New groom Lee Sang-yeop revealed his love story with his wife.
Lee Sang-yeop, Lee Seok-hoon, and Lee Jeong appeared as guests on SBS' 'Single for Men with Shoes Off', which aired on the 9th.
Lee Sang-yeop married his non-celebrity lover last April. Lee Sang-yeop is said to have met his current wife through a blind date. Before the blind date, Lee Sang-yeop said he had been watching his wife's SNS for two weeks, which was sent to him by an acquaintance. He said, "Even though I wasn't looking at it, I kept thinking about it. I told my friend that I wanted to meet him in two weeks, got his contact information, and went to pick him up in front of my wife's office." He continued, "(My girlfriend at the time) was waiting, and I turned around and went in. It may feel like I'm overdoing it, but the sight of him putting his hands in his pockets seemed like slow motion. The snow above the collar of his coat was so pretty. It was the snow I saw on social media. “He recalled. He also said, "I stopped the car, said hello, got out, and tried to open the door, but he opened the window and said 'Hello' and just looked at me. I was also out of my mind. (Belatedly) I opened the door," and confessed the fact that he felt attracted to him from the first meeting.
Lee Sang-yeop said, "I worked hard to find a good restaurant and went there. My focus on people kept disappearing. I didn't know where to look." He continued, "Then the first food came out and it was so tasteless. After the first bite, the two of us made eye contact and it seemed like she didn't taste it either. Her eyes were round and she looked at me and she was so pretty."
Lee Sang-yeop said, "We kept in touch without resting so that I wouldn't have to think about anything else. He showed me my day, took pictures of food while chatting with friends, and told me that I like this kind of thing." It is said that the second time we met was on December 24th. When asked if they held hands when they met, he answered, “We held hands.”
After that, the two began dating for about half a year, and it is said that they naturally started talking about marriage in May. Lee Sang-yeop said, “He said he wanted to get married while it was warm. Actually, I also said the same thing.” He continued, "I secretly asked an acquaintance, 'Do you have a wedding date?' I thought there would be a wedding date since it was a year ago, but it was full. Then, I got a call because the people who were supposed to get married had canceled."
Lee Sang-yeop said, "My wife has a cheerful personality. I had to put down a deposit, so as soon as I met her, I asked her, 'I heard it will be on March 24th. Is that okay?' She said yes. When I came to my senses, I found out that I was depositing the deposit." When asked if that was a proposal, Lee Sang-yeop made everyone laugh by saying, "It happened." Regarding his dream marriage, Lee Sang-yeop said, "I hope we can continue as we are now. We are like friends, and no matter what we do, we have the most fun doing it together, and I hope we can stay like this for the rest of our lives." “It would be nice,” I hoped.
