Jenny from 'Yu Quiz' expressed her affection for her mother.
On the 7th, superstar Jenny, who had just returned from Coachella, grants on tvN 'Yu Quiz on the Block' (hereafter 'Yu Quiz').
That day, Jenny greeted, "I'm Jenny who just finished Coachella." When asked what she did after coming to Korea, Jenny replied, "I rested at home, ate delicious food, and repeated that twice. A few days ago, I ate 6 rolls of gimbap with different types of ramen. There are so many types of gimbap in Korea that I've eaten. It's the best. My favorite gimbap is tuna gimbap."
Meanwhile, Yoo Jae-suk mentioned that Jenny got choked up and shouted, "I love you, Mom" while singing "Starlight" on stage. Jenny admitted, "I really promised not to cry. It was the last song, but since Mom was watching, I just came out crying. I can't watch that video. I was crying too much. I was just wailing."
Jenny then explained the reason behind the lyrics "I just wanted to make my mom proud," saying, "My job is so glamorous and there is so much to show externally, but it's really hard. I was beating myself up alone and couldn't handle the pressure and thought, 'What should I do?' When I thought, 'What is my dream? What am I doing this for?' I reminded myself that I want to live happily with my mom and become a daughter she's proud of, so I don't have a reason to chase after anything."
Yoo Jae-suk remarked, "I heard your mother cried when you were offstage," to which Jenny responded, "I also confirmed that in the video. I looked too pitiful, I guess." However, she added, "I thought my mom would be excited, but she said, 'You worked hard, you worked hard,' and took pictures before leaving. She had another schedule."
Yoo Jae-suk also asked, "It seems like there is a lot of love for your mother, but what kind of person is she?" Jenny replied, "Mom told me not to talk about her. Even without me meaning to, I said 'I love you, Mom,' and many people probably saw it. It became so beautifully packaged. We are just a very ordinary mom and daughter, and you gave us so much attention that she said, 'Talk about Jenny today.'"
Meanwhile, Jenny revealed the reason she went to New Zealand for her studies at the age of 10. She said, "After becoming an adult, I talked about this a lot, and my mom just seemed to want me to grow up in a wide world."
Jenny even spent her time doing a homestay alone. Concerning this, she said, "When I was young, I had to learn the language. For the first two months, my mom was there. After spending two months together, she returned to Korea, and when she called me, I told her not to call because I needed to play. I think I realized that kind of early. I thought that if I were in Korea, I would have to study a lot."
Jenny, who found her life in New Zealand to be quite fitting, said, "At school, if they made me sit and study for an hour, they would let me play for two hours. I learned to cook, did art, and participated in nature experiential learning. I've liked running around and rolling on the grass since I was little. I wondered if there could be a place that suited me better than this. I couldn't speak English at first. I learned all of it in six months. It was survival."
