Lee Da-hae and SE7EN: The Pregnancy Surprise That Made Him Cry

Lee Da-hae recalled preparing a restaurant surprise to tell SE7EN she was pregnant—and watching her husband burst into tears once he understood the gift. Her account, discussed on tvN STORY’s 남겨서 뭐하게, is at the center of our Korean post about the couple’s family plans.

Why They Disagreed About Having Children

The actress said SE7EN had talked about children while they were still dating. She remembered questioning why they were planning a baby before they had even married. Their different expectations led to arguments, rather than an immediate shared plan.

In the televised conversation, she connected his enthusiasm to growing up in a large extended family. The couple married in 2023 after a long relationship, and her later account describes how that earlier disagreement became part of the story they tell about becoming parents.

A Gift During Dinner

Lee said she did not tell SE7EN immediately after seeing the test result. Instead, she booked a restaurant and prepared a gift containing the test. She asked him to close his eyes for a prayer before bringing out the surprise.

At first, he did not recognize what he was looking at. Once he understood, he cried so much that Lee initially laughed at his reaction. Recalling the moment, she described becoming emotional herself when they embraced.

How Their Daily Life Changed

The Korean post describes a busy performance schedule for SE7EN and a slower pace of work for Lee. She joked that, when he came home, his attention went straight to the baby as he became fascinated by feeling movements.

She also recalled the excitement in his family. Her father-in-law was particularly delighted and gave her flowers, a gesture she remembered as unusual and touching.

These moments come from her earlier television account of the announcement and the couple’s preparations for parenthood.
