As Korea Herald reports, the stylist stressed that the couple do not need permission to celebrate their relationship and do not intend to wait for the world to change.

Life on their own terms

Kim said that she and her partner want to build a life together in their own way, regardless of what others think. She also expressed hope that their story would give confidence to other LGBTQ+ couples planning a future together.
