Former racing model Ji Yeon-soo, who is raising her son alone after a divorce, revealed her monthly living expenses.

On the 21st, a video titled "Subscriber Story [Visitation Rights] Concerns and Counseling" was uploaded to Ji Yeon-soo's YouTube channel 'Yeon-su Robda'.

Ji Yeon-soo introduced a story about a single mother in her 30s raising an elementary school-aged son alone, who is struggling due to education costs. The person sharing the story stated that their fixed monthly expenses amount to 2 million won.

Upon hearing this story, Ji Yeon-soo responded to the question, "Does it cost this much?" by saying, "It costs even more. As the child's grade level increases, expenses rise further. Children want to do more things."

She continued, "This is not someone else's story; it is my own," adding, "Min-su (my son) also has many things he wants to do, but there are many things we couldn't afford due to money. So I felt sorry."

Ji Yeon-soo explained, "Actually, Min-su wanted to study piano and art. But I didn't allow him to pursue arts or physical education subjects. However, from a mother's perspective, these are lower priorities, so I told him, 'I'll teach you at home.' Also, every time he earns a new belt in taekwondo, he receives special tutoring."

Furthermore, Ji Yeon-soo revealed, "When you add up academy fees and money spent on special weekend activities, the total monthly expense exceeds 300,000 won."

Ji Yeon-soo said, "It has been a long time since I bought anything for myself. It's not because I lack desire; it's because I can't bear to spend money on myself." She added, "Even with food, why wouldn't I want to eat what I like? Naturally, I don't get to do the things I want. Since everything ties back to money, saving becomes essential and spending on my child feels completely natural."

She stated, "Just breathing costs over 2 million won. In summer, you need air conditioning; in winter, gas bills add up, along with many other incidental expenses. So if a month's total reaches 2 million won, that's the average. Raising one child requires a lot of money."

Meanwhile, Ji Yeon-soo married Eli from U-KISS in 2014 and had a son named Min-su, but they divorced in 2020, after which she has been raising her son alone. Eli remarried last June.
