Actor Park Jung-min revealed the reason behind his decision to become the CEO of a publishing company.

On the October 11th episode of tvN's 'You Quiz on the Block,' Park Jung-min appeared as a guest to discuss his new role as a publishing company CEO.

During the show, Park shared, "During my school days, I once told my mom to leave things on the floor for later, but she got upset. It turned out my father had a visual impairment that limited his field of vision."

He continued, "I initially thought my father just had poor eyesight, but that was the first time I learned about his disability. I remember feeling frustrated, wondering, 'Why can't my dad drive?'"

Park Jung-min recalled, "My father had an accident due to his poor eyesight, and unfortunately, it resulted in him losing his vision. Seeing him upset was heartbreaking. Despite his visual impairment, he managed to live for 60 years..."

Park later admitted, "I felt like I was pitying my father for his blindness, and it made me feel ashamed and disgusted with myself."

He decided to start a publishing company for his father, who loves books. Park expressed, "I am the son of a disabled person. I had this terrible pity within me that made me feel ashamed and embarrassed. My father lived his whole life with discomfort, and I wanted to do something for him for the first time."
