Lee Yu-ri Reveals She Proposed to Her Husband 12 Years Older as She Enters 17th Year of Marriage

Actress Lee Yu-ri will appear as a special teacher on Channel A's variety program 'Groom Class 2', sharing a realistic love story of a couple in their 17th year of marriage.

In the 16th episode of 'Groom Class 2' airing on the 3rd, Lee Yu-ri will appear as a one-day teacher to provide honest advice regarding dating and marriage.

During a recent recording, Lee Yu-ri led a pleasant atmosphere from her entrance, stating, "I have a talent for having fun even without alcohol," and adding, "I am aiming for the position of entertainment manager on 'Groom Class 2'."

In particular, Lee Yu-ri's marriage story drew significant attention during this broadcast. Lee Yu-ri married a pastor who is 12 years older than her in 2010, and is currently in her 17th year of marriage.

She surprised the cast by revealing, "I was the one who asked my husband to date first, and I was also the one who proposed first, which led to our marriage."

In response, Seo Jun-young reacted by saying, "I would actually prefer it if someone did that first," while Kim Sung-soo showed an open attitude, stating, "It doesn't matter which gender goes first."

Regarding her relationship with her husband, Lee Yu-ri said, "Rather than having a fiery, passionate romance, we ended up getting married through the process of getting to know each other. Perhaps that is why I like the present much more. I don't even realize that 17 years have passed."

She went on to express satisfaction with her unchanging marital relationship, conveying that what is important in marriage is not time, but mutual understanding and trust.

Hearing this, Kim Sung-soo drew laughter by sharing the realistic concerns of a single man, saying, "At my age, even if you don't get married, time flies by quickly."

As a loyal viewer of 'Groom Class 2', Lee Yu-ri also offered blunt evaluations of the cast members' attitudes toward dating. After watching Kim Sung-soo and Seo Jun-young, she continued her unfiltered advice, saying, "My chest feels tight, like I have indigestion. It seems like these men don't know women at all."

In particular, she brought laughter by telling her close friend Seo Jun-young, with whom she has worked on two projects in the past, "It shows that you haven't dated much in your life."

In response, 'Principal' Lee Seung-chul increased expectations for Lee Yu-ri's performance by saying, "Watch everything coldly today and pour out all the frustration you've been feeling."
