Our Story

It all began when Emma uninvited Ji to a hangout. Despite that rocky start, she soon took Ji on a series of outdoor adventures to test his personality in all kinds of environments, accompanied by her international group of friends. Ji, meanwhile, couldn’t help but be captivated by Emma’s unique charm—especially her love for sledding down snowy mountains on a garbage bag. The rest is history... well, much of it was spent cruising on the Sea to Sky Highway to our favourite place, Squamish. (This line is from Ji..)

We’re so grateful to have found lifelong partners in each other—partners for the thrills we love and the challenges we’ll face. Together, our journey has been filled with laughter, love, and, as you may have witnessed at our engagement party, plenty of ice cream.

Now, we’re beyond excited to begin this next chapter and can’t wait to celebrate it with you by our side!

Emma & Ji’s Favourite Memories

Our first surfing trip together to Tofino—eating instant noodles and surfing in hail. This trip shaped our love for 'type II fun.' Why are we both on the same surfboard? We’re not sure.

Alongside our love for adventure, we cherish the simple moments—like beach walks in our neighborhood, sometimes joined by our favorite pup, Askim. We’d like to think Askim likes us too, but he doesn’t let us pet him as much as we’d like. Hit us up if you need dog walkers!

Our favourite weekend activity

Emma likes to claim she’s the original climber—not Ji—and that she started climbing over a decade ago at Murrin Park. Regardless of who gets the title, we both love spending our weekends climbing together and are always looking to introduce more friends to the sport!

And then... on the first weekend of October, while camping at Porteau Cove, BC,

Ji nervously testing out different angles the night before

The plan was to propose at sunset, but it had to wait due to Emma’s hunger and craving for hotpot.

After a rough night for Ji and the best sleep ever for Emma, Ji popped the question just after sunrise.
