Jina and Mike were brought together by God through a godly couple (Inna and Joshua!) who set them up on a blind date in Pohang, a beautiful city by the East Coast of Korea. Jina refused her friend's requests many times to meet this guy whose name was 'Mike', but she ultimately said ‘yes’ only because she wanted to stop her friend from match-making. On a cool summer evening, the four met at an Italian restaurant. Mike only remembers Jina's wonderful smile and graceful presence at this dinner. Later, Joshua and Inna conveniently went home and left Mike and Jina to get to know each other better. They spent the rest of the evening in Sunrise Park asking each other deep questions and discussing their lives. Mike could not believe that someone so beautiful, smart, and kind could be single still. Mike was teaching at Handong International School and Jina was studying at Handong International Law School. They continued meeting 'secretly' in the Handong campus. It was clear to Mike from the start that he had been blessed with a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity and he should not mess it up. Jina fell in love with Mike's warm smiles and gradually became confident that Mike was the guy that she could give her heart to as he showed his sincere affection toward her. About a month later, after much conversation, thought and prayer, Mike and Jina became officially a couple. It's by God's grace that they are together today and are planning to make a public covenant to be together for the rest of their lives.
