'Love Catcher' alumnus influencer Kim Ji-yeon expressed affection for her young son.

On the 20th, Kim Ji-yeon uploaded a selfie with her son to her social account. The photo showed Kim Ji-yeon and her son smiling warmly with their cheeks touching in front of a cake with one candle.

She said, "My little Se-po, who is about to celebrate his second birthday soon. That every step I took was a path to you. The day I met you, whom I had waited for so long, I vowed I would protect your world no matter what! No matter how hard the paths I walked to protect you were, I would embrace you in my arms the same way even if I had to go back hundreds of millions of times" and revealed her deep affection for her son.

She revealed the psychological anxiety she experienced during the divorce process, saying, "There were days when life was so overwhelming that I resented you for crying without stopping. And there were other days when, from when you were in my womb until you were born, it was so terrible that you always became my weakness and a means of blackmail that I foolishly wondered whether giving you up would be the right choice for you."

She continued, "At that time I was just barely alive and dying, but when I saw you smiling softly at me as I, with a swollen face, whispered a final goodbye, I realized what a terrible mother I had been, and I hugged you again. Despite doing my best, some things did not go as planned, but I hope you will one day understand that every choice was to protect you," she said.

She added, "Thank you for coming to this imperfect me and yet becoming a brighter child than anyone else, my baby. When this unworthy mother finally wiped away her tears, you had already grown up a little. I want to show you only the right world. It's okay to be slow or different from others; just grow up bright and straight as you are now," adding to the poignancy.

Meanwhile, Kim Ji-yeon gave birth to a son after a premarital pregnancy with baseball player Jung Chul-won in 2024, filed a marriage registration, and held a wedding last December. However, a month later she announced their divorce, and a lawsuit is currently underway.<
