On February 7, Lee Seung Gi announced he will be marrying actress Lee Da In on April 7.

The singer made the announcement on his personal Instagram account, sharing a handwritten letter with his fans. He announced, "I proposed and received consent. We will have a wedding on April 7. She is a warm-hearted and loving person who I want to keep by my side forever."

With the announcement, many Korean netizens have gathered on various online communities and articles pertaining to Lee Seung Gi and Lee Da In's marriage to share their two cents.

Many are divided and have been giving mixed opinions about the marriage announcement. Many fans are upset and have brought up Lee Da In and her family's past controversy as an issue.

Back in 2011, Lee Da In's father was sentenced to prison for manipulating stock prices and earning unfair profits. Lee Da In's father was sentenced to three years in prison after taking control of Corebit, a KOSDAQ-listed company, and falsely claiming that they would invest in the medical bio-industry, taking 26.6 billion KRW (~21.1 million USD) and diverting the funds for purposes other than those publicly announced. He reportedly used the proceeds to pay off his debts instead of investing.

Lee Da In's father was released from prison after completing his sentence in 2014 but was arrested again on the same charges in 2016. He was handed over to trial on charges of making a profit of more than 2.3 billion KRW (1.83 million USD) by inflating the stock price of a KOSDAQ-listed company of which his wife, Kyeon Mi Ri, was a major shareholder and selling the shares received through a paid-in capital increase.

This incident sparked negative public opinion towards Lee Da In and raised concerns about Lee Seung Gi's potential marriage to the actress.

Fans have become more concerned, particularly because of Lee Seung Gi's latest incident with Hook Entertainment, where he has become a victim.

Korean netizens commented, "I'm so shocked," "He's really taking that path he shouldn't take...." "Lee Seung Gi, you're so foolish," "Her father basically conned people out of money and Lee Seung Gi was also a victim who lost money....How can he get married to someone with a con-man father?" "She grew up through the money her dad stole from all his victims," "I don't think I can congratulate him in this marriage," "How can he overlook her father's crimes when he was a victim of fraud too?" "He's going to be the son-in-law of a financial fraud criminal," "There are victims who took their own life because of her father's crimes," and "Wow...This is so baffling..."

On the other hand, there were fans who supported his marriage news and commented, "Congrats," "I just hope he lives a happy life," "All I can wish is for him to be happy at this point," and "I am surprised by the news but congrats."
