South Korean singer and actress Song Ji Eun exchanged vows with YouTuber Park We, who is paralyzed from the neck down, in a touching ceremony.

The event, held at a Seoul hotel on Oct. 9, was celebrated with close family and friends, featuring performances by singer Insooni and comedian Jo Hye Ryun, reported by Yonhap News.

Song, 34, was brought to tears during her husband's vows. "Today, a decade since my paralysis diagnosis, I am thankful to have you, the one I will spend my life with," Park said.

Comedian Park Seul Gi, a friend of the groom, shared his happiness for the couple online, stating: "Even the sky is blessing your marriage on this perfect autumn evening. Our dear Park We, always kind-hearted and supportive, is getting married today.

The couple first met at a church prayer meeting in 2022, where Park was immediately drawn to Song's humor and genuine nature. They went public with their relationship in December 2023, with Park revealing, "This incredible, kind, and thoughtful woman has entered my life. I am thankful for finding someone with such a gentle spirit and strong faith."

Song, who debuted in 2009 with the girl group SECRET, has been featured in several popular dramas including "My Secret Romance," "Melting Me Softly," and "The Man’s Voice."

Park, 37, was a former football player who became paralyzed after a severe spinal cord injury from a three-meter fall in May 2014, as reported by Korea Times. With family support and personal determination, he managed to regain some upper body mobility.

In 2019, Park started his YouTube channel "Weracle," which has garnered over 850,000 subscribers. Through his channel, he shares his experiences and aims to motivate the disabled community.
