Inside the mind of one of K-pop’s brightest stars as he navigates love and career
Kang Daniel Discusses Marriage
Kang Daniel, a celebrated figure in the world of K-pop, recently shared intriguing insights into his thoughts on marriage during an appearance on the popular YouTube channel hosted by Lee Yong Jin. The episode, titled The Tarot Reading of Kang Daniel’s Smile | EP.34, provided fans a glimpse into the personal musings of the star.
In the show, Kang Daniel revealed his contemplations about marriage, saying, “I used to think a lot about getting married, but now I have no such aspirations. It feels like I might never be ready.” This statement provoked a meaningful response from Lee Yong Jin, who confirmed, “Your current interests lie elsewhere, mainly in your career and financial growth.”
The Wisdom of Tarot
During the tarot reading, Lee Yong Jin advised Kang Daniel on temperance, recommending that he occasionally hold back on impulsions to ensure success. “If self-control becomes challenging, surround yourself with trustworthy people,” advised Lee.
Lee further recommended, “What you need is someone to keep a keen eye on your actions, almost like a CCTV, and maybe even another to oversee them like a drone.”
Ideal Marriage Partner
The topic of an ideal partner also came up, with Kang Daniel musing over the personality that would suit him best. “I prefer someone pure, but I wonder who would be right for me.” In response, Lee suggested the opposite: “Instead of similar personalities, perhaps someone different from you would be fitting. Maybe someone calmer and a good listener—a ‘teacher’ who metaphorically taps your shin when you are restless.”
Career Over Romance
Towards the show’s end, Lee gently concluded that both marriage and romance seemed distant prospects for Kang Daniel, at least in the near future. Kang Daniel readily agreed, expressing a commitment to focus on his career for the coming year.
The candid conversation revealed a mature side of Kang Daniel, resonating with many who balance professional ambitions with personal life reflections.
