Top Korean comedian Yu Jae-suk tied the knot on Sunday with MBC announcer Na Kyung-eun at the Shilla Hotel.
The 35-year-old is currently one of the most popular comedians in Korea, hosting four programs including MBC's "Infinity Challenge" and KBS' "Happy Together."
Na, 27, became an MBC announcer in 2004 and is currently hosting a radio program called "Chocolate."
The couple first met during "Infinity Challenge" in 2006, when Na appeared only by voice, asking questions to the hosts of the program.
The two have been dating secretly since then and finally decided to get married early this year.
"I have hosted a lot of weddings, but it's my first time actually being the groom. I am so nervous I'm shaking," Yu said to reporters during a press conference prior to the wedding.
"I have never been in front of so many reporters before. It's overwhelming," Na added.
When asked about plans to have children, the nervous Yu drew laughter by saying that they did not have any specific plans but if they did have a daughter he hoped she resembles her mother.
"We'll do our best to live happily" Yu added.
The couple will head to Thailand for their honeymoon and return to work next week.
