In the picturesque setting of Florence, Italy, actress Arden Cho, renowned for her voice work as Rumi in Netflix’s “KPop Demon Hunters,” exchanged vows with orthopedic surgeon Christopher Lee. The couple’s wedding festivities spanned several days, offering a blend of personal significance and cultural homage, witnessed by their closest family and friends.
Arden and Christopher’s love story began on a dating app, leading to a romantic engagement in Maui in March 2025. Their choice of Florence for the wedding was deeply symbolic, marking the city as the backdrop where they recognized each other as their lifelong partners. This intimate connection to the city made it the ideal location for their union.
The celebrations were a harmonious mix of Korean traditions and contemporary style. For the initial welcome events, the couple donned traditional Korean hanbok, honoring their heritage. Arden later changed into a bespoke Vera Wang gown for the ceremony held at the elegant Villa Cora. They also incorporated a traditional pyebaek ceremony, which is a customary Korean wedding ritual, to pay tribute to their roots.
Amidst the joyful celebrations, the couple faced several challenges, including delayed luggage, travel disruptions for some guests, and a heatwave sweeping through Florence. Nonetheless, these obstacles did not overshadow the success and joy of the event, which proceeded as planned.
Arden Cho, who recently gained broader acclaim for her role in “KPop Demon Hunters,” continues to expand her presence in the entertainment industry. She is currently working on producing “Perfect Girl,” an upcoming psychological thriller with a K-pop theme, further solidifying her connection to the vibrant world of Korean pop culture.
