Singer Eun Ga-eun has returned to broadcasting just six weeks after giving birth, opening up about the challenges of motherhood.
On the 6th, Eun Ga-eun resumed her role as DJ on KBS Happy FM's 'Eun Ga-eun's Shining Trot'. After a brief maternity leave, she made her comeback six weeks postpartum.
Eun Ga-eun, who married Park Hyun-ho last year, welcomed a daughter in February this year. Reflecting on the birth, she shared, "When the baby was in my womb, the doctor said the amniotic fluid was clean, and the baby was born very clean." She added, "She was born looking as if she had been washed for days, without any swelling, just beautiful."
Eun Ga-eun had hoped for a natural birth but faced unexpected challenges. She revealed, "I dreamed of a natural delivery but after enduring 6-7 hours of labor, I had to undergo an emergency C-section." She explained, "When they opened me up, the baby wasn't even trying to come down, just playing around. It was all a blur due to the emergency."
She mentioned that her daughter resembles her father, Park Hyun-ho, more. Eun Ga-eun said, "Many people say she looks just like her dad. Nurses and staff at the care center also said she resembles him. I think so too, though her lips and forehead resemble mine."
Despite taking maternity leave, Eun Ga-eun felt she didn't really rest due to childcare. She shared, "The baby demands food every two hours. After burping her and cleaning the bottles, she's hungry again," she said with a laugh.
