[아시아경제 노우래 기자] What does Lydia Ko (New Zealand, photo), future daughter-in-law of the ‘Hyundai Family’ do outside the golf course?

Golf Digest of the United States released an interview about Lydia Ko’s daily life on the 27th (local time). “I like to cook,” Lydia Ko said in an interview. “I think it’s very different from golf.” “I spend most of my time in the kitchen,” said Lydia Ko, who said, “Sometimes my mom and my fiance say, ‘Can I stay in the kitchen? Aren’t you supposed to take a break? “For me, cooking in the kitchen is something to relax,” he smiled broadly.

Lydia Ko, who is currently ranked 5th in the world, is a ‘genius golfer’. Since his amateur days, he has been on the professional stage and even climbed to ‘Number 1’. She debuted on the LPGA Tour in 2014 and has swept 17 career wins, including two majors. He has 23 wins in the US and Europe.

Lydia Ko is serious about cooking. I often watch videos of world famous culinary researcher Gordon Ramsay. He is famous as a fan of domestic cooking programmes. I especially enjoy Korean food. He is a fan of Korean food such as soy sauce crab and roasted black pork. Enjoy a variety of Korean TV programs. He even went to a broadcasting station to watch ‘Comedy Big League’ and ‘Gag Concert’.

Whenever I have free time, I often watch Netflix. My favorite actor is Hallyu star Kim Soo-hyun. In 2015, after meeting Kim Soo-hyun and taking a commemorative photo, I couldn’t hide my excitement as a girl. He also posted on social networking service (SNS) Instagram, “I’m a huge fan of Kim Soo-hyun,” and said, “I was so happy and nervous to meet him.”

Lydia Ko will get married on December 30 at Myeongdong Cathedral in Jung-gu, Seoul. Jung Jun is the only son of Chung Tae-young, vice chairman of Hyundai Card. Lydia Ko’s religion is Catholicism, and her baptismal name is Lydia. The newlyweds plan to build a home in the United States. Lydia Ko continued her professional career after marriage. “I don’t know how long I will be able to continue my career, but even if I get married, my career as an athlete will not change,” said Lydia Ko.
