JK likes to say that Janice was the one to make the first move on Hinge by answering one of the questions on his profile - "How would your friends describe you?" That question ignited the conversation on Hinge. JK liked that Janice was bold! Janice liked how easy it was to talk to JK. And Janice had passed over all the eligible bachelors that Hinge had suggested the first time around, so she figured she probably should engage with some of the profiles. They hit it off right from the start. And it didn't take long before JK asked her out on their first date.
The first date was 6 hours long. And how the first date played out would go on to reflect perfectly the dynamic of their relationship; to always have a plan but leave room for spontaneity. JK had planned a great first date! He planned for them to have a delicious dinner at a 1 Michelin star restaurant and then proceeded to take her to a comedy show. He figured if he couldn't make her laugh, at least she'll have a fun time laughing at other people. Following the show, they just winged the rest of the date! They got a second dinner, drank boba and played board games!
JK proposed on April 8th in Oahu, Hawaii. Janice knew that a proposal might happen on that trip, considering they already booked their wedding venue. But the big surprise was that JK managed to get both families to fly to Hawaii to be a part of the proposal. It was truly special for Janice to say yes to being JK's forever partner in front of their family!
