Comedian Shin Gi-ru, who recently lost his mother, shared his grief over loss on 'Malja Show'.

In the episode of KBS 2TV's variety program 'Malja Show' aired on the 13th, a funeral director confessed, "I lost my father seven years ago. Since I was so young when I sent him off, I understand those emotions well." He then shared his concern with 'Malja Halmae' Kim Young-hee, expressing his desire to find his own special words of comfort for bereaved family members who are still young in age.

Kim Young-hee responded, "Since you have experienced this yourself, you probably want to offer an extra word of comfort with all your heart and soul," showing empathy toward the person sharing their story. She added, "The bereaved family members are likely feeling that others are crying along with them in their hearts," and encouraged, "Even without saying a single word, there will naturally come a moment when sincerity is conveyed."

Recently, guest Shin Gi-ru, who experienced the loss of his mother, also shared his own experience. Shin said, "During the funeral, the funeral director told me, 'You might feel like you can't handle it right now, but things will get better after some time.' He added, "Saying 'It will be okay later' was more comforting than simply saying 'Cheer up.'"

Shin Gi-ru's eyes filled with tears as he recalled his last memories with his mother. He shared, "I didn't know Mom would leave so soon. I thought we had plenty of time." He also opened up about his worries: "When will things get better? Will they ever get better?"

In response, a funeral director in the audience comforted him, saying, "Rather than thinking your mother is no longer by your side, think of her as being within your heart. Live diligently with that mindset."

On this day's broadcast, an audience member who had previously drawn attention for sharing the story of 'The Worst Boyfriend' in episode 2 of 'Malja Show' returned, capturing viewers' interest once again. He revealed a new concern: "I've been in Seoul for a year now, and I feel lonely. I want to meet a boyfriend." Kim Young-hee immediately arranged a 'Malja Dating' session on the spot, introducing him to single men, adding warmth to the show.
