Singer and actor Lee Seung-gi has expressed his high satisfaction with married life, taking on the role of a 'marriage evangelist.'

Appearing on the YouTube channel 'Jo Hyun-ah's Ordinary Thursday Night' on the 20th, Lee Seung-gi spoke candidly about his life after marriage, parenting, and his values as an entertainer.

When host Jo Hyun-ah asked about his life post-marriage, Lee Seung-gi unhesitatingly replied, 'I highly, highly recommend it.' He reminisced, 'There was an age range when I thought I would get married or wanted to get married, and that was exactly between the ages of 36 and 39.'

He emphasized, 'For the first time, I've come to this area (married life), which is a life separate from my profession as an entertainer, purely as 'person Lee Seung-gi.' Experiencing it firsthand, I truly want to recommend marriage.' When Jo Hyun-ah responded with enthusiasm, 'It's a big deal that married life becomes your lifelong journey,' Lee Seung-gi deeply agreed.

Notably, Lee Seung-gi attracted attention by revealing his unique affection for his daughter and his educational philosophy. He stated, 'I don't necessarily want my daughter to excel academically,' and then surprised everyone by adding, 'But I do want to send her to a science high school.' He quickly followed up, 'Actually, it's a projection of myself. When I was in high school, I wanted to go to a specialized or foreign language high school, but I couldn't,' eliciting laughter from the set.

He also shared his current life, deeply immersed in parenting. When asked about the music he enjoys listening to lately, Lee Seung-gi said, 'These days, I only listen to children's songs.' He further revealed his undeniable 'girl dad' side by saying, 'The lyrics of Pinkfong songs are so direct, and I like that.'

Regarding the secret to achieving early success and sustained popularity, Lee Seung-gi cited 'sincerity.' He stated, 'I believe I receive exactly as much as I give.' He added, 'It might sound cliché, but sincerity is the most important thing. If you don't deceive, you can be confident while working and living your life,' revealing his firm beliefs.

Meanwhile, Lee Seung-gi married actress Lee Da-in, daughter of actress Kyeon Mi-ri, in April 2023, and they have a daughter.

Netizens who watched the broadcast commented, 'Listening to Lee Seung-gi makes me want to get married,' 'His doting dad persona is cute,' and 'As expected from Lee Seung-gi, his sincerity is felt,' showing their agreement with his statements.
