"The pain of losing a loved one, don't bear it alone. It’s not your fault." This is the comfort conveyed by Oh Eun-young.

The MBN entertainment program "Oh Eun-young Stay" (broadcast on the 14th) featured a family member who lost a father in last year's plane crash, revealing hidden feelings of sadness and self-blame.

On this day, Dr. Oh Eun-young had a one-on-one conversation with the participant using peanut snacks as a medium. Introducing the participant as "the daughter who lost her father in last year's plane crash," she carefully opened up, sharing, "I can't sleep properly. My heart is complicated and frustrating," revealing the reality of living while suppressing her sadness.

She said, "I wish I had asked to travel more often, or done more things that my dad liked... I feel guilty for not being able to stop it," cautiously expressing her longing and guilt toward her father.

In response, Dr. Oh Eun-young recalled her own experience of losing a father and conveyed heartfelt comfort. "Those who have lost a precious person share similar feelings. However, the sadness should not shake my life to its roots. Pain and wounds must be experienced while protecting my life," she continued, adding, "Someone might say, 'Are you able to eat?' But we have to live each day. Not eating or stopping our daily lives doesn’t lessen the sadness. In fact, that is the last thing the deceased would want."

In particular, Oh Eun-young stated, "Returning to daily life doesn't mean that love and longing disappear. Living with these feelings in our hearts is the process of mourning." The participant, with tears in her eyes, confessed, "Sadness, anger, and resentment kept turning into self-blame. But hearing 'It's okay to grieve,' and 'Don't blame yourself,' made me feel that I need to regain my balance instead of feeling powerless."

Finally, Oh Eun-young added, "The sadness of losing a loved one does not end. However, even amidst that sorrow, we must cherish ourselves and live on," leaving a deeply resonant message of empathy. That day's broadcast transcended one person's pain, providing a healing moment for all who experienced loss and mourning.
