2PM member and actor Taec-yeon will keep details of his upcoming wedding private out of consideration for his fiancée, who is not a celebrity, his agency confirmed.

On Wednesday, a representative for 51K addressed reports that the singer-actor is set to marry in April, saying the ceremony “will be held privately, including the schedule and all related details, in consideration of his fiancée, who is not a public figure.”

“We ask for your understanding that it is difficult to share specific information regarding the wedding,” the agency added. “Please send your warm blessings and support as Taec-yeon begins this new chapter of his life.”

Earlier in the day, local media reported that Taec-yeon would hold his wedding on April 24 at a location in Seoul, drawing attention from fans both in Korea and abroad.

News of his engagement was first revealed in November. At the time, his agency said Taec-yeon and his fiancée had “promised to spend their lives together” after a long-term relationship. The wedding, they added, would take place in the spring in Seoul with only family members, relatives and close acquaintances in attendance.

Taec-yeon publicly confirmed his relationship in 2020. The couple, who have reportedly been together for about a decade, are now preparing to begin their married life.
