K-pop diva Sung Yuri has married her pro-golfer boyfriend Ahn Sung-hyun, her agency said Tuesday.

They had a closed-door ceremony at an unidentified location with only their family members attending. The two had dated for four years.

“Sung Yuri and Ahn Sung-hyun, who have been in a serious relationship for the past four years, held a marriage ceremony in the form of a family religious service on May 15,” Sung’s agency SL Ent said in a statement. “They chose to donate the funds for their marriage ceremony because they wanted to keep things quiet and focus on each other in a peaceful environment. So we were not able to announce the news beforehand.”

Sung made her debut in 1998 as a member of first generation K-pop girl band Fin.K.L. After the group disbanded in 2002, she became an actress, starring in several TV dramas and hosting TV shows.

Her husband is a coach for Korea's national golf team.
