[Asia Economy Intern Reporter Min Jun-young] Singer Lee Beom-hak revealed the recent status of his wife, who is 13 years younger than him.

On the 22nd, singer Lee Beom-hak, known for the 1990s hit "Ibyeol Anin Ibyeol" (A Breakup That Is Not a Breakup), appeared on TV Chosun's documentary program "Life Documentary My Way."

During the broadcast, Lee Beom-hak disclosed that he has been running a seafood restaurant for six years with his wife Kim Hye-rim, who is 13 years younger than him.

He said, "My wife was the one who first suggested opening the restaurant," adding, "She manages the kitchen, and I take care of the dining area."

He proudly stated, "Although my wife doesn't have a certification, she cooks very well."

Recalling their first meeting, he said, "She originally worked in event planning. I was invited as a guest singer to an event she planned, and I thought she was really great. So I made the first move."

He continued, "After the performance, I asked her to meet separately. Without much push and pull, she agreed, and we have been living happily ever since."

He also shared that he recently formed the "Lee Beom-hak Band" and has been practicing with juniors.

He said, "I debuted as part of a band called 'I Saek Ji Dae' (Different Zone). By chance, I met juniors who shared my views, and we have been practicing together."

He added, "I even received a new song as a gift from Jeon Young-rok," explaining, "My wife suffered from depression while working at the restaurant. She was a fan of Jeon Young-rok hyung-nim and wanted to go to his concert. I took her, and her depression improved. After going once more, she was completely cured."

Lee Beom-hak debuted in 1991 as a member of the group "I Saek Ji Dae" and became a solo artist the same year.

He later released his first album "Ibyeol Anin Ibyeol" and won the MBC Top 10 Singers Award for Best New Artist in his debut year.
