Son Dam-bi's Culinary Journey: From Seoul's Streets to Motherhood Insights
On the afternoon of the 29th, TV CHOSUN's 'Baekban Journey with Heo Young-man' featured the 'chameleon-like charm' of Son Dam-bi as she explored the flavors of Seoul. Returning to her 'Mom Dam-bi' persona, she experienced the essence of Seoul's dining scene, from the nostalgic alleys of her hometown in Gangdong-gu to a 89-year-old eatery in Euljiro.

Now in her fourth year of marriage, Son Dam-bi is navigating life as a 'new mom' to her '11-month-old daughter' Hae-i. Conceived through IVF, Hae-i boasts striking beauty, and upon seeing her photo, the host remarked, "The baby doesn't resemble her mom at all," expressing surprise. The once 'era-defining beauty' Son Dam-bi now sees her daughter as a spitting image of her husband, Lee Kyu-hyuk, earning the nickname 'Lee Kyu-hyuk Jr.'

Son Dam-bi humorously described herself as a 'shameless mom' post-childbirth, entertaining the host with her candid talk. She emphasized the importance of stamina for parenting, showcasing her 'iron mom' side honed through kettlebell workouts. The broadcast revealed the evolution of 'Dad's lookalike' Hae-i's face and 'Mom Dam-bi's' parenting diary.

The love story of Son Dam-bi and former speed skater Lee Kyu-hyuk was also shared. The couple briefly dated 13 years ago, parted ways, and reunited a decade later, marrying within five months. Son Dam-bi humorously noted, "I woke up and found myself married," while the host admired Lee Kyu-hyuk's 'bull-like legs,' adding a unique touch to the conversation.
