[Python] I can't see if my python-mysql connection is active

I'm using python and I'm trying to make a connection to a MySQL db. The problem is that when I run this code:

import mysql.connector
print('Attempting connection to database...')

con = mysql.connector.connect(
host="localhost",
user="root",
password="root"
)

print(con)


The terminal doesn't shows me the print. I've been debugging and I noticed that the program executes till the line 7 then jumps directly to the line 4 and finish the execution. I don't know if this behavior is normal but I'd like to know how to solve this, please
