Lee Seung-gi, Lee Da-in, continuous gossip after wedding

Rumors surrounding the wedding of singer and actor Lee Seung-gi (36) and Lee Da-in (real name Lee Ra-yoon, 30), who tied the knot on the 7th, are continuing.

The first is the rumor that the couple had a premarital pregnancy. Recently, a netizen claimed the rumor that Lee Seung-gi and Lee Da-in had premarital pregnancies and provided several reasons. The grounds included bell-line dresses, wearing low-heeled shoes, fancy tiaras, and large bouquets, but these are significantly less valid as reasons for claiming premarital pregnancy.

What is least persuasive is the SNS post of Lee Da-in's older sister Lee Yu-bi. Lee Yu-bi recently posted a photo of Lee Da-in on her SNS and said, "I am the best blessing in the world. I will call you sister from now on," with a baby angel emoticon. added. The possibility of Lee Da-in being pregnant came to the fore from the phrase, “I call you sister,” including the emoticon of a baby angel.

In relation to this, both Lee Da-in and Lee Seung-gi strongly denied the rumors of premarital pregnancy. Lee Da-in's agency, 9Ato Entertainment, told Ten Asia on the 10th, "It is absolutely not true that actress Lee Da-in was pregnant before marriage." He added, “I have been filming the drama ‘Lovers’ since last January and am concentrating on keeping up with my schedule.” Lee Seung-gi's representative also said, "It's not true" regarding the premarital pregnancy rumors.

Next, actor Lee Soon-jae's comment, who was a surprise officiant at the wedding, went viral. Lee Soon-jae, who took the microphone at the wedding hall, told Lee Seung-gi and Lee Da-in, "Make love actively and actively. Do it 5 times a week. You can't do it if you're weak." Lee Seung-gi seemed embarrassed and made a motion to wipe his sweat, while Lee Da-in covered her face with a bouquet. The guests burst into laughter.

As this anecdote was reported, a heated debate continued regarding Lee Soon-jae's remarks. Netizens criticized, saying, “It seems like the level of language to be used as an official officiant is excessive.” On the other hand, opposing opinions were also raised, such as, "Don't many people make jokes like that at weddings?"

Another rumor arose regarding singer Lee Sun-hee and actor Lee Seo-jin's absence from the wedding. Lee Sun-hee is an incomparable friend who helped Lee Seung-gi debut, and Lee Seo-jin is a senior at the agency who has worked together for a long time. The two did not attend Lee Seung-gi's wedding. In relation to this, there was a back story that suggested that Lee Seon-hee and Lee Seo-jin had completely disowned Lee Seung-gi.

In relation to this, one media outlet reported that Lee Sun-hee and Lee Seo-jin did not attend the wedding because they did not receive wedding invitations from Lee Seung-gi and Lee Da-in. Last year, Seung-gi Lee terminated his exclusive contract with Hook Entertainment, where he had worked for 19 years, due to various issues such as settlement issues. During this process, rumors of a discord with Lee Sun-hee and Lee Seo-jin arose. Lee Sun-hee and Lee Seo-jin are still under Hook Entertainment.

Lee Seung-gi and Lee Da-in held their wedding ceremony at the Grand Intercontinental Seoul Parnas in Gangnam-gu, Seoul at 6 p.m. on the 7th. Not only are Lee Seung-gi and Lee Da-in active in the entertainment industry, but Lee Da-in's mother is actress Gyeon Mi-ri, so many celebrities attended and graced the event. Many entertainment industry figures, including broadcasters Yoo Jae-seok and Kang Ho-dong, and actors Lee Soon-jae, Han Hyo-joo, and Cha Eun-woo, blessed the couple's marriage.

In particular, Lee Seung-gi and Lee Da-in did not go on a once-in-a-lifetime honeymoon, but returned to their regular jobs immediately after the wedding and are maintaining their schedules. Lee Seung-gi is preparing for the Asia tour concert 'Boy, Walking on the Road - Chapter 2', which will be held from May 4th, and Lee Da-in is busy filming MBC's new drama 'Lovers', which depicts the love between lovers against the backdrop of the Manchu War.
