According to one exclusive media outlet report on April 26 KST, ALICE (formerly ELRIS) member Kim So Hee (24) will be marrying a non-celebrity businessman 15-years older than her this year. 

The two plan to register their marriage next month after dating for one year. A small ceremony will also be held with close friends and acquaintances some time soon. 

With her marriage, Kim So Hee intends on retiring from the entertainment industry, the media outlet reported. Her exclusive contract with IOK Company, the label currently managing ALICE, will come to an end next month. Kim So Hee has chosen not to renew her contract, and will instead retire from entertainment.

A representative of IOK Company confirmed, "It's true that Kim So Hee is planning to marry her boyfriend. She has decided to retire from the entertainment industry, and so her exclusive contract will expire next month." 

Meanwhile, Kim So Hee debuted as a member of ELRIS in 2017. The group was rebranded as ALICE in April of 2022 under new management, going on to release albums such as 'Dance On' and 'Show Down'.

Be part of a non successful girl group -- > start playing golf ---> marry a much older non celebrity businessman. Didn't we see that exact same scenario not long ago?

Good for her. Sad that Elris and Alice never took off. But at least she will be taken care of.
