The words that lingered in the heart were longer than those that came out of the mouth. Even in words of consideration, there were mistakes, and she remembered them.
87-year-old actress Kim Young-ok recalled a comment she made to her daughter-in-law and apologized during the MBN show 'Sokpuri Show Dongchimi' aired on the 5th.
The episode was themed 'Having a Great Husband Turns Out to Be Useless,' and subtle miscommunications and emotions among family members were exchanged. Kim Young-ok cautiously shared her experience.
"It was just a comment," she began, "I said, 'The grandchild has acne, and while I never had skin troubles, it seems to be severe for them.'" She continued, "My daughter-in-law is a doctor. She didn't say anything, but I wondered how upset she must have felt inside."
At the time, it was a passing comment, but it was a scene that could not be erased from her heart over time. Kim Young-ok said, "I thought I was being considerate, but it was a mistake. I'll take this opportunity to say I'm sorry. It was just a comment," and directly apologized to her daughter-in-law through the TV.
The words came before the expressions, and the memories ran deeper than the apologies. In the sentence, "I couldn't bring myself to say it," the buried emotions among family members were evident.
Meanwhile, Kim Young-ok continues her steady activities across dramas, films, and variety shows, gaining much empathy through her talks on MBN's 'Sokpuri Show Dongchimi,' where she shares daily life and intergenerational emotions.
