On the 23rd, Yoon Hye-jin posted a video on her Instagram story with the caption, "Dad didn't know it was a shortened class day, so while waiting, she's doing a part-time job at Emart. It's so cute."
The video shows Yoon Hye-jin's daughter in her school uniform, working at a convenience store. Behind her, cigarettes are displayed, and she is diligently scanning barcodes of items like cup noodles and triangular kimbap, showcasing her enthusiasm.
Yoon Hye-jin's daughter was born in 2013, making her 12 to 13 years old. Legally, part-time work is allowed for those aged 15 and above, which means Yoon Hye-jin's daughter does not qualify. While employment is possible with a permit from the Ministry of Employment and Labor, such permits are rarely issued for those under 15. If her convenience store job were official, the employer could face penalties for illegal employment. However, Yoon Hye-jin's daughter, being a minor, would not be penalized.
This month, Yoon Hye-jin's daughter began attending Sunhwa Arts Middle School.
Meanwhile, Yoon Hye-jin married Uhm Tae-woong in 2013, and they have one daughter. Yoon Hye-jin has an impressive background as a principal dancer with the Korea National Ballet and the Monte Carlo Ballet in Monaco.
