According to Allkpop, Moon Hee Jun and Soyul's wedding was held at Shilla Hotel in Seoul, where a number of celebrities were in attendance. Contrary to their initial plan to hold a private ceremony, the couple decided to include their fans for the memorable moment.

Hence, Moon Hee Jun clarified the issue and apologized to his fans during their wedding press conference. The singer humbly acknowledged how the statement might have hurt his fans.
"I would like to say to my upset fans that regardless of whether or not something is true, I should have done better. I also want to say that I'm so sorry," he said as per Soompi.
The H.O.T. member said he will continue his career with a grateful heart towards his fans who have been his pillar of strength for the past 20 years.
Prior to his personal apology, Moon Hee Jun also posted a lengthy statement about the issue on his fan café. The singer said he is saddened that some of his fans are accusing him of treating them as cash machines.
He admitted being scared of the thought that fans may no longer believe in him because of the recent controversy. Despite that, most of the fans cheered him up and congratulated Moon Hee Jun for marrying Soyul.
