Singer Hye Eun-i recalled her past of having to live in a single room due to her father's debt guarantee.
Hye Eun-i appeared on the MBN variety show "Sokpuri Show Dongchimi" (Unwind Show Dongchimi), which aired on the 14th.
On that day, Hye Eun-i said, "When I was young, my grandparents were incredibly wealthy," adding, "In the 1950s, we lived in a tiled house with 12 rooms. It was probably around 1,000 pyeong."

She revealed, "At that time, my father was the director of an opera troupe, and our family moved from Mokpo to Daejeon. When I was in high school, my father guaranteed a debt for a junior colleague, which left our family on the street."
She continued, "My older brothers had their own families and were not in a position to support our parents, so I had to take on the role of head of the household. After paying off all the debts, we had 300,000 won left."
She then recalled her economically difficult times, stating, "With that money, I found a single room for 300,000 won in Seoul, and my parents, me, and my youngest sibling, who was an elementary school student, lived there."
