Kim Woo Bin and Shin Min Ah have officially announced that they’re getting married. On November 20, the beloved couple shared a joint statement revealing their decision to tie the knot in a private ceremony on December 20, 2025, in Seoul, South Korea. The wedding will be intimate, attended only by their families and closest friends.
The announcement comes a decade after the two first began dating, marking a milestone not only in their relationship but also in their individual careers. What many fans are now swooning over is the fact that their love story has secretly been a classic noona romance all along. Kim Woo Bin is 5 years younger than Shin Min Ah, making their real-life relationship resemble a popular K-drama trope.
Kim Woo Bin, whose real name is Kim Hyun Joong, was born on July 16, 1989, and is currently 36 years old. Shin Min Ah, born Yang Min Ah on April 5, 1984, is 41. The age gap has never been a point of concern for the couple—if anything, it adds a sweet layer to their already admired love story.
The two first met while shooting an ad campaign for Giordano, and their chemistry quickly drew attention. Rumors about their relationship surfaced soon after, eventually confirmed by both agencies. Over the years, they’ve quietly built a strong foundation away from the spotlight, maintaining a low-key but stable partnership.
One of the most defining chapters of their relationship came in 2017, when Kim Woo Bin was diagnosed with nasopharyngeal cancer. Shin Min Ah remained by his side throughout his diagnosis and treatment, offering emotional support as he stepped away from the entertainment industry to focus on recovery. Their bond only grew stronger through this difficult period.
Although the couple appeared in Our Blues together, they intentionally avoided playing each other’s love interest to preserve the natural flow and quality of the drama. Now, 10 years after they first got together, they’re preparing to walk into the next phase of their lives—hand in hand, just as fans had always hoped.
