Lee Ji-hyun, formerly of the group Jewelry, shared her struggles as a single mother.
The the 30th broadcast of MBN's variety show 'Sokpuri Show Dongchimi' was themed 'Do You Know Why You're Not Happy?' and featured Hong Kyung-min, Lee Ji-hyun, and Ko Myung-hwan as guests.
That day, Lee Ji-hyun began by saying, "Since I'm raising the children alone, I have to lead their future by myself."

She continued, "Even I don't know, but when I have to make decisions—about their career paths, futures, or academic matters—I worry about how to guide these children. Those decisions weigh heavily on my shoulders."
Lee Ji-hyun also confessed, "I worry that my children might feel even a little sad because of my judgment, or that they might resent me by saying, 'Mom, why did you do that?' Thinking alone makes me cautious and finds it difficult."
In response, Hong Kyung-min said, "I don't know if this will be comforting, but even if you had a husband, he probably wouldn't have known what to do either," which drew laughter from the audience.
Meanwhile, Lee Ji-hyun married in 2013 and had one son and one daughter but divorced in 2016. She remarried in 2017 but divorced for the second time in 2020. Lee Ji-hyun is currently raising her two children alone.
