Broadcaster Kim Sook revealed that when work dried up in the past she even considered moving down to Jeju.
The first episode of the tvN variety show 'Predictable,' which aired on the 13th, revealed the start of Kim Sook's Jeju house rehabilitation project.
That day, Kim Sook candidly explained the background of how she came to buy the house, saying, "It's been 14 years since I bought the house in Jeju." She recalled the situation at the time, saying, "In 2012 I had almost no work. I was getting cut from programs and being pushed around here and there."
She added, "At that time there was a craze for moving to the countryside and taking up farming," and said, "I went down to Jeju once and thought, 'This place seems nice.'" She said she bought the Jeju house while contemplating a second life during an unstable period in her entertainment activities.
But contrary to expectations, the situation changed afterward. Kim Sook said, "After I bought the house, for some reason I became busier," and said, "I was supposed to go down and prepare and do something, but I couldn't handle it."
She honestly admitted, "I kept thinking, 'I have to go down,' and in the end the house became neglected."
Kim Sook also conveyed a special meaning the house holds for her. She said, "I moved many times from Busan to Seoul before I had my own home," and added, "So the space called a home carries great meaning."
She went on to say, "A home gives peace to my heart," and explained the reason she started the Jeju house rehabilitation project: "I felt I couldn't postpone it any longer. If not now, there might be no opportunity."
Kim Sook also added, "I'm now mentally prepared," and said, "If I have good friends, I want to share that house with them."
Meanwhile, Predictable [Home], the tvN show documenting the rebirth process of the Jeju house that contains Kim Sook's long-held dream, airs every Friday evening.<
