Basketball legend Hyun Joo-yup said he wants to improve his relationship with his son.
Hyun Joo-yup, who served as a basketball commentator and coach after retiring as a Korean basketball legend, shared his recent status on TV CHOSUN's "Dad and Me Season 3," which aired on the 14th.
On this day, Hyun Joo-yeop said that his relationship with his son became distant after the controversy over negligence of work and overuse of power. His son Jun-hee said he took a leave of absence from school and received psychiatric treatment, which made him sad.
Hyun Joo-yeop served his son a meal and asked him about his schedule. Jun-hee said, "I decided to meet my friend later," and added, "It's convenient because I don't go to school." It was hard. He said he had been discharged from the psychiatric hospital for about three or four months, and Hyun Joo-yeop continued to ask questions in an awkward state.
Jun-hee said, "To be honest, I had a little uncomfortable feeling. When there was an incident, it was so hard that I had really bad thoughts, and I was alone because the situation was not good, and I was lonely because I didn't get along with my family. I never encountered my father when I was having a hard time, and I was always alone, so I thought why he was pretending to take care of me now," he said.
In response, Hyun Joo-yup said, "I didn't think much about my family because I had a hard time before, but I think I can think that I like my son less or am loved less, so I'm trying to express it actively these days," and added, "I think it will take time to open my heart, and I think it will get better if I try."
In particular, Jun-hee said he decided to play basketball in the Han River with his friend, and said, "I don't have any regrets (in basketball), but that's all I can think of doing with him." Hyun Joo-yup added, "It was good to go out to meet my friend, and when I heard that I was playing basketball, I thought I didn't completely abandon basketball, so I was quite happy inside."
