"On top of the excitement, I gained certainty, and now we want to walk the same path together," she said at the time.
A day before the wedding, Ryu shared her excitement with followers, saying, "Thanks to all your support, the two of us will make our grand entrance tomorrow."
Born in 1993, Ryu debuted as a member of K-pop girl group T-ara in 2010. She left the group in 2012 and subsequently pursued an acting career.
She has appeared in television series including "Hello, My Twenties!," "My Father Is Strange," "Mad Dog" and "Player 2: Master of Swindlers," as well as the film "Exist Within."
