≪Choi Ji-ye’s Epilogue≫
Reporter Choi Ji-ye of Ten Asia objectively and keenly points out events that have occurred throughout the entertainment industry. We carefully analyze the ‘glitch’ you missed from a reporter’s perspective.
Ock Joo-hyun, a musical actress from the girl group Fin.K.L., shocked people by revealing that she had contemplated making an extreme choice. Ok Joo-hyun, Lisa, and Lee Ji-hye from the musical 'Rebecca' appeared on Channel A's 'Oh Eun-young's Golden Counseling Center', which aired on the 26th.

On this day, Ock Joo-hyun revealed that she had been diagnosed with panic disorder and was taking medication due to the pressure and burden of performing on the musical stage, and then brought up a past in which she considered making an extreme choice, saying that she thought, 'I'm just going to die.' Ok Joo-hyun said, "When I first debuted as a musical, I couldn't separate my business failure and debt from the time I was doing the musical. It was so painful that I went through a time where I thought, 'Should I just die?'" He also added that the hardships, prejudice, and malicious comments he faced while performing on the musical stage under the label of being from a girl group were very difficult.

Ock Joo-hyun's confession like this surprised the public, and at the same time, it aroused sadness. Because the 'Golden Counseling Center' is a place where people can reveal their worries and difficulties deep in their hearts, they may have revealed their true feelings without hesitation. Furthermore, we can sympathize with the fact that we are all weak human beings, so extreme thoughts occur only briefly. Although Ock Joo-hyun was seen by the public as having a confident and easy-going personality, she wasn't actually like that on the inside. This confirmed once again how important and necessary mental management is for celebrities who meet the public through stages or broadcasts.

Suddenly, it occurred to me that Lee Hyo-ri, a colleague close to Ock Joo-hyun's mental difficulties, could play a good role. Lee Hyo-ri probably has no difficulties living as a celebrity, but she has been practicing early on how to let go a little and move on. He, who reigned as a top star in name and reality, changed little by little as he went through various events and a series of times. A notable change occurred in 2012. In 2012, Hyori Lee declared a halt to commercial advertising and showed a different path by taking the lead in protecting abandoned dogs and animals and protecting the environment.

It appears that Hyori Lee has opened another chapter by starting commercial advertisements with her recent move to Antenna, but Hyori Lee, who has been trained through a long period of letting go and emptying herself, appears to be relatively good at mental management. Previously, he appeared on JTBC's entertainment program 'Let's Eat Dinner Together' and told a young child who wanted to become a great person, "What's the point of becoming a great person? Just be anyone?" is still talked about by many people. In addition, he also conveyed comfort by saying things like, ‘If you let go of the idea of being happy, you will be happy’ and ‘I tried to change myself into a good person, and a good person came along.’

Ock Joo-hyun and Lee Hyo-ri have remained close and support each other for a long time, starting with their Fin.K.L relationship. Last September, Lee Hyori visited Ock Joo-hyun and cheered her on while she was performing to commemorate the 10th anniversary of 'Rebecca'. In the waiting room, Lee Hyo-ri hugged Ock Joo-hyun tightly and did not hide her affection. Lee Hyori sincerely congratulated Ock Joo-hyun, who entered the entertainment industry through Fin.K.L. and rose to the top as a musical actress.

It would be difficult to say that I dare to understand the pressure and burden that Ock Joo-hyun feels as a leading actor on stage. However, if it is something that makes you mentally ill and reminds you of death, I would like to tell you that it is okay to put it aside for a while and take a break. Isn't there Lee Hyo-ri and many other people who love Ock Joo-hyun, who hugs her with all her might?
