Last February 7, Lee Seung Gi announced through his SNS:

I have decided to spend the rest of my life with Lee Da In, whom I love, not just as a partner but as a married couple.

I proposed, and she said yes.  

Lee Seung Gi further described her as "someone with a lot of warmth and love."

Lee Da In also announced through her agency on the same day, 

I have formed a special relationship with Lee Seung Gi as a reliable partner. The wedding will be held on April 7 with relatives and close acquaintances from both families. As it is held privately, we seek for your understanding that we cannot give you detailed information about the specific schedule.

On this day, Lee Seung Gi expressed Lee Da In as "she is warm-hearted, loving, and I want to have her on my side forever," and said, "I hope you support the future of the two of us, and we will continue to share a lot and live happily."

Contrary to Lee Seung Gi's expectations upon announcing his marriage, fans expressed their opinions by shouting "No." Since many fans took family issues seriously from the beginning of their public relationship, receiving their encouragement and support took work. Some fans even held truck protests against Lee Seung Gi and Lee Da In's dating.

Despite these objections, Lee Seung Gi is determined enough to even change his religion. One YouTuber said, 

Lee Seung Gi  was originally a Christian, but he devoted his heart to marrying Lee Da In that he visit temples often.

In particular, he added that the family has already recognized Lee Seung Gi as a son-in-law to the extent that Lee Seung Gi already does the Buddhist rosary alongside Lee Da In's family.

Lee Da In also changed something, which is her name. According to 935 Entertainment, Lee Da In's entertainment company, Lee Da In changed her real name from Lee Joo Hee to Lee Ra Yoon. Lee Da In's older sister also changed her name to Lee So Yul. Regarding this, Lee Da In's entertainment company also said,

"We ask for your understanding that it is difficult to confirm this news as the reason for the name change was done in private."

Lee Seung Gi is suffering from fan opposition for the first time in his career. After his debut as a singer in 2005, Lee Seung Gi has always received full support, even when there was a conflict with his entertainment company and when he donated the settlement amount. However, Lee Seung Gi's marriage announcement still received critical comments, and public opinion is still cold.

Amidst opposition from fans, the two will hold their wedding ceremony on April 7 at the Grand Intercontinental Seoul Parnas Hotel in Samseong-dong, Seoul. The wedding will be held privately together with their relatives and close acquaintances.
