The person who caught the bouquet at actress Yoon Yoo-sun's wedding was the late actress Yeo Woon-kye.
On the October 12th episode of KBS2's variety show 'Problem Child in House' (referred to as 'Problem Child'), actress Yoon Yoo-sun and her husband, former chief judge and current lawyer Lee Sung-ho, appeared as guests.
Yoon Yoo-sun married Lee Sung-ho in 2001, and they have a son and a daughter. On the show, Lee Sung-ho recalled the frenzy that followed their marriage announcement, saying, "The phone rang off the hook at the office. An exclusive article was on the front page of the sports news. They even threatened to storm the office with cameras. I didn't go to work that day."
He continued, "I realized after getting married that she was a really long-time actress. Usually, a colleague or friend catches the bouquet at weddings. At our wedding, Yeo Woon-kye caught the bouquet."
Yoon Yoo-sun explained, "I got married late at 33. So, I didn't have many friends to give the bouquet to. Back then, it felt like being 40 today. So, I just threw it, and Yeo Woon-kye caught it. That year, her son got married." Yeo Woon-kye passed away eight years later in 2009 due to lung cancer.
When asked about the most common question they received at the wedding, Lee Sung-ho said, "People asked how we got married and how long we would stay together. When a celebrity gets married, divorce articles often follow. Many asked if I would let her continue acting. I replied, 'Why are you asking me? Go ask her.'"
