Kang Ho Dong Reportedly Declined Offer To Host Lee Seung Gi’s Wedding
Kang Ho Dong is revealed to have declined Lee Seung Gi‘s request for the comedian to host his upcoming wedding.
On March 3, actor Son Ji Chang was interviewed by Ilgan Sports. Son Ji Chang is a friend of the couple through the bride’s mother, Kyeon Mi Ri. According to the actor, he volunteered to help organize Lee Seung Gi and Lee Da In‘s upcoming wedding.
Lee Seung Gi and Lee Da In were so busy leading up to the wedding that I volunteered to help them organize the wedding as a wedding gift.

The actor also spoke about the Korean public’s negative reaction to the couple’s wedding. Ever since Lee Seung Gi made his announcement stating that the couple was getting married, the Korean public has criticized the star for marrying into a controversial family.
This is a marriage that should receive many blessings, but I think there are too many misunderstandings. Many people are helping make this a happy memory for the couple.

Son Ji Chang also spoke about why Kang Ho Dong isn’t hosting the wedding. Netizens were perplexed when it was announced that Yoo Jae Suk would be taking on hosting duties due to the fact that Lee Seung Gi is known to be closer to Kang Ho Dong.
No one will be officiating the wedding. To be honest, Lee Seung Gi asked Kang Ho Dong, who he has trusted and followed since their time together on KBS’ 2 Days & 1 Night, to host the ceremony, but he declined, stating he was too shy and said he would be congratulating the couple separately in his own way.

Previously it was announced that Yoo Jae Suk would be hosting the first part of the wedding, and long-time friend and former 2 Days & 1 Night castmate Lee Soo Geun would be hosting the second part of the wedding. Singer Lee Juck will also be performing at the wedding.
