Actress Kim Hyun-sook opened up about the bittersweet feelings she experienced after hearing a single remark from her son, whom she has been raising alone since her divorce.

On the 29th, a video titled "A day to have my heart out with my best friend as a single mom (a venting session)" was posted on the YouTube channel 'Hyunsaeng Mode Queen Ji-hyun.'

On that day, Kim Hyun-sook spoke about the hardships of parenting as a single mother alongside Lee Ji-hyun, a former member of the group Jewelry.

Kim Hyun-sook said, "I wanted my son to make some close friends. But he hasn't been in Korea for long, so he doesn't have anyone," adding, "My son is surprisingly shy and has a personality that allows him to do well on his own."

She continued, "I tend to worry for no reason. Being a single mom has given me an inferiority complex," revealing, "Recently, my son said he wanted to live with his dad like the other kids."

Kim Hyun-sook reflected, "It starts with the thought, 'Am I causing this much harm to my child because of one wrong choice I made?' and then it leads to self-deprecation."

Nevertheless, she confessed that she was hurt by her son's words, stating, "I am doing my best right now and living hard. When you look at that, am I a 100% failed mother? That's not the case, is it? But when I hear those words, it feels really heartbreaking."

However, Kim Hyun-sook revealed, "Because it wasn't something the child chose, I took a deep breath to calm myself down at that moment," adding, "The next day, I sent my son a long KakaoTalk message apologizing and telling him I love him."

She explained that she conveyed her apology for not being able to provide a family where both mother and father are present, while also letting him know that she is doing her best and loves him anytime, anywhere. In response, her son replied, "Mom, I understand what you mean. I get it."

Meanwhile, Kim Hyun-sook married a non-celebrity businessman in 2014 and welcomed a son, but divorced in 2020. She has been raising her son alone since then.
