Actress Song Ji-hyo Takes on a Day of Parenting: A Hilarious and Exhausting Experience

Actress Song Ji-hyo recently embarked on a one-day parenting adventure.

On the 12th, Song Ji-hyo's YouTube channel featured a video titled 'Asking Song Ji-hyo About Parenting.'

In the video, Song Ji-hyo took on the role of a one-day mom for the three children of a staff member she has worked with for 10 years. She cared for 8-year-old Hai, 3-year-old Eden, and the youngest, Eve, capturing her 'parenting diary' in the process.

Song Ji-hyo told the children, "Today, I'm your mom and dad," but the kids responded, "You're not a man," leading to a humorous exchange as Song Ji-hyo insisted, "I can be a man."

After waking the kids, washing them, and getting them ready for school, Song Ji-hyo was already exhausted, commenting, "It's like a war every morning. I can't do this parenting thing," and expressed her need for some alone time.

Meeting with the staff, Song Ji-hyo admitted, "I understand why moms are so busy in the morning. I can't do this twice. It's too hard," and added, "What happened to my appearance? It was too real. I was shocked when I saw myself in the mirror."

Regarding her 'parenting experience,' Song Ji-hyo confidently stated, "I may look like this, but I raised the second and third kids. I can handle changing diapers and bathing them," and she impressed the staff by skillfully changing and bathing the youngest, Eve.

At the kids' café, Song Ji-hyo appeared drained, saying, "I think I'll sleep well tonight. Moms are amazing. We should treat them well. We all grew up like this," and described the day as "a movie-like day from morning."

At the end of the video, the children expressed their sadness, saying, "Don't go, auntie," and Song Ji-hyo hugged them goodbye. She humorously told the camera, "Hurry up, hurry up," revealing her honest feelings.
