In ‘Solo-ra-seo,’ actress Hwang Jung-eum was shocked by an unexpected comment from her son Wang-sik during their conversation, which resonated with viewers.
In the episode aired on the 29th of SBS Plus's ‘Solo-ra-seo,’ Hwang Jung-eum's daily parenting life with her two sons, Wang-sik and Kang-sik, was depicted.
On this day, Wang-sik showed that he could endure his younger brother's teasing and violence without getting angry, capturing attention. Hwang Jung-eum praised Wang-sik's patience, saying, “Since I usually teach him not to hit, he doesn't hit back at all even when he is hit.” However, the ensuing conversation took an unexpected turn. Wang-sik revealed his true feelings, saying, “I don't like it when Kang-sik hits me,” and ultimately dropped a bombshell by asking, “Why did you have me, mom?”
Hwang Jung-eum was taken aback by this remark, but sincerely responded, “I gave birth to you because you were just so cute… you’re my son.” However, Wang-sik left a profound statement, saying, “Right now my name is a question mark,” leaving viewers solemn.
In a subsequent interview, Hwang Jung-eum expressed shock and sadness, saying, “Listening to Wang-sik, I felt that something was building up in his heart.” She added, “He’s like a green frog, so I don't know what he’s thinking,” revealing her concerns and responsibilities as a mother to pay more attention to the emotions her child cannot express.
Viewers who saw this scene also reacted, saying, “It’s a feeling that even adults struggle to deal with, I can’t believe those words came from a child,” “Hwang Jung-eum genuinely seemed surprised,” and “We shouldn’t ignore children’s emotional expressions nowadays,” leading to a flood of relatable parenting comments.
