After the embezzlement controversy involving about 4.3 billion won, actress Hwang Jung-eum, who resumed activities through YouTube, opened up about her honest feelings and her new daily life.
Recently, a video titled "Long time no see | Sharing what happened over the past year" was released on Hwang Jung-eum's YouTube channel.
On the day, Hwang Jung-eum said about starting YouTube, "I was grateful that people came back to me," and showed her characteristic bright wit, saying, "Since I'm doing this anyway, I thought I should become South Korea's top YouTuber."
However, behind the laughter were honest feelings about the past time. She said, "After going through many things, I realized there are so many people who are suffering," and added, "I want to communicate like a friend with single-parent families, mothers raising children, and lonely people."
Especially calling herself the icon of failure as a self-deprecating joke, Hwang Jung-eum calmly revealed her current feelings. Hwang Jung-eum said, "I was so mentally exhausted that I didn't even know what situation I was in," and "Whereas before I tried to solve everything, now I am grateful for moments when I don't have to do anything."
She also frankly shared the feelings she had expected after the divorce. She said, "I thought, 'Now it's a new start,' but I felt, 'Again? Still?'" and added, "I think all the good energy I used to have drained away while trying to solve everything," wiping her eyes.
At the same time, her recently revealed new home also attracted attention. While introducing the house she moved into, Hwang Jung-eum mentioned the old furniture remaining throughout the living room and dining table. Pointing to red and green chairs, she explained, "Furniture we bought when we were newlyweds," and when asked, "Why don't you throw them away?" she laughed, "They're so comfortable I can't throw them away."
She also said she brought the furniture she used during her newlywed days as is, and dryly said, "They left the door open saying to take their stuff. I'm thankful," which drew laughter. Netizens praised Hwang Jung-eum, who handled heavy topics with her unique humor, saying, "Even after hard times, it's remarkable to see her looking bright," "She talks about it smiling but it's actually heartbreaking," and "I hope only good things happen to her again."
