He met his wife in an expected place that is at an elevator of a corporate seminar. However, his wife came to accompany him to the venue when he just got out of an elevator in an impromptu manner.

During their second encounter, she voluntarily brought him a cup of hot tea, and over the several weeks, she showed interest in him. 

He was there for a finite day, and after the contract ended, he thought he would not meet her again in the future, but destiny had another plan.

He heard from his mutual connection that the “elevator “ lady, a.k.a his wife, was interested in him, and they went out for a movie for their first evening get-together.

The couple is happily enjoying their married life with their two children, a son, and a daughter. Gad once satirically replied to a user; despite his wife being a biological woman, she identifies herself as a Korean man on Twitter. So, he is in an interracial same-sex marriage.
