Comedian Kim Hye-sun revealed the story of having to live as a young female head of household after her parents passed away while she was in elementary school.
Kim appeared on MBN's 'Special Report: The World,' which aired on the 22nd.
The broadcast featured Kim’s younger sister, Sera, visiting the couple’s home to celebrate the birthday of Kim’s husband, Stephan.
While looking at recent photos of her nephews and nieces shown by her sister, Kim remarked, “They eat well.” She then said to her sister, “We couldn’t even eat things like that. Do you remember how we used to mix sugar water and drink it just to feel full?”
In an interview with the production team, Kim said, “My parents passed away early when I was young.” She added, “We didn’t have any relatives to rely on, so my younger sister and I grew up together with the help of a facility. My biggest concern at the time was ‘how can I survive?’”
Kim became a young female head of household caring for her younger brother, who is one year her junior. She said, “When we were in elementary school, my younger brother and I delivered newspapers together.” She continued, “In high school, I got a job at a factory and sent allowance to my younger brother once a month. I worked two jobs, sometimes three.”
