A famous Korean YouTuber couple has gone viral on X after finally formalizing their union in Thailand. Thailand is one of the rare countries that recognizes homosexual unions. The couple, Mango Couple, who hosts over 312,000 subscribers on their YouTube channel, traveled to Thailand to get their marriage license certified.
The couple shared their thoughts on the matter, taking an interview from a local station for the matter.

Last year, in Korea, we tried to register our marriage as it was our 10th anniversary, but the Korean government did not accept it. So after that, today we came here, and compared to Korea, we felt so much love in this area, so I was so moved and we just teared up.

The couple vowed to take the energy back to Korea to share it with others. Their video on X has since received over 1.7 million views. Same-sex marriage was legalized in Thailand on January 23, 2025, marking a huge significant cornerstone for the LGBTQ+ community.
