Legendary Second-Generation Idol Shocks Fans After Reportedly Getting Engaged

Recently retired FTISLAND member Song Seung Hyun is reportedly getting married.

On February 19, Sports Seoul reported that Song Seung Hyun was engaged. According to reports, the recently retired idol will be getting married in the glitzy neighborhood of Chungdam-dong in Gangnam, Seoul.

The report also stated that Song Seung Hyun is currently preparing to take over his father-in-law’s restaurant business in the United States.

Previously, Song Seung Hyun shocked fans when the idol revealed in an Instagram post that he was retiring from the entertainment industry.

Hello, everyone. This is Seung Hyun.

I would like to express my sincere apologies to the fans who have patiently awaited my return, as I am not very active on social media, and it has been a while since I left the company.

I deeply regret the lack of effective communication and the extended period of silence. I am truly sorry and grateful to those fans who have waited for me.

After much contemplation, I have decided to leave the entertainment industry and possibly leave Korea to start a new chapter in my life. It has been four years since I departed from the team FTISLAND to pursue a career as an actor. The challenges were not only in adapting to new endeavors but also in facing the uncertainties of unpredictable waiting periods and complex interpersonal relationships.

While there are no easy tasks or simple relationships in any field, I aim to embrace a healthy and disciplined new life that I can tackle day by day.

I wanted to convey my gratitude to the fans who have been patient and supportive, and I sincerely hope that both you and I can lead healthy and happy lives without physical or emotional distress.

— Song Seung Hyun
