Jaejoong's mother's confession made him cry... ”I raised my nine siblings alone and paid off all my debts”

The tear-jerking story of singer Kim Jaejoong's family has been revealed.

On the 19th broadcast of KBS 2TV's New Product Launch - Convenience Store Restaurant, Jaejoong will be showcasing a special menu filled with family memories with his mother. During the shoot, Jaejoong's parents brought tears to everyone's eyes as they revealed for the first time stories from their past that they had never even told Jaejoong before.

His mother underwent pelvic and knee surgery several years ago, and recently her ankle has also deteriorated, causing worry for her son, Jaejoong. When Jaejoong's father got married, he said, "I wouldn't let my hand get a single drop of water on it, but I told my wife I'm a sinner." His mother then revealed a shocking past, saying, "I've never told this story before."

Jaejoong's father came from a wealthy family and lived a wealthy life at one point, but revealed that a business failure left him in debt overnight, amounting to 100 million won. The shock was so great that he no longer recognized the people around him, and he subsequently suffered from mental illness and went through a difficult time.

In the end, his mother had to provide for her nine siblings on her own. "Even if I wanted to die, I couldn't. How could I die when my children were saying, 'Mom, I'm hungry?'" she said in tears. Her mother raised her nine siblings by working whatever job she could, including street vendors and in restaurants, and single-handedly paid off all of her 100 million won debt.

Jaejoong was shocked and shed tears as he heard his parents' stories for the first time. The turbulent history of Jaejoong's family and the deep love that blossomed among them can be seen on KBS 2TV's New Product Launch - Convenience Store Restaurant, which will air at 8:30 pm on the 19th.
