“Queen Of Tears” actor Park Sung Hoon recently shared a heart-wrenching account of his family’s financial struggles.

In the latest episode of the tvN program ‘Hangout With Yoo’, Park Sung Hoon debunked rumors about his affluent background, revealing a starkly different reality.

His father lost his job during the IMF crisis, plunging his family into severe poverty during his high school years.

He shared a particularly poignant anecdote that brought his parents’ plight into sharp focus.

Park Sung Hoon recalled a moment during his military service when he was granted his first day off in eight months.

Excited, he called his mother, expecting a joyous reaction. Instead, she sounded troubled and asked him, “Sunghoon-ah, can you not take the day off?”

His mother explained that she and his father were barely surviving on just kimchi and water. If Park Sung Hoon came home, she wouldn’t be able to give him even a small amount of pocket money, which was unthinkable for her.

This phone call hit Park Sung Hoon hard, leaving him shocked at the extent of his parents’ financial struggles. “After the phone call, I think I cried a lot,” he confessed.

Fans were deeply moved by this revelation but also expressed pride in all his accomplishments to date, wishing him even greater success in the future.

Actor Lee Min Ho recently shared an unforgettable and embarrassing moment from his early career, revealing how he became a “falling star” at his first Baeksang Arts Awards.

On the December 25th episode of You Quiz on the Block (Episode 274), Lee Min Ho made a guest appearance and reflected on his rise to fame.

The actor, known for his iconic role as Goo Jun Pyo in Boys Over Flowers, won the Best New Actor award at the Baeksang Arts Awards, but it wasn’t just his victory that grabbed attention.

Lee Min Ho recalled, "I was attending the Baeksang for the first time, and I was so excited. Since I wasn’t going as Goo Jun Pyo, but as Lee Min Ho, I styled my hair in a perm and was ready to go." However, things took an unexpected turn when he tripped and fell on the red carpet.

He sighed, recalling, "That day, I fell. I fell and created so many memes. Even now, I look back and think, 'How did I walk that quickly on the red carpet?'"

Laughing at his own clumsiness, he admitted, "I was moving at the speed of light, no composure, no focus. Honestly, more than the joy of winning the award, that day was chaotic and so embarrassing for me."

Though his win was a highlight, Lee Min Ho humorously shared that the incident of tripping overshadowed the excitement of his achievement.

It’s safe to say that while the fall became a funny meme, it also became a lesson in humility for the actor, and a moment that fans still remember to this day.
