Oftentimes, marriage takes a lot of compromise and sacrifice in order to make things work. This is the lesson former U-KISS member Eli and his wife has learned. In a recent episode of "Mr. House Husband," Eli's wife revealed one big sacrifice she made in order to give the singer the best material gift.

In that same episode, Eli and his wife were looking for a new home, since the lease on their current house would soon expire, allkpop reported. The couple had some specific items on their list: Eli wanted a big living room with a nice view, while his wife wanted a good tub in which to give their baby a bath.

Since the houses for rent in Seoul were expensive, Eli and his wife had to make some adjustments and resort to houses outside of Seoul, which were more reasonably priced for their budget. When the singer expressed disappointment at this decision, Eli's wife comforted him and revealed a huge secret.

"Sometime ago, to buy the foreign car you wanted, I had to sell 10 of my most cherished handbags. I cried so much after that. You didn't know that, right?" Eli's wife shared.

Eli married his wife, who is a model and 11 years his senior, on June 5, 2014. Their son was born  in June 2016.

According to allkpop, Eli revealed that he first met his wife at a car gathering. He was the first to express his feelings for his wife who, at that time, did not share the same feelings for the singer. He asked her out for a year, and as he persisted on sincerely confessing his feelings for her, his wife eventually accepted him.

"We loved each other so much, we ended up filing our marriage first, and now we're happily living life with a child," Eli said about their marriage.
