Lim Chan-kyu, a pitcher for the professional baseball team LG Twins, has directly denied rumors of marrying golfer Son Sae-eun within the year.
On the 13th, Lim Chan-kyu posted on his Instagram, "The news that I will be getting married this year is not true," adding, "I will let you know when it is decided."
On the same day, a media outlet reported that Lim Chan-kyu and Son Sae-eun would hold their wedding on December 12 at the Shilla Hotel in Seoul.
As the news spread across various online communities and gained attention, Lim Chan-kyu personally dismissed the rumors.
Lim Chan-kyu and Son Sae-eun have been a public couple since January 2022. The two have consistently shown their affection for each other by leaving loving comments on each other's social media.
In particular, Son Sae-eun has gained attention as the younger sister of Son Na-eun, an actress from the group Apink. Lim Chan-kyu revealed shortly after their relationship became public that it started with a blind date on the E Channel show 'Playing Bro 2.'

He has participated in 27 games this year, recording 11 wins and 7 losses with an earned run average of 3.03, contributing to the team's regular season championship.
Son Sae-eun, born in 1997, passed the KLPGA semi-professional test in 2017. She appeared on tvN's 'Golf Avengers' in 2021 and 2022 and has also worked as a golf wear model.
