Actor Han Sang-jin revealed his love story with his wife, director Park Jeong-eun.

On the 21st, a video titled "Asking Han Sang-jin, the 'King of Behind-the-Scenes Support' Who Followed His Wife Director Park Jeong-eun to Busan, Honestly [Battery Han Sang-jin]" was released on the YouTube channel 'Bae Ji-hyun'.

On that day, regarding his busy recent schedule, Han said, "I have about four programs I'm hosting and two dramas starting," adding, "I haven't had a single day off until the end of September."

Currently residing in Busan, he stated, "The people I need come to Busan. Nowadays, content and dramas are not always filmed exclusively in Seoul." He further remarked, "In fact, since moving to Busan, I've become healthier. To stay fit, I'm exercising diligently."

He also opened up about his first meeting with his wife, director Park Jeong-eun. Han began by saying, "At the time, I was unknown, while my wife was a top figure in women's basketball when South Korea ranked fourth globally. I've always loved basketball."

Continuing, he explained, "I was performing when my wife sat in the audience. A junior colleague told me they had given her an invitation ticket. Since that junior knew my wife well, we arranged a meal together."

He also honestly shared their modest financial situation back then. He laughed, saying, "I only brought 100,000 won with me at the time, so I didn't eat anything. I told them I was on a diet."

He added, "When we broke up, I gave her pheasant honeycomb candy. But surprisingly, I liked her even more after our breakup." He recalled, "The next day, I asked my junior for her contact information, but they initially refused. Still, as we exchanged messages, we grew closer."

Han said, "My wife was staying at the National Sports Training Center in Taereung, and we would walk back and forth separated only by a wire fence between the gates. A reporter must have seen us during that time," noting, "That was shortly after we had met."

He continued, "One day I saw my photo in the newspaper. It appeared on the front page with the headline 'Marriage Confirmed.' That's when we immediately held a formal meeting of families and began preparing for marriage." He recalled their busy dating and wedding process, saying, "Even during our engagement period, we couldn't meet more than ten times."
