“Thank you. I didn’t say anything but all of you know about it already. Who posted about it? I don’t understand. It was a small ceremony with just family present,” according to atranslated tweetby Kevin Kim.

The Worlds champion was already in a serious relationship even before his 2013 debut as a substitute player for SKT. He doesn’t really keep his partner as a secret from everyone, but fans can tell that MaRin is a very private person.

계정은 만들어 달라는 요청하에 만들게 되었습니다. 별로 자랑할만한 일도 아니고 당연히 해야 할 일이었기에 어제 식을 올렸습니다. 어쩌다가 알게 되어 축하해 주신 많은 분들께 감사드리며, 시기상 비공개 소규모 식이었기에 왜 결혼식에 대해 알리지 않았느냐는 질문도 많이 받았으나 현재 경기를 뛰어야 하는 선수들이 초대되어 혹여나 불미스러운 일이 생길까 조용히 치렀습니다. 이미 은퇴한지 오래된 저의 결혼식에 소란스러워지진 않을까 염려되는 제 생각을 잘 헤아려주신 주변 분들과 팬분들께 다시 한번 감사드립니다. 덕분에 별 탈 없이 무사히 결혼식을 마쳤습니다. 덧붙여 여럿 궁금해하시던(?) 제 웨딩 사진 두 컷 올려봅니다. 마지막으로 연장된 코로나 2.5단계 잘 견디길 바라며 파이팅넘치는 월요일 되기를 바랍니다.
