Regarding her decision to marry, she shared, "Even before we started dating, I confidently expressed my desire to get married. I wanted him to know my intentions, and after some thought, he agreed to date me."

Young-sook highlighted her fiancé's appearance as his most attractive feature, saying, "I find him the most handsome. I was drawn to his looks from our first date. Our conversations are enjoyable, and time flies when we're together." Reflecting on her tendency to fall in love quickly, she noted, "I fall fast but stay committed for a long time. That hasn't changed. In the early stages of our relationship, he was more proactive."

While discussing her fiancé, Young-sook became emotional, revealing, "There was a time when I felt depressed and didn't leave the house. He was a great support during that period."

Born in 1992, Young-sook candidly discussed her plans for children with her fiancé, who is five years her senior. She expressed, "I definitely want to have two children," while her fiancé mentioned, "I'm fine with just the two of us." Young-sook added with a smile, "He said if I want children, we can have them, so I've decided to follow my heart."

Young-sook also shared a humorous anecdote from their wedding preparations. "We haven't fought during the planning, but I did get scolded for something unrelated," she said, referring to an incident involving alcohol. "I made repeated mistakes after drinking, causing him trouble. I wasn't upset about being scolded; he just told me not to drink like that again," she admitted with a laugh.

Meanwhile, Young-sook previously introduced herself on the ENA and SBS Plus show 'I Am SOLO', stating, "I graduated from Korea University with a bachelor's, master's, and Ph.D. in science and engineering. I work as a research professor, focusing on developing treatments for cancer patients."
