K-pop singer Baek Ji-young is contemplating sending her daughter, Ha-im, to study in Japan.

On the 24th, Baek Ji-young's channel featured a video titled, "Why Baek Ji-young Insists on Japanese Study Abroad for Ha-im Despite Seok-won's Opposition." In the video, Baek Ji-young revealed, "There's a boarding school in Japan that Ha-im is interested in, so we're planning to visit."

She explained, "Since she's already attending an international school, studying abroad is something to consider. Even if we decide against it, it's better to know firsthand." Her husband, Jung Seok-won, questioned, "Can't you find out through research?"

Baek Ji-young insisted, "We need to see it with our own eyes," showing her determination. However, the couple had differing views on their daughter's potential study abroad. When asked by the production team if sending Ha-im to a boarding school was acceptable, Jung Seok-won candidly stated, "If I say no, she can't go. I should have that right."

Baek Ji-young agreed, "She needs her father's permission. It's not right for me to decide alone. It's about our child, and we shouldn't be unilateral." Jung Seok-won expressed his affection, saying, "Let's think about it slowly. I can't live apart from Ha-im."

Baek Ji-young married actor Jung Seok-won, who is nine years her junior, in 2013. Their daughter, Ha-im, currently attends an international school with tuition fees reportedly around 30 million won, drawing public attention.
