Actor Lee Sang Yeob recently opened up about his wife on the TV CHOSUN program "Gourmet Mukbang Trip."

Appearing as a guest on the June 16 broadcast, Lee shared his story of how he met his spouse.

Lee revealed that he was introduced to his wife by a friend.

"A friend of mine introduced her to me. I got a picture of her, and she was so beautiful. She seemed to be very fancy, to the point where I believed she was out of reach.",

Struck by her beauty in a photo, Lee initially felt she was "out of reach."

However, this didn't stop him from wanting to meet her.

"After seeing her picture, I couldn't stop looking at it every day. That's when I thought I should meet her, whether or not things turn out well between us. Since the day we first met until we tied the knot, I've always made it a point to visit her after wrapping up the day's filming, no matter how early or late it ended."

Lee's determination paid off.

He described making an effort to visit his wife after filming ended each day, regardless of how late it was.

This dedication continued even after they were married. Lee shared a story about forgetting to get flowers for his wife on Couples' Day, a Korean holiday for married couples.

"Yesterday (May 21) was Couples' Day. I didn't know about it until my wife sent me a message to celebrate the occasion. After reading her message, I felt I should get her some flowers. So I arranged for the flowers to be delivered to the restaurant where we were to have dinner. When I returned home without any flowers, my wife was disappointed. She said, 'Oh? No flowers for me?'. Even though I knew the misunderstanding would be soon over, I couldn't bear it. I wanted to let her know that I got flowers for her."
