Actress Son Ye Jin revealed how her life has changed since marrying actor Hyun Bin and becoming a mother.

During a press conference at Hyundai Department Store Jungdong Branch in Bucheon, Son Ye Jin discussed being chosen as the main figure for the "Actor Special Exhibition" at the 28th Bucheon International Fantastic Film Festival (BIFAN).

Son Ye Jin who gave birth to her son in November 2022, shared, "The past two years have been filled with significant events that feel like the end of Chapter 1 in my acting career. Now, as I enter Chapter 2 and participate in this special exhibition at BIFAN, it's a chance for reflection and renewal. I'm deeply moved by this unique opportunity."

Reflecting on marriage and motherhood, Son Ye Jin expressed, "For those who have experienced it, marriage and childbirth open up a whole new world. Raising a child for almost two years has taught me to appreciate the simple moments in life. Previously, work consumed me completely, and I struggled to find balance."

She continued, "These days, seeing my child enjoy a meal of baby food brings immense joy. Knowing that we've navigated through the day successfully fills me with happiness. My values have shifted, and I find fulfillment in these everyday moments. Parenting is challenging, but it has also brought a new kind of happiness. I am living a very contented life."

The "Actor Special Exhibition" titled 'Unique Son Ye-jin' will celebrate her 23-year acting journey with events including a commemorative booklet, panel discussions, and a photo exhibition.

The 28th BIFAN is scheduled from the 4th to the 14th across various venues in Bucheon City.

ChoA, former member of the girl group Crayon Pop, has bravely shared her ongoing battle with cervical cancer and her emotional journey.

On January 28, ChoA posted a heartfelt update on her social media, explaining her struggles. "I usually laugh, talk, and live my life as usual, but there are moments when I suddenly face a reality that isn’t like before, and it gets tough," she shared.

She went on to say, "Recently, something difficult happened, and in the past, I would have had a drink with my husband to shake it off. I really miss being able to do that."

ChoA admitted that she still can’t fully believe her diagnosis. "When I face the reality I’ve been avoiding, my heart that I’ve built up breaks down," she said. "But the life I’m living now, which I’m still enjoying, is something that someone else might be wishing for. I try to gather my thoughts again with gratitude."

She also expressed hope for the future, saying, "Lately, I dream of a day five years from now when I’ll be declared cancer-free and be able to have a drink with my husband after putting the kids to bed, after all the struggles. It’s been almost two years, so I believe the day I get that clean bill of health will come soon."

ChoA married a businessman in 2021, six years older than her. In October 2023, she revealed her cervical cancer diagnosis, sharing that she had been diagnosed during a routine check-up in her first year of marriage.

Despite everything, ChoA remains hopeful, noting that the cancer was smaller than expected during surgery, and she was able to preserve her fertility—a step closer to her dream of becoming a mother.
