Lee Seung-yeop (44), who transformed from’National Batter’ to commentator, delivered the news of his third son, and his wife Lee Song-jeong (38) is also hot.
Seung-yeop Lee first met Lee Song-jung, a 20-year-old new model at the Andre Kim Fashion Center. Lee Song-jeong received as many love calls as he had just stepped into the entertainment industry, but left them all behind and chose to marry Lee Seung-yeop at the young age of twenty-one.
In the baseball industry, there is a lot of evaluation that Lee Seung-yeop’s wife Lee Song-jung’s housework was great until he did not lose the title of’national hitter’ for a long period of time without major curves.
Suddenly, after 18 years of marriage, Lee Song-jung, who became the mother of three brothers, was from Miss Korea in 1999 and was a preliminary star who passed the special screening for the theater and film department at Chung-Ang University.
When I first met Seung-yeop Lee, I was in the third year of high school, but the future was so rosy that I was immediately selected by Andre Kim. However, it wasn’t just the entertainment industry that sent him a love call. Lee Seung-yeop, a shy twenty-five young man, made a bold dash to Lee Song-jung, who fell in love at first sight. Lee Seung-yeop said, “I first got my wife’s number through acquaintances. I was surprised to learn that I was a high school student.”
Lee Song-jung said, “At the time, I was a lot younger and I wasn’t in age when I decided to marry at a young age after appearing on an entertainment program in the past. I also liked it a lot. I think I was brave because I didn’t know.”
“I knew my husband was a famous baseball player, but I didn’t know much about baseball. He said his position was a midfielder, but he believed that word. “Especially, he said he would go to the American Major League after marriage. I was deceived by saying I was going to America In the end, I didn’t go to America.”
After marriage, Lee Dong-jung, who has been devoted to housewives and child-rearing, often visits the stadium of her husband, Lee Seung-yeop, and is seen cheering.
In 2017, at the official retirement ceremony, when Lee Seung-yeop ended his active career, he was thrilled.
Not only the housewife, but also her appearance that brightly illuminates the baseball field has attracted a lot of attention. In 2004, when Lee Seung-yeop was active in Japan, he was selected as 50 beautiful wives of world sports stars by a Japanese weekly magazine. In addition, actor Yoo Hana, who married baseball player Lee Yong-gyu, directly picked “Song-jeong Lee, the number one beauty among baseball player wives.”
