Behind the glamorous facade of a TV personality lies a family history buried 31 years ago.
Singer and TV personality Lee Ji-hye recently opened up about her troubled teenage years and painful family history on her YouTube channel 'Unhateful Attention Seeker Sister.' In the video, foot reading expert Kim Baek-moon, with 35 years of experience, examined the traces of Lee Ji-hye's life etched on her feet.
The expert observed Lee Ji-hye's feet and noted, "She endured a lot of hardships in her early years. The numerous horizontal lines indicate significant life struggles." Lee Ji-hye paused before admitting, "It was really tough. Life itself was painful."
Tension filled the room when the expert identified the age of 16 (1995) as a major turning point in Lee Ji-hye's life. She confessed, "I dropped out of school and ran away to study abroad. It was a period of intense turmoil."
She candidly revealed the decisive reason for her turmoil, saying, "At that time, my father was having an affair. The accumulation of such difficult situations led to an overwhelming adolescence."
Lee Ji-hye reflected on her tumultuous past, stating, "Even after that, things didn't go well, and it was the worst situation." However, there was a turning point. The expert mentioned that her fate changed dramatically at the age of 38, to which Lee Ji-hye responded, "That coincides exactly with when I met my husband, Moon Jae-wan. He was the benefactor of my life," expressing deep affection for her husband.
Lee Ji-hye debuted in 1998 with the group S#arp and married tax accountant Moon Jae-wan in 2017. They have two daughters. Currently, she is enjoying a second peak in her career, balancing her unique character between YouTube and variety shows.
