Broadcaster Park Kyung-rim reflected on her childhood, which was not financially stable.

On the 30th, a video titled "Behind the bright face, the real story that Park Kyung-rim had hidden" was uploaded on the 'Fairy Jaehyung' channel.

On this day, Park Kyung-rim was a guest on 'Fairy Table' and shared her experiences from when she went to study abroad in the United States. When asked why she studied in the U.S., she said, "I was preparing because I had to study abroad after graduating college. I read a book titled '7 Acts and 7 Chapters' in middle school. It was written by Hong Jung-wook, and it left a deep impression on me. It was about working hard to achieve your dreams. I was filled with dreams. Almost 100% of my mind was dreams. I only thought about how to achieve my dream of being a (host). It was when I was in the first year of middle school that I read it and decided I wanted to go to the U.S."

She continued, "I was a bit extreme. I felt a strong need to do this. Our financial situation was not good, but I thought I had to go to the U.S. to achieve my dream, so I first went to the U.S. embassy. I thought I could just walk in, but I had to take a number to get in. The embassy was not easy to access. While I was standing outside, someone came out, and I asked if they were from the embassy and told them I wanted to be sent to the U.S. Because I knew that if I told my parents, they couldn’t send me. I felt sorry about that, so I asked to be sent, and they asked if I had family in the U.S. I said my family was in Gupabal, and then they asked if I had relatives in the U.S. I told them they all lived in Gupabal."

Park Kyung-rim said, "Then, they kindly advised me to go back and speak to my parents about hosting and such. They saw I looked hopeless and even bought me milk. The embassy staff did. I trudged home, feeling that I had to go to the U.S., so I wrote a letter to my dad. I wrote that if he sends me, I would make sure to buy him a plane ticket in the future and pamper him and mom once I succeed, and I placed it in my dad's shoes. To be stepped on. On the third day after I wrote the letter, my dad came home from school and found a letter on his desk. When he saw it, his heart must have broken the moment he opened it. My dad had cried while writing it, and it was all wrinkled. The stationery."

Hearing this, Jung Jae-hyung shed tears. Park Kyung-rim said, "The content was this: I'm really sorry. Your dad is cheering for your dream, but our situation cannot allow it for you to go right now, so I promise to owe you some dollars when you go to college and send you. This was the content, and what upset me at that time was that I actually knew the outcome. Yet I wrote this out of my own greed, and while writing it, I felt guilty for making my dad feel this way. I felt very remorseful."

He said, "So I decided at that time. When I graduated from college, I would go by earning my own money. It was a promise to myself. That’s why I went. However, in the meantime, I got lucky and started broadcasting and even received a Daesang. That was a stroke of luck, and this was a plan I had made separately before I left. But back then, many people asked me if I was crazy. They said it would be over once I came back. Why go when I was doing so well? But I really wanted to do it. It was a promise to myself."

She added, "And after returning, the hardships may not be as they were before, and one could think that way, but I really think I went well. The thing I felt while I was in the U.S. was that if I had stayed there, I would have genuinely thought I was becoming someone. Because everyone I met told me I was great, I started to feel that way. But when you go to the U.S., no one knows me. Since I can't speak English, I was genuinely looked down upon. It's like starting over. There, I realized that I had thought I was an 'A' when I was just a dot."

She said, "I always think that there is an end, and while it's important to rise, it's also important to come down well. It must be well-balanced so that I won't get hurt while going up or down, and I won't hurt someone else. I have to be strong."
