On 'Ask Me Anything,' Seo Jang-hoon deeply empathized with the story-teller's dilemma while recalling his mother, who passed away after a long battle with illness.

In an episode of KBS Joy's variety program 'Ask Me Anything' aired on the 21st, a soon-to-be groom appeared, caring for his mother who has been suffering from cerebral palsy since collapsing due to a brain hemorrhage 11 years ago.

On that day, the story-teller stated, "I have lived with my mother as my top priority for 11 years, and now that I am about to get married, I want to transition well into being a good husband, so I came seeking advice."

Currently, the story-teller takes turns with his older sister caring for his mother every night. He acknowledges that he cannot continue caregiving in the same way after marriage but admitted, "Although I understand with my head that it is natural for my mother to gradually slip out of my hands, it is difficult to accept it emotionally."

Hearing this, Seo Jang-hoon shared his own experience and expressed empathy for the story-teller's feelings.

Seo Jang-hoon personally cared for his mother, who had been battling illness for a long time, before losing her in May 2024. It is known that his mother began her battle with illness in 2020.

Seo Jang-hoon said, "I also had a similar experience before," and revealed that entrusting caregiving to others or being unable to stay by their side frequently can make one feel as if they are committing a sin as a child.

At the same time, he advised the story-teller who is about to get married that his wife's perspective is also important.

Seo Jang-hoon stated that continuing caregiving in the same way after marriage could demand excessive sacrifice from his wife, adding, "It is your ability to properly balance between your mother and your wife."

He continued, "You have someone you need to take care of just as well as your mother," emphasizing that sufficient responsibility and consideration are needed for the new family being built after marriage.

Meanwhile, Seo Jang-hoon has previously shown his deep affection for his mother who was battling illness on several occasions in past broadcasts. In particular, he shed tears when asking Lim Young-woong, who appeared on SBS's 'My Little Old Boy,' to deliver a video letter wishing his mother, who was bedridden, a speedy recovery.
