Born in 1996, Som Hye-bin became known to the public by appearing on Mnet's audition program ‘Idol School’ in 2017. On July 31, 2019, she hinted at a same-sex partner by posting on social media, “In fact, I have a very pretty girlfriend,” and later on August 12 declared on Instagram Stories, “Yes, this is a coming out. I am in a same-sex relationship. I am bisexual,” which sparked a stir.

She also explained the reason for her coming out as “not to draw attention, but ‘because I did not want to hide.’” With her announcement that she will marry a person of the opposite sex, she is drawing attention from netizens.

Below is the full text of Som Hye-bin's post

Hello, this is singer Som Hye-bin.

I am getting married.

It may be sudden news, but after meeting God I experienced true rest and intense peace, and within the Lord I met the one person with whom I will spend my life.

He lives with the same faith as I do and genuinely cherishes me

He is a lovable person who always, with a sincere heart, brings me warmth and peace, with a cozy scent.

With Ye-hoon, we have come to build, in love, a faith-based home that lifts each other up on a day in February.

It is a pity to condense a very long story and share it like this, but

I will continue to share updates, and I will strive to deliver a good influence to the world as an artist resembling peace through music and painting.

I sincerely thank everyone who has believed in and supported me through countless moments, and I pray that it will simply be a happy romance.

I will live romantically and well.
