    Sora Aoi shows off her wedding ring in this photo posted on her blog on Jan. 1.
    Retired Japanese porn star Sora Aoi has created an online buzz here with the surprising announcement of her marriage.

    Her name swept South Korea's major websites, including the biggest portal Naver, reflecting her lasting popularity here, even after her retirement in 2010. She is now working in China as a singer.

    Aoi, 34, announced her marriage on New Year's Day through an update of her blog and social media accounts that included a photo of her smiling with her husband-to-be, identified as DJ NON.

    "He is not handsome and rich. But he accepted what I had done in the past," Aoi wrote in Japanese. "I don't regret what I have done. But I know it's a very serious and important issue to consider when deciding a marriage. So I have thought I would marry a person who accepts my past. Given this, he is awesome."

    She did not elaborate on the date and location of her wedding ceremony.
