Actress who opened up about her poor childhood, unlike the image
A female actress revealed her difficult past, becoming a hot topic. She is actress Kim Nam-joo, who entered the entertainment industry after being selected as Miss Korea Gyeonggi Province in 1992.
He debuted as an actor afterward and surprised everyone by revealing that despite his glamorous and sophisticated image, he had a difficult childhood in the past.
He lost his father when he was three years old and had a poor childhood. His family was so struggling financially that they relied on rice distributions from the community service center to get by.
His mother, who was 33 at the time, raised him and his four siblings alone. It was so difficult that those around him recommended sending the children to an orphanage, but his mother showed strong maternal love, saying she would live and survive together with them.
Having spent a poor childhood, he debuted with the thought that he needed to earn a lot of money. He succeeded during his rookie days and vowed that his children would not grow up struggling.
He also revealed that he went on his first trip in his life after his debut with the drama filming team. He said, "I went on my first trip with the 'Nungool Jae Gulron Dang Shin' team," and "In the past, travel was a luxury for me and only possible for relaxed people."
A harmonious family filling the void left by dad
He lost his father early, and not only was he poor, but the void left by his father also always remained deep in his heart. He said that he believed he succeeded as an actor thanks to his father.
He said, "After becoming an actor, I performed my father's memorial rites and was traveling back from the countryside when I suddenly felt like my father was riding next to me. I actually muttered to myself, 'Dad, you're riding next to me, right?' and then I started crying. With a grateful heart. Because I'm doing well, I feel like my dad is watching over me."
He said, "I always think that way. Maybe my father is fulfilling his dreams through me. I thought that my dad in heaven is helping me a lot."
He also mentioned her husband, Kim Seung-woo. He said, "Since I didn't have a father, I feel both jealous and very happy when I see my husband treating our daughter and son well. Just being able to give the love of a father that I couldn't receive to my children is enough. The very presence of a father is a tremendous thing for the children. I feel like I am providing a happy family."
