"We're so happy to finally share that we're engaged," Buchanan posted on Instagram Thursday.

"This is such a special moment in our lives, the closing of one chapter and celebrating the continuation of another. We're so grateful for the love and support, and though we're partial to having our private moments, we're excited to share this check-in to our world."

The social-media announcement has already gotten more than 1 million "likes."

Netflix posted a photo on X of the smiling couple at the premiere with the caption: "COBRA CRYING BECAUSE TANNER BUCHANAN & MARY MOUSER ARE ENGAGED."

"We're matchmakers first, showrunners second," said writer-producer Jon Hurwitz.

"Our primary goal with Cobra Kai was for Daniel LaRusso's daughter and Johnny Lawrence's son to fall in love in real life. Mission accomplished. So happy for them! A perfect couple! #CobraKai #TrueLove."

Ralph Macchio and William Zabka originally played high school martial arts rivals Daniel and Johnny in the 1984 movie, The Karate Kid, then reprised their roles as senseis in Cobra Kai.

The final episodes of the beloved show began streaming Thursday.
