She almost became a MAMAMOO member herself!

He also revealed the reason why they didn’t have a traditional wedding.

I never understood the concept of weddings since a young age. And luckily, Soo Jung said she hates weddings, too.

While people were surprised by this sudden announcement, what shocked people, even more, was the fact that his now-wife is Choi Soo Jung, who is known to be MAMAMOO‘s Hwasa‘s best friend who almost became a member of the group herself.

On a past episode of MBC’s I Live Alone, Hwasa and Choi Soo Jung revealed that they became close friends while training to become idols.

We were close since we were trainees. She could’ve become a member of MAMAMOO. She’s still a precious friend to this day.

— Hwasa

Although Choi Soo Jung didn’t end up debuting through MAMAMOO, she was active as a member of Lotte Girls back in 2010.

 

But Choi Soo Jung later went on to become the CEO of an online clothing company and even had a go at acting through the web drama, Checkmate.

And now she’s married to the webtoon artist, Park Tae Joon!

Congrats to the newlywed couple!
