A caller appeared on 'Ask the Wise,' expressing concern over whether to inform their biological mother, whom they had been estranged from since childhood, about the news that their father passed away six years ago.

On the episode of KBS Joy's variety program 'Ask the Wise' broadcast on the 26th, a caller appeared who had donated a liver to their father and subsequently lost him.

That day, the caller shared their dilemma, saying, "My father passed away in 2020, but I did not inform my biological mother, with whom I had cut off contact. I came here because I am wondering if I should tell her now."

The caller explained, "My parents separated before I turned five without legally divorcing. Although the marriage was maintained, my father lived in a de facto relationship with his new wife and took me with him."

They continued, "From then on, I grew up with my stepmother. She treated me so well, like her own child, that I never felt the urge to contact my biological mother. She still treats me very kindly," expressing affection for their stepmother.

However, the caller later reunited with their biological mother after their father was diagnosed with liver cancer. The caller recalled, "To perform a liver transplant on my father, we needed the surgical consent form from the legal guardian. So, I went to find my biological mother when I was 19. It was the first time we had met since I was five."

The caller revealed that although they donated a liver to their father, he passed away three years later due to lung cancer.

Seo Jang-hoon believed it was highly likely that the biological mother already knew about her ex-husband's death. He then advised the caller to inform her of the news by phone.

He added, "Your mother is your only legal family member, so you are not unaware of where she lives or what she does, right? I think it would be good to agree to share information when special events occur."
