Korean Actress Son Tae-young Shares Challenges of Her Son's College Admissions in the U.S.
On October 23, Son Tae-young shared a video titled 'Son Tae-young's Struggles with Her Son's U.S. College Admissions (Why It's Harder Than Korea)' on her YouTube channel 'Mrs. New Jersey Son Tae-young.'
In the video, the mother of two expressed her desire for her children to grow up quickly, saying, "I want them to grow up fast and leave the nest. Just go quickly," while revealing that her son, Luke, has one year left until graduation.
Regarding her son Luke, who is also active as a soccer player, Son Tae-young mentioned, "I recently bought him a new smartphone, but since there was no model available, I got one without a zoom camera. He said as long as it works for calls, it's fine," highlighting his easygoing personality.
When a friend asked about her children's riding schedule, Son Tae-young replied, "Luke said he'd take an Uber, and Riho only has an afternoon Zoom class," smiling happily. She added, "My driving skills are improving in the U.S. It costs about $26 for a taxi ride home, which is about 40,000 won per trip, and it's a burden."
As Halloween approaches, Son Tae-young was seen buying chocolates, candies, and jellies for the neighborhood kids, saying, "I learned that houses decorated for Halloween should give out candy," showing her adaptation to American culture.
Meanwhile, Son Tae-young moved to New Jersey in 2020 for her children's education and has been living there for five years. Her husband, Kwon Sang-woo, commutes between Korea and the U.S., living as a 'goose father.'
