Singer Sean revealed a story about waiting for three years before marrying his wife, Jeong Hye-young.

On the 26th, a video titled "‘I prayed in the early morning, and I received an answer that evening’ | The reason Jeong Hye-young came to believe in God" was released on the YouTube channel 'Lee Sung-mi's I Can't Go.'

On this day, Sean said, "Young people often ask me what kind of prayer for a spouse I made. But I did not make a prayer for a spouse." He added, "If I had, I would have prayed to be introduced to a believing sister in Christ."

Recalling his first meeting with Jeong Hye-young, he said, "I fell in love with Hye-young at first sight. I thought, 'I must marry this woman.' Gratefully, she later opened her heart to me, and we began dating."

However, the two had different views on religion. Sean recalled, "Hye-young was someone who had resentment toward the church and God. She said she would absolutely never go to church."

He explained, "If I had made a prayer for a spouse, I might have thought, 'This woman is not the one.' But I prayed for this woman to come to believe in God."

In particular, Sean revealed, "I prayed with my life on the line, saying, 'I am willing to lay down my life for Hye-young, whom I am dating. Please use me so that she can return to God.' I even prayed, 'There is no parent who does not love their child.'"

He emphasized, however, that he did not force his beliefs on Jeong Hye-young. Sean stated, "I did not try to persuade her, nor did I ask her to go to church. I simply waited for three years."

He continued, "Before the wedding, Hye-young said she could not go to a Protestant church but would be willing to visit a Catholic cathedral once. So for several months, I drove her to the cathedral and picked her up after it was over."

Later, a change came to Jeong Hye-young as well. Sean explained, "When we were returning from the United States to Korea, the pastor of the church we attended told me to look for a certain pastor in Korea. That person was leading Bible studies for female CEOs, and I ended up attending as well."

He shared, "There were so many wonderful people that about a month before our wedding, I said I wanted to introduce Hye-young to them. Hye-young came along with the mindset of meeting some good people."

He also revealed a special anecdote from the wedding preparation process. Sean said, "Don't women have romantic notions about their weddings? I decided to accommodate everything Hye-young wanted. But there were things that did not go as planned." He added, "So we suggested going to the early morning worship service to pray, and Hye-young agreed to go."

He continued, "We went to the early morning worship service together starting one month before the wedding. I later learned that Hye-young had been praying about her wedding dress."

Sean shared, "After a Thursday Bible study ended, one person said to Hye-young, 'If your wedding dress has not yet been settled, I would like to give it to you as a gift.'"

He added, "That person was the designer of the very wedding dress that Hye-young had kept in her heart while praying in the early morning that day. Hye-young was amazed." He recalled, "It was not really a prayer, but she received an answer that evening."

He added, "From then on, Hye-young began to feel, 'Is there really such a person?' and now attends church diligently."

Meanwhile, Sean and Jeong Hye-young married in 2004 and have two sons and two daughters.
