The 'I Am Solo' Season 26 has witnessed a heartwarming celebration as the 'Pangyo Couple,' Hyunsook and Youngsik, tied the knot amidst the blessings of their guests. Adding to the joyous occasion, fellow cast members Youngsoo and Youngsook have officially confirmed their romantic relationship, continuing the season's love-filled narrative.

The YouTube channel 'Village Chief Entertainment TV,' operated by the production team of SBS PLUS's 'I Am Solo,' released a video titled 'Pangyo Couple Finally Gets Married! Season 26 Hyunsook & Youngsik's Wedding.'

The video captures the emotional wedding ceremony of Hyunsook and Youngsik. Although they were not the final couple on the show, they developed a connection outside the program, fueled by their proximity in Pangyo. Hyunsook reminisced, "He offered to drive me from Pangyo to my home in Seoul," recalling the moment she sensed Youngsik's affection. Fellow guest Oksun remarked, "From the first day, it was clear Youngsik was interested in Hyunsook," congratulating the couple on their union.

The wedding also brought surprising news of another couple's formation. Youngsoo, attending as a guest, publicly announced his relationship with Youngsook. When asked about his dating life, Youngsoo confirmed, "The relationship is going well," revealing they have been together for 8-9 months. The couple, known online as the 'Professor Couple,' first met on a blind date five years ago and reconnected through the show.

Youngsoo shared, "Youngsook couldn't attend due to her schedule in Busan," and shyly mentioned his future marriage plans, saying, "I'll work hard on it."

Other cast members shared joyful updates and heartfelt congratulations. Emcee Youngchul humorously noted, "This is my 7th or 8th time hosting a wedding," while joking about his own marriage prospects, yet wishing the couple happiness.

Kyungsoo expressed, "I'm happy to see the best outcome of Season 26," teasing that he will reveal his own romantic news in a future live broadcast. Sangchul, hoping to find a good match by 2026, added to the camaraderie and ongoing love stories among the Season 26 members, drawing warm congratulations from viewers.
