A new “wedding photo shoot” from famous K-pop choreographers Choi Youngjun and Lia Kim is creating major buzz online. Fans and celebrities are asking the same question: Are they really a couple, or is it just a concept shoot for promotion?
Wedding Photo Shoot Posted With a Big Date: “2026.1.24”
On January 3, Choi Youngjun shared several photos on his social media. He also posted one short line:
“2026.1.24”
Because he did not explain the date, many people started guessing it could be a wedding date.
What the Photos Look Like
In the pictures, Lia Kim wears a clean white wedding dress. She looks calm and confident, with a soft smile. Choi Youngjun wears a classic black tuxedo, giving the shoot a simple and elegant mood.
Some photos show the two standing back-to-back, which adds a quiet but emotional feeling without looking too dramatic.
The shoot feels more focused on natural chemistry and clean dance-like lines and balance, instead of big decorations.
Celebrity Reactions: Even SEVENTEEN Looked Shocked
The photos surprised people in the entertainment industry too.
- SEVENTEEN’s Hoshi reacted with a short “Huh?” and posted many question marks.
- Former short track speed skating national team member Kwak Yoon-gi wrote “Wow” and added a heart.
Their reactions made the rumors spread even faster.
Is It Really a Wedding? Or a Marketing Concept?
Some people believe the photos may be a concept shoot for an upcoming event.
The Korea Choreography Copyright Association will hold a choreography awards ceremony called the 2025 Choreo Awards. The event is scheduled for the 24th at YES24 Live Hall in Seoul, and both Choi Youngjun and Lia Kim are expected to attend.
Because of that, some think the “wedding” theme could be part of a promotion plan for the awards.
