 9 months? She's about to burst that baby out.

[o-o-mai-o-o.livejournal.com]

though this is not at all as bad as that 17 year old chick in America who got married to that 50-something year old.

[modestgoddess79.livejournal.com]

[witeaya.livejournal.com]

[gunsandsmoke.livejournal.com]

idk

[miszmba.livejournal.com]

a+ icon

[nightfrost75.livejournal.com]

9 months, kinda leaving that to the last min there.
23 years! Your age difference is more then the years she's been alive.
Welp, Congrats. As long as they are happy.

[love-keiko.livejournal.com]

well damn...

[hellafun.livejournal.com]

my parents are 11 years apart in age so i'm kind of accustomed to big age gaps, but 23 years is a bit too much for me

[6rystalis.livejournal.com]

Their marriage and their life, so congratulations :)

On the other hand, she must be good for him because he looks a lot better than he has for years :)

[headswillroll88.livejournal.com]

they have the same gap as my parents and i. that would kind of gross me out but more power to them.

[angel-of-blue.livejournal.com]

The age gap doesn't bother me as much as the fact that she got pregnant like 3 months after they started dating. And Wedding at month nine is not exactly great but they look quite happy in the photos so I guess that's ok. Congratulation.

[enchantark.livejournal.com]

is that changmin in ur icon?

[angel-of-blue.livejournal.com]

yes that's him :)

[enchantark.livejournal.com]

DAMN. cute.
wassup with ppl calling him vagina lips

[angel-of-blue.livejournal.com]

lol it's just another way of saying they want to suck on those lips. Can not handle all the hotness that is Shim Changmin.

[enchantark.livejournal.com]

LOL
do you happen to have a bigger pic of him in your first icon? :s

[akaich0u.livejournal.com]

Call me a prude/geezer/too Asian but I think it's nice should two people who are having a baby together get married. In Western society it seems to have been reduced to a somewhat meaningless piece of paper (thanks, Kim), I know, but from what I've seen there is a huge difference in behavior between dating vs. marriage in Asian society. Congrats to them.

[aurelie-884422.livejournal.com]

Call me traditional but do you know what I think would have been nice..

long-term relationship, then marriage and THEN pregnancy.

[akaich0u.livejournal.com]

I agree. But haha yeah, sometimes not everything goes according to plan. Though I think that if it were to happen to me I'd have no qualms about getting married as the next step. That's why I don't really like the term "shotgun wedding"; kinda casts a cloud/negative connotation over something I think is just...right?

wait...

[aznparawhore21.livejournal.com]

how old is the ajusshi?!? lol
