Ji Yeon-soo struggles with 'hundreds of millions in debt' after divorce

Broadcaster Jiyeonsu confessed that she had suffered hardships after divorcing her ex-husband Eli.

On the 18th, a video titled "Ji Yeon-soo 'I Wanted to Live to Death' Sam Hammington

In the released video, Jiyeonsu recalled the time when she had to pay off hundreds of millions of dollars in debt, saying, "I wasn't tired even though I couldn't eat because I felt like I had to protect my child. I continued to live like that for about six months."

He continued, "I paid off all my debt while working at two companies and doing broadcasting activities. I went to work during the week and appeared on TV on the weekends. When I went to work, I had no choice but to take my son with me. I didn't spend even 10,000 won and stubbornly saved up to pay off the debt. “I solved it. I wasn’t tired even if I didn’t sleep or eat,” he said.

The problem is that a health red flag has been turned on. Jiyeonsu said, "I couldn't sleep because my back hurt for a while, and at first, phlegm came up and a blood clot came out. I was so surprised that I wondered if I had seen it wrong. When I asked my nurse friend, the answer was, 'Get a cancer test.' But at that time, only the child's insurance was provided. “I didn’t have insurance, so I still haven’t been able to get tested,” he said.

He said, "At that time, Minsu cried a lot. He told me to get some rest. At that time, Minsu was at an age where he couldn't do his own business and clean himself, so he couldn't wake me up after doing his work, so he sat on the toilet alone for 30 minutes. 'Even if he had to scream,' he said. “I said, ‘I’m going to wake up mom,’ and he said, ‘Go to sleep, mom,’” he said, his eyes welling up.

Ji Yeon-soo reveals her love for her son Min-su. He said, "After paying off my debt, I thought I only wanted to be with Minsu. At that time, I was too busy making money to give him study material or do anything. After that, I went on trips and did study books together. Now, I have taken off all Korean and read books. “I also read,” he said.

Regarding the negative comments that poured in after the divorce, "I had no one around me to talk to, so I often stayed alone and blamed myself a lot, asking, 'Am I doing something wrong?' I was so scared that I couldn't talk to anyone. I was in a situation where I was pushed to the edge of a cliff and had to fall. “But at that time, I really wanted to live my life as if I was going to die. I didn’t know why I had anything to say. I really cut myself off a lot.”

Lastly, regarding the opposite sex, "Not at all. Currently, I have no intention of remarrying at all. I don't like it because my child might notice if I lose my financial ability even if I exclude myself and only look after the child. I don't like it." “Even though it’s hard, I think it’s right to work at a company and earn money to provide for my child,” he said firmly.
