Congratulations to the couple!
In a powerful and heartfelt social media post, The Iron Squad W star Kwak Sun Hee has publicly come out as a member of the LGBTQ+ community—becoming one of the few female celebrities in Korea to do so. She also introduced her same-sex partner, marking a bold step forward for representation in the Korean entertainment industry.
On July 13, 2025, Kwak took to her personal Instagram to share a series of affectionate photos featuring her and her partner. Alongside the carousel of candid moments, including casual date nights, shopping trips, and photobooth snaps, she captioned the post: “Stunning Day by Day and this is who we R.”
In a lighthearted tone, she added, “I, too, want to try this thing called #lovestagram… ^^7,” confirming that the woman featured in the photos is her girlfriend.
Fans and fellow celebrities quickly flooded the comments with messages of love, pride, and support.
Kwak went one step further by revealing a joint Instagram account she now shares with her partner, signaling the start of their public “couplegram.” While she had previously kept her personal life private, this bold move has been widely applauded for its honesty and courage.
Kwak first captured public attention as the commanding and charismatic team leader of the Army squad on Channel A’s reality competition series The Iron Squad W, which aired last year. Her strength, leadership, and sincerity made her a breakout favorite among viewers.
