Korean TV Personality Jeong Ju-ri Shares Hilarious Insights on Motherhood and Marriage

Jeong Ju-ri, a beloved figure on the Korean show 'Joseon's Lovebirds,' recently showcased her strong marital bond.

On the October 26th episode of TV Chosun's 'Joseon's Lovebirds,' viewers were treated to broadcaster Park Eun-young's journey of giving birth to her second child.

Park Eun-young humorously introduced herself as the "icon of late motherhood at 45." As she prepared for her second childbirth, she received natural childbirth tips from Jeong Ju-ri, a mother of five.

Jeong Ju-ri warmly welcomed Park Eun-young, who appeared with her full-term baby bump. Park shared, "Ju-ri taught me how to give birth. She advised me to push as if I were having a bowel movement," bringing laughter to the set.

Jeong Ju-ri proudly shared that she delivered all five of her sons naturally, with no medical intervention for the first three. When asked about her choice for natural childbirth, she revealed, "My first was conceived before marriage, and the hospital I secretly found specialized in natural births."

Due to the demands of raising three children, Jeong Ju-ri opted for induced labor from her fourth child onward. She humorously recounted, "The epidural was a revelation. Once, while my husband briefly stepped out, I held off giving birth until he returned, just so he could witness the moment."

Discussing the realities of motherhood, Jeong Ju-ri shared, "My fridge is filled with my breast milk. They call me 'Ju-ri's Dairy.' While folding laundry, my youngest comes over to nurse." She added a funny anecdote about her third child, who once drank her milk after eating spicy ramen.

When asked about co-sleeping, Jeong Ju-ri replied, "The fourth and fifth sleep with us." Park Eun-young jokingly questioned, "Isn't that funny? When do you find the time?" Jeong Ju-ri confidently responded, "If you want something, you make it happen," eliciting laughter.

Adding to the humor, Jeong Ju-ri recounted, "My sister-in-law and her husband, a DINK couple, lived with us for three months to help with the kids. During that time, I got pregnant. My brother-in-law jokingly asked, 'When did you find the time? Are we invisible?' My sister-in-law nicknamed us 'Love Bugs.'"

Jeong Ju-ri also flaunted her chemistry with her husband, who is a year younger. She shared, "Our last kiss was this morning. It's not just about kissing; it depends on what you focus on. I find him more attractive when he's a bit rugged and unkempt."

Meanwhile, Jeong Ju-ri confirmed, "We have no plans for a sixth child. After our fifth, my husband had a vasectomy, so more children are not in our future."
