According to TenAsia's report on the 23rd, the couple will hold their wedding ceremony on November 13th at the Grand InterContinental Parnas Hotel in Samseong-dong, Gangnam-gu, Seoul. Initially, the wedding was intended to be private, with the location undisclosed. However, as invitations were distributed to numerous guests, the details began to surface.
Kim Jun-ho and Kim Ji-min, both well-connected in the entertainment industry, have revealed that they expect around 1,200 guests. The InterContinental was chosen for its capacity to accommodate such a large number of attendees, making it a fitting choice for the couple.
The InterContinental is renowned for hosting lavish and expensive weddings, with costs starting at a minimum of 80 million KRW (approximately $67,000 USD), which is about 1.6 times higher than the average wedding cost at Seoul hotels.
The venue has previously hosted weddings for several celebrities, including actress Han Hye-jin and soccer player Ki Sung-yueng, singer Lee Seung-gi and actress Lee Da-in, among others.
Kim Jun-ho and Kim Ji-min publicly acknowledged their relationship in April 2022. Kim Jun-ho proposed to Kim Ji-min on SBS's 'My Little Old Boy' last December. The couple is set to become the 24th comedian couple, following the recent marriage of Kim Hae-jun and Kim Seung-hye.
