Hwang Jae-geun "From depression to 'extreme thinking'"

Designer Hwang Jae-geun revealed that he suffered from severe depression and even had extreme thoughts.

Hwang Jae-geun appeared as a guest on the recently released YouTube channel 'Puhaha TV's 'Midnight Shindang' and talked with shaman Jeong Ho-geun.

In the video, Hwang Jae-geun said, "I am unique among my siblings. My mother was also a designer. She gave me a lot of support while asking me why I was doing such a difficult job. She passed away while I was studying abroad. She died while waiting for me."

He continued, "Sometimes he appears in my dreams. There has been a jinx since he passed away, and he appears in very difficult moments. Then, the problem is solved. He appears in a younger form that I did not remember."

Hwang Jae-geun said, "I always go to the hospital because I have a lot of pain despite my appearance. I'm feeling better now, but a few years ago, my depression was so severe that I even thought about following my mother (who passed away)."

He said, "It was my mom who stopped me from doing that. It also appeared in my dreams, and I went to my mom's room and she came and sat down. 'Did mom send you?' “Even though I tried, it didn’t fly away,” he said, adding, “I thought it was right to live hard. Going to the grave of a saint gives me a lot of comfort.”

After hearing this, Jeong Ho-geun praised Hwang Jae-geun, saying, "If you spend the next two years wisely, you will become a very big fashion designer," and "a designer with great work ability."
