Solbi (whose real name is Kwon Jian, 42), a singer and painter, and actor Lee Kyuhan, 46, will marry next April, Solbi's agency, Jian Castle, said on October 15.


According to the agency, the two recently met with each other's families and agreed to marry. The wedding will be held privately, attended by family members, relatives and close friends.


The two first met while appearing together on the dating reality show "Seeking Old Connections," which aired on KBS Joy and KBS 2TV last year. They showed an interest in each other at the time and reportedly later became a couple. Lee also said on the show that he had previously appeared on a variety program with Solbi.


Solbi debuted in 2006 as a member of the co-ed group Typhoon. She began her solo career in 2007 with the release of "Why Did I Love?" and has also worked as a painter since holding her first solo exhibition in 2012. Last year, she wrote the screenplay for the short-form drama "My Ex-Boyfriend Is a Top Star."



Lee made his debut in the 1996 KBS 2TV teen drama "Start." He has since appeared in "My Lovely Sam Soon" (2005), "Que Sera, Sera" (2007), "Rich Son" (2018) and "The Judge from Hell" (2024), among other productions. Most recently, he appeared in the KBS 2TV drama "To My Beloved Thief," which ended in February this year.
