Eun Ji-won Set to Marry Longtime Girlfriend This Year

K-pop star and TV personality Eun Ji-won, 47, is set to tie the knot with his longtime girlfriend before the end of the year.

According to the music industry on the 13th, Eun Ji-won's fiancée is a stylist who is nine years younger than him. The couple, who have shared time together as an artist and stylist, developed their relationship into romance and have now decided to get married.

Eun Ji-won is preparing for a quiet wedding, minimizing public exposure out of respect for his non-celebrity fiancée, who is reportedly marrying for the first time.

YG Entertainment, Eun Ji-won's agency, previously stated, "Eun Ji-won recently took wedding photos and plans to hold a quiet ceremony with close family members within the year. We would appreciate your warm support."

Eun Ji-won debuted with the group Sechs Kies in 1997 and was previously married in April 2010 to a judo athlete two years his senior in Hawaii. The couple divorced by mutual agreement two years later.

However, Eun Ji-won revealed on MBN's 'Dolsing Fourmen' that he never registered the marriage. He explained, "In the U.S., it's not easy to register a marriage if the couple has different nationalities. I couldn't register my marriage back then, so I'm legally single."
