'KPop Demon Hunters' singer-songwriter Ejae ties knot with producer Sam Kim

Korean American singer-songwriter Ejae, known for the OST “Golden” from Netflix’s KPop Demon Hunters, married music producer–composer Sam Kim in an outdoor ceremony Saturday at a multipurpose cultural space on the former residence site of her maternal grandfather, veteran actor Shin Young‑kyun, Vogue reports. The couple—who met during a 2017 music session and became engaged in June last year—moved a planned California wedding forward by about a month and tied the knot after four months of preparation that had been delayed by promotional schedules and award‑show appearances; Ejae, a former SM trainee, has songwriting credits including Red Velvet’s “Psycho” and aespa’s “Drama.”
