The former Wonder Girls member also said that J.Y. Park sang a congratulatory song at her wedding. "I'm always grateful," she continued.

In response to what Sunye said, J.Y. Park stated that he was worried when Sunye told him that she would be getting married at a young age. "She was going from the leader of the nation's No. 1 girl group to an ordinary housewife," he added.

The hitmaker went on to say that he was happy for her but he also has concerns. Despite having concerns, he believed in Sunye as he knows that she is a responsible person.
