Singer Lee Min-woo disclosed his past financial difficulties.
On the 18th, the KBS2 entertainment program 'Salim Nam Season 2' aired a segment showing Lee Min-woo's family traveling to Yeongju, Gyeongsangbuk-do.
On this day, Lee Min-woo set out on a trip with his fiancée and six-year-old daughter, bringing along his parents. They started their journey joyfully, singing in the car.
Lee Min-woo's father confessed, "My eldest brother was born in the year I got married. We also had a shotgun wedding," and his fiancée asked, "How did you meet?"
The conversation led to stories about his parents' wedding, with his father confusing the date, saying, "October 67, no, it was December." Meanwhile, Lee Min-woo's mother interjected, "How could that be?" and recounted, "I was pregnant and collapsed before the bride's entrance. I splashed water on my face and barely took a photo before coming in. We don't even have a family photo."
She then expressed her long-held grievances, saying, "Don't even talk about the past," and added, "It's already hard enough working at the hair salon, why did you make me guarantee a loan?"
Lee Min-woo reflected on the difficult family situation, saying, "The hair salon was 4 pyeong, and the room was 3 pyeong. My mother ran the salon, and my father had a business that faced difficulties. When I was in elementary school, we had red (seizure) stickers placed on our property about twice. My mom cried and begged for help. I felt I had to protect them," and added, "I took on the role of the head of the family as soon as I debuted at 19."
