our love story

Her Story Our story began online, through a dating website, where we spent a good amount of time getting to know each other through messages. When we finally decided to meet in person, we met at Kuppi Coffee Cafe in Edgewater, NJ. Juchan arrived an hour late, but I chose to wait—curious to see who he really was beyond the screen. That wait turned out to be the start of something special. We talked for hours, and time seemed to fly by. Our conversation flowed easily, and we discovered how much we shared and agreed on. He made me feel comfortable right away, and that day I realized what a genuinely good person Juchan is. That first walk together marked the beginning of our journey—one that led to longer walks, deeper experiences, and countless moments shared side by side. Not long after, Juchan met Amber—and she loved him right away. From their very first meeting, it was clear she had already chosen him as her person too. Seeing how naturally he cared for her and how quickly she adored him made my heart feel even more certain. As the months passed, the more time we spent together, the more I wanted our time to last longer. We supported each other through personal challenges and difficult moments, always standing by one another no matter what. Slowly, I began to rely on him more and came to see him as my other half. The proposal was especially meaningful because it took place where our relationship truly began—when we first became boyfriend and girlfriend. It wasn’t flashy or movie-like, but simple, honest, and perfectly us. It was a moment just for Juchan and me. Tears in his eyes, happiness in mine—we needed nothing more. In that moment, just like him, I knew I wanted to spend the rest of my life together. Juchan is irreplaceable and so special in so many ways. I’m incredibly excited for everything that lies ahead—for all the moments we’ll face together, with Amber by our side, and for a lifetime of love, laughter, and growing together. 그남자의 이야기 우리의 첫만남은 뉴저지 엣지워터에 있는 KUPPI COFFEE 였습니다. 처음 만난 우리는 커피를 2잔이나 마시며 서로를 알아갔습니다. 리나와 저는 둘 다 달달한 커피를 좋아했고 영화를 좋아했으며 강아지를 사랑했습니다. 두번째 만남이자 첫데이트는 아메리카 드림몰에서 엠버와 함께했습니다. 엠버는 저를 너무 좋아해주었고 그런 모습을 리나는 좋아했습니다. 이렇게 만남이 쌓이고 쌓여가는 중 저에겐 힘든 날들이 생겼습니다. 그런 저를 지지해주며 믿어주었고 그런 모습에서 저는 결혼을 결심했습니다. 2024년 12월 크리스마스 무렵 부모님께 결혼 허락을 받았고 그렇게 저희는 결혼 준비를 하게 됐습니다. 2025년 7월 12일 사귄지 1년이 되기 하루전 리나에게 고백한 아이스크림 가게 같은 자리에 앉아 청혼의 반지를 받아준 그녀의 해맑은 웃음은 저로 하여금 다짐을 하게 만들었습니다. 매일매일 나와 함께하는 순간마다 그녀의 얼굴에 저렇게 해맑은 웃음을 지어주게 만들어야겠다. 그것이 저의 행복이 되어주었기 때문이였습니다. 그렇게 저희는 2026년 3월 14일 토요일에 백년가약을 맺기로 했습니다. 와주셔서 모두 다같이 축하해주시면 저희의 결혼이 끝날까지 행복한 기억이 될 것입니다.
