Comedian Hong Hyun-hee shed tears as she recalled the final moments of her late father.
On the 30th, a video titled "Dad, Jun-beom has grown so much, hasn't he?" was released on the YouTube channel "Hong Hyun-hee and Jay Soon's Hong Soon TV."
In the released video, Hong Hyun-hee visited Goeosan National Cemetery, where her late father is buried, accompanied by her husband Jay Soon and their son, Jun-beom.
Jay Soon expressed his longing for his father-in-law, saying, "Jun-beom doesn't know his grandfather's face. It feels good that all three of us are going together like this."
On the day, Hong Hyun-hee recalled the time of her father's funeral, stating, "When we were preparing for the funeral, I looked through Dad's wallet to find photos, and I found that he had already taken three ID photos and put them in. He had placed them precisely at the back of the wallet so that we could find them."
She continued, "Thinking about it now, I wonder what kind of feelings Dad must have had when he went to take those photos," adding, "For about five years after his passing, just looking at the photos would make me cry, and I would say 'I'm sorry' a hundred times each time."
Jay Soon expressed regret, saying, "He passed away too early. He passed away the year after we got married." Hong Hyun-hee replied, "It was when I was busiest with my activities. Many celebrities came to pay their respects, and I think he would have been happy about that."
In particular, Hong Hyun-hee recalled her father's final moments. Jay Soon recounted, "We took my father-in-law to the hospital, but the doctor said it seemed like a serious situation. It felt overwhelming," adding, "I only told my father-in-law that we should go to a larger hospital for an examination."
Hong Hyun-hee revealed, "We went straight to Asan Medical Center, but they said there was nothing more they could do. At that moment, I knelt before the doctor and begged him to please help."
She continued, "Looking back, we took him to the hospital too late. Before that, when I told Dad we should go to the hospital and he refused, I would just say 'Okay,' but I regret that so much now."
She added, "Dad lived a very difficult life all his life. Since my marriage went well and my career was doing well, it seems like he finally felt at ease," revealing her heavy-hearted feelings.
Hong Hyun-hee also recalled the last conversation she had with her father. She shared, "I never had a conversation lasting more than an hour with Dad while he was alive. But right before his passing, I spoke to him non-stop, like a rapper, telling him how truly grateful and sorry I was."
She continued, "I asked him to be reborn as my son in the next life," confessing, "But now that Jun-beom is born, there are things I try to do without any regrets."
In response, Jay Soon empathized, saying, "That's why I can't scold Jun-beom properly. Once you become a parent, you start to understand what it feels like to be one."
Meanwhile, Hong Hyun-hee married interior designer Jay Soon in 2018 and has a son named Jun-beom.
