Actress Choi Ji Woo, known as an icon of late motherhood, recently discussed her experiences and newfound joy of parenthood.

She gave birth at the age of 46, which has profoundly changed her perspective on life and motherhood.

In a video on the YouTube channel ‘Salty Brother Shin Dong-yup,’ Choi talked about the simple pleasures she now enjoys after becoming a mother. For example, she can proudly drink alcohol after her day ends, now that her child is 48 months old.

Shin Dong-yup expressed astonishment at Choi’s late motherhood, comparing her to male actor Kim Yong-gun, who also became a father later in life. Choi proudly claimed, “I call myself an icon of late childbirth. I want to encourage others that even at this age, having a healthy child is possible.”

Addressing younger parents, Choi expressed gratitude for being included and shared how she had to work harder due to her age.

She turned to books for information, feeling uncomfortable with being labeled as naive in the past.

Choi reflected on the challenges of conceiving, acknowledging that it didn’t happen as quickly as she expected.

Seeing contemporaries on screen who were active during the same period provided comfort and encouragement.

Post-childbirth and marriage, Choi realized the importance of being a role model as a parent and accumulating virtue.

She feels like she has become a more complete person through motherhood, shifting from individualism to nurturing responsibility for her family.

Actress Kang Ye Won got emotional as she opened up about why she took a break from broadcasting and why she’s finally giving love a chance.

On the March 3 episode of tvN STORY’s Can I Love Now?, Kang Ye Won made her debut as a new participant looking for romance.

During the broadcast, she revealed that negative online comments had deeply affected her. "I used to cry all the time reading comments. I get hurt easily. What might be a small wound for others feels like a huge blow to me," she shared, expressing the stress she faced from malicious remarks.

She also admitted that at one point, she wanted to leave everything behind. "I kept thinking, ‘How long do I have to keep working this hard?’ and it became overwhelming."

She added, "At one point, I thought, ‘I should just quit everything and move to the countryside,’ and that idea actually gave me peace," she confessed.

When it came to dating, Kang Ye Won shared that she had always been content watching others fall in love.

"It never worked out for me. I wasn’t the type to ask for introductions either. I just found comfort in living as an observer. Maybe it’s my fate. I’m fearful, and I lack courage. If I feel like someone might hurt me, I block them out from the start," she admitted.

However, the actress revealed that she ultimately joined Can I Love Now? for her father. "My dad was born in 1943. He had me late in life, and his health isn’t great."

She added, "I realized that if I continue living alone like this, I won’t be able to give my parents any hope until the moment they pass away," she said with tears in her eyes. "My perspective on life has changed. I no longer think just about myself, but about my parents."

Kang Ye Won’s heartfelt confession touched many viewers, leaving fans rooting for her to find happiness.
