Actress Yoo Hye-jung opened up about the pain she experienced after her divorce.
Yoo Hye-jung and her daughter appeared on the MBN show ‘Body Insight’ aired on the 11th.
Yoo Hye-jung recalled her past, mentioning that she ran a clothing store for 15 years after her divorce and that “there were truly many difficult things.” She added, “My daughter was only 7 years old when we divorced, which is so young, and since it was my first time experiencing such a thing, I couldn’t handle it. I was very worried that my daughter would struggle.”
Her daughter showed a mature side, saying, “I don’t think I took it seriously back then. My mom and dad were so good to me that I just thought they were staying apart for a while. So, I’m grateful to both of them.”
Yoo Hye-jung said, “My daughter speaks calmly, but I felt something. She wasn’t always bright. One day, I got a call from her teacher saying she was struggling to get along with her friends. It felt like the sky was falling.”
After that, Yoo Hye-jung tried her best to get close to other parents by attending parent meetings. She said, “I thought that the longer I sat among the parents, the better my daughter would be able to get along with her friends.”
Meanwhile, Yoo Hye-jung married baseball player Seo Yong-bin in 1999 and gave birth to a daughter the following year, but they divorced in 2007.
