<div style="text-align:center"><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1747240074541_DSC08297.jpg" style="width:700px" class="fr-fic fr-dib"/></div><div><br/></div><p><strong>Kristel Fulgar</strong> and <strong>Ha </strong><strong>Su-Hyuk</strong> are finally married, and their wedding was so beautiful it’s like straight out of a romantic K-drama. </p><p>The couple tied the knot on May 10, 2025 in South Korea, where the Filipino actress/singer/vlogger will now be based. A couple of days before this traditional Korean wedding, the two held an Iglesia Ni Cristo (INC) wedding also in Seoul. Kristel is a member of INC, and in November 2024, Suhyuk joined INC as well, later confirming their relationship. Shortly after, in February 2025, the two got engaged. </p><p>In a vlog, Kristel talked about why she thought Suhyuk was “The One.” She said that you just get that feeling, and you’ll just know it. “<em>Nakita ko sa kanya ’yung</em> dream guy <em>ko</em> and then<em> nakita niya rin sa’kin ’yung </em>dream girl <em>niya</em>,” she shared. Commenting on what naysayers are thinking—that they got married too soon—Kristel was blunt in saying that she thought long and hard about her decision, and it just felt right considering they’re at the right age and are both “financially stable and ready to start a family.” Their love story has made her believe in destiny. </p><div><br/></div><div style="text-align:center"><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1747240276500DSC07302.jpg" style="width:700px" class="fr-fic fr-dib"/></div><div style="text-align:center"><br/></div><div style="text-align:center"><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1747240323111DSC07391.jpg" style="width:700px" class="fr-fic fr-dib"/></div><div><br/></div><div style="text-align:center"><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1747240212282_DSC08160.jpg" style="width:700px" class="fr-fic fr-dib"/></div><div style="text-align:center"><br/></div><p>“<em>Paano ko ba nasabi na</em> dream guy <em>ko siya</em>? <em>Alam niyo ang dami kong na</em>-meet <em>na</em> guys <em>sa</em> showbiz.<em> Ang gugwapo </em>and<em> ang yayaman</em>. <em>Pero alam ko na</em> he’s The One <em>kasi</em> he’s the only man I’ve ever imagined having kids with,” Kristel opened up on social media. </p><p>Their road to the altar was smooth-flowing because they were together every step of the way: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/KristelFulgar/videos/2119882005116251" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">wedding venue ocular, food tasting, and suit fittin</a>g (where Kristel really guided Suhyuk in selecting his ensemble). Traditionally, the bride doesn’t let the groom see her gown, so it’d surprise him. But <a href="https://www.facebook.com/KristelFulgar/videos/1295864301485564" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Kristel let go of that tradition and enlisted Suhyuk’s help in choosing her gowns</a>, too. You know that K-drama scene where there’s this spacious fitting room and the bride-to-be tries on gowns while her groom waits for the curtains to be opened to reveal his lovely fiancée? Yep, that’s what they did, and they both enjoyed the process.</p><div><br/></div><div style="text-align:center"><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1747240476571DSC08118.jpg" style="width:700px" class="fr-fic fr-dib"/></div><div style="text-align:center"><br/></div><div style="text-align:center"><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1747240614129DSC09756.jpg" style="width:700px" class="fr-fic fr-dib"/></div><div style="text-align:center"><br/></div><div style="text-align:center"><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1747240821950DSC09863.jpg" style="width:700px" class="fr-fic fr-dib"/></div><div style="text-align:left"><br/></div><p>They did the food tasting together, along with Kristel&#x27;s family. Their wedding menu featured the following: Herbs Marinated Salmon Rolled in Crab Meat, Truffle Mushroom Cream Soup, Fillet Beef Tenderloin Steak with Special French Sauce, Japanese Food Chef’s Handmade Sushi, Korean Noodles Soup, and Cheesecake with Coffee.</p><p>The two also had <a href="https://www.facebook.com/KristelFulgar/videos/1125288566293901" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">a traditional Korean-style pre-nup shoot</a>, and each layout exuded an impeccable aesthetic—simple yet stunningly romantic. </p><div><strong>We can’t get enough of Kristel Fulgar and Suhyuk’s weddings! So, here are the details and elements we loved about them:</strong></div><div><br/></div><div style="text-align:center"><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1747241007811DSC00349.jpg" style="width:700px" class="fr-fic fr-dib"/></div><div style="text-align:center"><br/></div><div style="text-align:center"><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1747241076393DSC00104.jpg" style="width:700px" class="fr-fic fr-dib"/></div><div><br/></div><div><br/></div><div><strong>Kristel’s wedding gowns</strong></div><p>Kristel vlogged about her wedding gown fitting, and what her off-the-rack options had in common was that they were all ball gowns. It’s a silhouette that fits her petite frame perfectly. She shared <a href="https://www.facebook.com/reel/675115035012382/?s=single_unit" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">a video where she rated the gowns she didn’t pick</a>, and it could be surmised that she wanted something that struck the right balance between simplicity and bedazzled elegance. We think her final choices for the church ceremony, the wedding hall ceremony, and the reception met that stylish combination. </p><p>For the church wedding, she picked an intricately embellished jewel neck ball gown with short sleeves. She went for something more romantic and frothy for the wedding hall ceremony, donning a creation that featured a mix of an illusion neckline with an off-shoulder, sweetheart neckline, and a heavily beaded bodice that cascaded elegantly into a sparkly ball gown. Her reception dress was much simpler yet tastefully designed: an off-shoulder sheath adorned with silver beads.</p><div><br/></div><div style="text-align:center"><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1747241394973KNE02985.jpg" style="width:700px" class="fr-fic fr-dib"/></div><div style="text-align:center"><br/></div><div style="text-align:center"><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1747241434053KNE04448.jpg" style="width:700px" class="fr-fic fr-dib"/></div><div><br/></div><div style="text-align:center"><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1747241328255DSC08612.jpg" style="width:700px" class="fr-fic fr-dib"/></div><div><br/></div><div style="text-align:center"><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1747241250792DSC07614.jpg" style="width:700px" class="fr-fic fr-dib"/></div><div><br/></div><div style="text-align:center"><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1747241204254DSC00027.jpg" style="width:700px" class="fr-fic fr-dib"/></div><div><br/></div><div style="text-align:center"><span class="fr-img-caption fr-fic fr-dib" style="width:700px"><span class="fr-img-wrap"><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1747241498613DSC09556.jpg" style="width:700px" class="fr-fic fr-dib"/><span class="fr-inner">Suhyuk and Kristel Fulgar with NicePrint Photo&#x27;s Jibby and Charisse Tinio</span></span></span></div><div><br/></div><div><br/></div><div><strong>The wedding hall venue</strong></div><p>K-drama fans are all too familiar with this type of venue. A traditional Korean wedding today happens in a wedding hall where the aisle is in the middle, surrounded by round tables for the guests. Their wedding venue of choice was Luna Miele in South Korea, and it looked dreamy with the flowers illuminating, softening, and brightening up the luxurious space. </p><div><br/></div><div style="text-align:center"><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1747242035476DSC00008.jpg" style="width:700px" class="fr-fic fr-dib"/></div><div><br/></div><div style="text-align:center"><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1747241789576DSC09931.jpg" style="width:700px" class="fr-fic fr-dib"/></div><div style="text-align:center"><br/></div><div style="text-align:center"><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1747241979618DSC08986.jpg" style="width:700px" class="fr-fic fr-dib"/></div><div><br/></div><div style="text-align:center"><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1747241715314KNE06819.jpg" style="width:700px" class="fr-fic fr-dib"/></div><div style="text-align:center"><br/></div><div style="text-align:center"><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1747241886574DSC08953.jpg" style="width:700px" class="fr-fic fr-dib"/></div><div style="text-align:center"><br/></div><div><br/></div><div><strong>The bride’s glowing beauty look</strong></div><p>Kristel is known as a beauty vlogger who takes skincare seriously. It’s no surprise she was extra radiant on her big day. She went for a Korean-style makeup: natural-looking lashes, thin black liner that subtly punctuated her eyes, a hint of shimmer on her lower lashline, and pink, glossy lips. She complemented her makeup style with an effortlessly chic updo, her hair styled with a thin, bejeweled headband. But no doubt, what we loved most about Kristel’s bridal beauty look was her glass skin!  </p><div><br/></div><div style="text-align:center"><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1747242090415_DSC08081.jpg" style="width:700px" class="fr-fic fr-dib"/></div><div style="text-align:center"><br/></div><div style="text-align:center"><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1747242118337_DSC07915.jpg" style="width:700px" class="fr-fic fr-dib"/></div><div style="text-align:center"><br/></div><div style="text-align:center"><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1747242183457DSC07856.jpg" style="width:700px" class="fr-fic fr-dib"/></div><div style="text-align:center"><br/></div><div style="text-align:center"><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1747242301536DSC09663.jpg" style="width:700px" class="fr-fic fr-dib"/></div><div><br/></div><div style="text-align:left"><br/></div><div style="text-align:left"><strong>The photo shoot in the bride’s waiting area</strong></div><p>It’s truly fascinating to see different wedding traditions. This space is often seen in K-dramas: the bride’s waiting area where photo shoots with the guests are usually done. This also makes the ideal spot for the couple’s wedding portraits.
