Former LPG member and announcer Park Seo-hui has revealed her path to becoming a shaman.

On the October 2nd episode of MBN's 'Special World,' Park Seo-hui shared her story of receiving a spiritual calling and her current life.

Appearing in a small shrine in the heart of Seoul, Park Seo-hui was seen in traditional attire, receiving a spiritual blessing, capturing the audience's attention.

She explained, "I kept dreaming about my family members dying. The dreams were so vivid that I woke up crying," adding, "When I went to see a fortune teller, the first thing they said was, 'You are filled with spirits,'" revealing the background of her spiritual calling.

She continued, "What should I do? If I don't accept it... my family means everything to me. I want to live my life as a broadcaster, but I have to walk this path," she said, shedding tears.

Park Seo-hui also met with Kim Hye-seon, a fellow cast member from 'Goal Hitting Girls,' and confessed, "When I was rejecting this (spiritual calling), I thought every day about 'how can I die?' It seemed better to just end as an announcer. I would remain as a 'shaman's daughter' to my parents," expressing her sorrow.

Her father, who accompanied her to pray in the mountains, said, "It hurts. She studied well, graduated from a prestigious university, and lacks nothing," adding, "My daughter is so pitiful," and eventually broke down in tears. Park Seo-hui also admitted that her heart broke the first time she saw her father cry.

Born in 1993, Park Seo-hui is known to be proficient in five languages and graduated from Korea University's International Studies. After leaving the group LPG in 2014, she pursued a career as an announcer and appeared on various entertainment programs.
