For those who still don't know why Lot of peopLe just LOVE Kim Hyun Joong so much... Read this... and be inspired!
Kim Hyun Joong who acts as Yoon JiHoo in KBS 2TV ‘Boys Over Flowers’ has an unknown tear-breaking and filial piety story behind him. Kim HyunJoong’s mother Jung Yeon Mi said to IS in an interview on 19-Feb “Hyun Joong is very sentimental child even though he is blunt and doesn’t talk much.” She also talked about the story of crying when she received a gift of beauty products from his son recently.
Kim Hyun Joong’s mother said “He came home a few days ago and put the beauty products on the dining table. I asked him what is that and my son replied ‘Mum, I bought for you to use. Now can you please learn to enjoy life? Can you don’t do the work at the market anymore?’ and some other good-talking.”
She continued “I talked to my son’s uncle to whom he is very close with to discuss what I should do. Uncle said ‘HyunJoong came over to find me not long ago, he said he suddenly saw his mother’s face and that there were more wrinkles than before, he was so heart-broken. Then he went to the restroom to cry because he hates being seen crying.’ After which, he asked his uncle which beauty products are good to smoothen wrinkles as he wants to purchase it as a gift. Hearing that my son went to the restroom to cry, I felt really bad. Now, I am considering to stop my clothing business at DongDaeMoon market.”
Kim Hyun Joong’s parents folded up their poor business during IMF (financial crisis time) and started their clothing business at DongDaeMoon which both of them have to work until very late together. Kim Hyun Joong who was a high school student at that time, dropped out from school to work part-time to earn himself a living while preparing to debut as a singer.
Jung Yeon Mi said “Because we wanted to raised our son as a strong kid with responsibility, we pretended not to know when he came back from his part-time work at wee hours in the morning. My husband and I would go to the restaurant that our son was working at and waited outside for an hour every night to look at him and we cried. Even though the lights were on while we wait for our son to return, the truth is that we would turn off the lights and pretended that we were sleeping just before he reaches the front door.”
Kim Hyun Joong has been thrifty while being active as a singer to save money for his brother’s overseas studies fee. Recently, his filial piety can also be seen when he gave a new car to replace his father’s 10 years old car.
Jung Yeon Mi said “I always say to my son to pray to God before they start to do anything. We opposed to our smart son, who managed to get grade 3 in Chinese Character Competence Test during elementary school, to get into the entertainment industry, but we believed in him when we saw his persistence in doing what he wanted to do. I AM PROUD OF MY SON.”
