Ejae and Samuel Kim hold surprise proposal party in Brooklyn park
Musical artist Ejae accepted a marriage proposal from partner Samuel Kim during a picnic arranged by friends in a Brooklyn park on June 1, 2025.

Relationship began as creative work
The couple first met when a mutual friend arranged a songwriting session at Samuel's home studio in May 2017. They developed a personal connection while working on music and shared interests in anime before their relationship became romantic.
Proposal involved fake dinner setup
Samuel planned a surprise event by coordinating with Ejae's best friend to create the illusion of a dinner invitation. He instead led her to a park where they walked together and viewed photos of their late dog, Honey.
Friends organized picnic in park
After turning a corner during their walk, friends revealed a prepared picnic surrounded by pictures of the couple and their pet. Samuel gave a speech before asking Ejae to marry him, and she accepted the question.
