“I am a divorced man with three sons…” Lim Chang-jung’s 18-year-old wife Seo Ha-yan’s first heartfelt confession



Im Chang-jung (48), who suffered the pain of divorce once, and Seo Ha-yan, who have been married for 6 years, confessed their feelings for the first time. Seo Baek, 30, appeared on SBS ‘Same Bed, Dream 2 – You Are My Destiny’ on the 28th, introducing her life as the wife of Chang-jung Lim, 18 years older than her, and a mother of five sons.

According to the broadcast, Lim Chang-jung and Seo Ha-yan first met eight years ago at the store run by Lim Chang-jung. At that time, Lim Chang-jung, who saw Seo White and fell in love with her at first sight, said, “I thought I should get to know him by offering beer as a service. But without realizing it, I said, ‘Please buy me a beer.’” He said, “(her wife) burst out laughing. That was her first meeting,” he recalled. “She came back to her seat pretending to be okay, but her heart continued to race,” she said.

In the beginning of their relationship, Seo Ha-Yan spoke frankly about her feelings after learning about Lim Chang-jung’s divorce and the existence of three children. Seo Ha-Yan said, “It was exhausting. “She didn’t tell anyone,” she said. “I was very worried.” Then Seo Ha-yan said, “But naturally, I talked to the children and introduced them to them at the beginning of the relationship. I was surprised in that aspect, but I think he approached me calmly.”

Seo Ha-yeon explained that her worries melted away when she saw the bright and docile children asking innocent questions at the first meeting. Seo Ha-Yan said, “I’m so grateful that the boys are gentle and follow me well. Those memories are still vivid,” he said, expressing her affection for her children. Lim Chang-jung, who heard this, said, “The children are entering puberty, and they get along very well with their mother. She doesn’t communicate well with me, but she talks to me often,” he added.

The two also revealed their family home for the first time on TV. In the broadcast, Seo Baek also prepared breakfast for Lim Chang-jung and her five sons. For her husband, Lim Chang-jung, who does not eat food once in the refrigerator, Seo Ha-yan prepared a so-called ‘Chang-jeongi Set meal’, which consists of her favorite side dishes. It’s different.” He continued the storm eating show, making Seo Ha-han laugh.

Contrary to expectations, the five sons showed brotherly love by taking care of each other. In particular, the first and second children played affectionately with their younger siblings after meals and skillfully helped prepare for school.
