Hoon of boy band U-Kiss is getting married to ex-Girl’s Day member Hwang Ji-seon on May 29, Hoon’s agency Tango Music said Friday.

Hoon revealed a handwritten letter to his fans through his agency.

“The wedding ceremony will be held privately with only family and close friends,” the agency said through a statement.

“Although I’m starting a new chapter in my life, I promise that it doesn’t mean that I’m giving up being Hoon of U-Kiss,” Hoon said in the letter. “I’ll be sure to work harder to repay my fans for their love and support.”
