Actor Han Go-eun recalled a difficult childhood.

On the 11th, the YouTube channel ‘PDC by PDC’ released a video titled ‘Han Go-eun couple, how about crying as a pair?’

Appearing as a guest, Han Go-eun spoke with PDC at a wine bar. In the midst of it, she was delighted when her husband Shin Young-soo made a surprise appearance.

That day, Han Go-eun looked back on her teens and twenties. She recalled, “I was busy just making ends meet. Childhood was really a materially difficult time. There was also a lot of absence from my parents.”

Han Go-eun said, “When my mom went to work in the morning, she would boil potatoes and leave them, and I would eat only those while waiting until she came home. I have many memories of waiting for her until it got dark,” and added, “And when I emigrated to the United States at 13, not much changed, but I could work. So I did a lot of part-time jobs.”

At this, PDC and Shin Young-soo, surprised, asked again, “You worked at 13?” Han Go-eun added, “Why is 13 young? In Korean age, that was 14. Back then, I worked in the school cafeteria and at the campus store and such. I wasn’t fluent in the language, and in California you have to drive, but since I couldn’t, there weren’t many jobs I could do.”

Han Go-eun continued, “I lived like that, always working, and one day my mom told me this. She was always busy with work, and one day she came home, opened the refrigerator, and it was full. Then she thought, ‘Our Go-eun must have gotten paid today.’ We had no food. I earned money to eat and live. I often wondered when I would be able to get out of this.”
