Heo Young-man then asked why she decided to get married in Korea. Eva Pobiel laughed and said, “I fell in love with my husband at first sight and it took me six months to persuade him.” “‘(You and I) suit each other well, I like you,’ but he said, ‘Can’t we just be sisters?’,“ she mentioned her husband who was not easygoing.

However, Eva Popiel did not give up and said, “No matter how I looked at him, I thought he would suit me well. I liked his sincerity. So I kept talking to him. I said let‘s date and decide if it didn’t work out then. I said how could I know without even trying,” she honestly said that she actively courted him.

When Heo Young-man asked, “Why did your husband eventually fall in love with you?”, Eva answered, “He said, “From the beginning, he thought (I was) okay, but I was too aggressive, so he scared me,“ making everyone laugh.
