MANILA, Philippines – South Korean singer and actor Kim Hyun-joong is set to wed his non-showbiz partner.

“I’m not sure how to say this. I have decided to spend the rest of my life with someone who has stayed by my side through my most difficult and exhausting time,” he was quoted as saying. Kim did not disclose details about his partner or their relationship. 

Addressing his supporters, he continued, “It was your love and support during my darkest days that I was able to take courage and embark on the second half of my life.
