Epik High’s Tablo and film actress Kang Hye-jung married on the afternoon of October 26 is Seoul in a closed ceremony, but have released official photos of the event through Kang’s management, YG Entertainment.

The photos are lovely and capture the couple looking happy on their big day. Kang took her vows, saying, “If in the far-off future someone were to ask me what my life’s achievements were … I would say that it was the time I spent living by your side, spending forever with you, loving you and holding you.”

Ever since quirky actress Kang Hye-jung (Herb) and Epik High rapper Tablo announced their relationship earlier this year, they’ve been very open with their affection for each other, and announced last month that they were expecting their first child. The couple had been intending on marrying next year, but the news spurred them to push up the date, and now the day has come: their wedding, which will be closed to the public, takes place tomorrow (or today, by Korea’s time), on October 26.

The ceremony, which will be closed to the public, will take place at the Bailey House in Seoul’s Samsung-dong neighborhood and only be attended by the couple’s family and a small number of friends. It will be emceed by fellow Epik High-er Mithra Jin.

Following the wedding, the newlyweds will take off for Europe for their honeymoon, after which they’ll move into an apartment in Yongsan to begin their married life together.

Epik High rapper Tablo and actress girlfriend Kang Hye-jung are expecting! In light of this news, they’ve also announced their intention to marry next month.

I don’t think this is particularly surprising news to people who have followed this lovey-dovey couple’s courtship; they’ve been dating for almost a year and been very open about their romance, as well as posting affectionate messages on their respective mini-homepages. Kang, quirky actress of films like Welcome to Dongmakgol and Herb, is currently five weeks pregnant.

The couple has made their formal pre-wedding bows with both families and will have their wedding ceremony in October. Congrats to the happy couple!

Kang Hye-jung (Herb), Park Hee-soon (Seven Days), and Big Bang’s Seung-ri are out with a new movie, Why Did You Come To My Home? [우리 집에 왜 왔니], which opens on April 9. (Watch the trailer below.)

At first glance, the movie looks as quirky and wacky as you might expect from the casting (Kang’s got a history of playing oddball characters and is known for being rather offbeat herself): Kang plays a homeless woman, Park’s the hapless man into whose home she barges in, and Seung-ri’s the neighbor she kidnaps.
