On 'Day & Night,' singer Byun Seung-yeop spoke frankly about his fourth marriage.

In the 25th episode of MBN's talk show 'Kim Ju-ha's Day & Night,' broadcast on the 16th, trot singer Byun Seung-yeop appeared.

That day, Byun Seung-yeop spoke about his recent confession of his fourth marriage after 15 years. Regarding the reason for going public, he explained, "I felt it was time to reveal it now. Before, I didn't want to be talked about by others, so I lived in seclusion."

Kim Ju-ha said, "You didn't announce your third marriage either, but it became known because you held a wedding. This time, you didn't hold a wedding." In response, Byun Seung-yeop said, "Marriage is like that. It's not something I can control how many times it happens. Even though I lived hard, such things kept happening, and I experienced the sorrow of partings many times. Every time we parted, I would vow, 'I must never love again,' yet I would meet someone else, get married, and that happened many times. In my current situation, I simply didn't tell anyone. I wasn't lying. I just wanted to live an ordinary life. I didn't want to go through the failures and pain of the past. I wanted to live an ordinary life away from people's attention."

Regarding his wife, Byun Seung-yeop said, "In the past, I couldn't maintain a long marriage and divorced for various reasons. (My current wife) is the person who suffered the most and the one I couldn't do enough for. Although she won't say it, she must have found it very difficult inside not to constantly talk about her existence to others. So, I now feel confident that it's okay to reveal this." He expressed his gratitude.

Continuing, he recalled their first meeting: "It was a long time ago. We didn't meet as a man and woman; my wife was good at water sports and was a representative athlete for Seoul. So, I knew her as an older brother or younger brother while doing hobbies. She lived in Japan and came back, and we got in touch again. She said she didn't get married because of me and kept living alone. Later, I learned the truth behind that."

Byun Seung-yeop added, "At that time, I wasn't even confident enough to meet someone, but when I understood her feelings, I thought, 'I'm nobody, yet she's waiting for me.' So, we decided to be together, but I didn't want to tell anyone and wanted to keep it hidden. Also, I was afraid of being alone again."

Byun Seung-yeop also spoke frankly about divorce. He said, "I never initiated a divorce. I never divorced according to my own will. When the other party said they wanted to divorce, I tried to dissuade them, but in the end, that was all I could do."

He continued, "I must have been lacking. At that time, I really couldn't understand it. I'm the type who treats women well. I'm family-oriented and good at it. Every time such things happened, I would think, 'I shouldn't treat women too well.'"

Meanwhile, Byun Seung-yeop married in 1998 and had one son and two daughters, but divorced after seven years of marriage. He remarried in 1996 to the late singer Gil Eun-jeong, but the marriage ended after seven months. Afterward, Byun Seung-yeop remarried a third wife, who was a makeup artist, and had two daughters, but they later divorced.
