Actress Gong Hyo-jin shared the behind-the-scenes story of the proposal she received from her husband Kevin Oh.

On the 6th, Lee Min-ho and Gong Hyo-jin from tvN‘s ‘Ask the Stars’ appeared as guests on YouTube channel ‘Salty Brother Shin Dong-yup’.

On this day, Gong Hyo-jin mentioned Kevin Oh, saying, “I feel like a newlywed since I’ve become a bear god. I cry every time we break up.”

Shin Dong-yup then said, “I hope you accept it as a gift, saying that (the difficult times) are the most special moments of your life.” When asked about the visit, Gong Hyo-jin replied, “I went to the visit. My family has to pick me up when I go out, so I go.”

When asked who proposed, Gong Hyo-jin said, “It was near the Bukhangang River. One day, he asked me to go for a walk with the dog, so I went. I was sitting outside, eating a hamburger, and playing around when he suddenly said he bought a moving camera and wanted to test it out, so he said he wanted to film me. I thought he was going to film me, and then he suddenly proposed to me.”

He then confessed, “At first, he didn’t have a ring or anything, so I asked, ‘Do you want to marry me?’ and he said, ‘Where’s the ring? I have a ring,’ but he said he didn’t have one. He said, ‘Then try again. It’s invalid, it’s invalid.’ I was disappointed.”

Gong Hyo-jin continued, “Then I went home, and he had prepared everything. He had sprinkled flower petals and written about 10 cards with stories on them. I read them one by one and I burst into tears. He’s a good writer, and he had a story arc.”

Gong Hyo-jin recalled, “I opened the door and went in, and he gave me a ring. Disappointing him was the key. You have to disappoint him first when you propose. I didn’t know I would cry. ”I wondered why other people cried during proposals, but I cried a lot,“ he replied, making everyone laugh.
