Former professional golfer Park Se-ri revealed the reasons behind her decision to retire and what led her to take on the role of mentoring younger players.

On the episode of the tvN STORY variety show "What Do You Do With What's Left?" broadcast on the 2nd, Park Se-ri opened up about the background that led her to begin a new life after retiring from her playing career.

On this day, Kim Chang-ok asked, "Most office workers retire in their 50s or 60s, but athletes retire at an incredibly young age, right? What were you thinking when you retired so young?"

In response, Park Se-ri replied, "I had intended to retire around the age of 40," and went on to talk about her dream of nurturing promising young talent.

Park Se-ri recalled, "When I first went overseas in 1998, it was my personal dream. I thought of it as a dream that belonged only to me and took on the challenge. But at the moment I realized that my dream had become someone else's dream, my perspective changed."

She continued, "I also had seniors before me, and juniors came up behind me. I wanted to be of some help to the younger players," adding, "I felt a desire to do something that could serve as a source of hope, allowing promising young athletes to dream."

She then added, "It was with that mindset that I started the foundation and company I am currently running," noting, "That is how I have been diligently working on other endeavors."

Meanwhile, Park Se-ri established the Park Se-ri Hope Foundation in 2016 to nurture promising young golfers. In 2019, she co-founded the sports-focused company Vaz International, launching initiatives such as hosting golf tournaments and engaging in various sports-related businesses.
