Following the steps of singers Chen and Gil Seongjoon who became a group of cool husbands that everyone has been looking forward to this year, Lee Jaehoon posted a lengthy post through his official fan cafe on the 6th of February and confessed that he got married to her girlfriend.
According to a media outlet on the same day, Lee started a family in 2009 after having a relationship with his long-time girlfriend. The couple welcomed their first child in 2013.
"Before I was a popular singer, I wanted to be a man who lived confidently and stylishly," Lee said. "After being an entertainer at a young age and living in the public eye, I became an adult in a state where it's hard to judge what should be revealed in my life and which should be avoided."
"I decided to confess several times not as a child, but as a normal person, I had a very small wedding with only my family and relatives," he said. "That's how I became a father of two children, and I came to this day with something to reveal to the world," he continued.
Many netizens are also expressing their surprise at his first confession in 10 years. Lee Jaehoon's name is drawing keen attention as it got posted on a major portal site's real-time search term.
In addition to Lee Jaehoon recently, there have been many other stars in the entertainment industry who confess that they will be a father soon. EXO Chen announced his marriage on the 13th of January, saying, "I was carefully encouraged because I couldn't wait any longer while thinking about when and how to say it," he said in a release of his handwritten letter. This letter even had much controversy when he reported his marriage and his wife's pregnancy.
Gil Seongjoon appeared with his mother-in-law on Channel A entertainment program "Eye Contact," which aired on the 27th of January. Gil, who had been self-absorbed for three years since the singer got caught driving under the influence of alcohol in 2017, had a promise ceremony three years ago on the same day and had a son two years ago.
"I should be blessed, but I couldn't have a wedding and a stone party," he confessed. The reason for appearing in "Eye Contact," was to get forgiveness and recognition for the singer's mother-in-law.
Seongjoon, who is currently serving in the military, said through his agency on the 3rd of February, "A precious new life has arisen between my ordinary girlfriend, who promised to marry before joining the military." And he rushed to join the army with only legal procedures to proceed quickly.
Sungjoon recently applied for a change of service due to his responsibility for his wife and child, and he will serve in the remaining full-time reserve. Chen, Gil, and Seongjun's confession also surprised many netizens. Both of them are cheered and congratulated because they showed courage and responsibility as husbands and fathers soon.
