Actress Park Kyung-hye is gaining attention for sharing her realistic solo living experience as a four-month independent resident on the show 'I Live Alone'.

On the October 17th episode of MBC's 'I Live Alone', Park Kyung-hye introduced her approximately 6-pyeong studio apartment located in Yeoksam-dong, Gangnam-gu.

She revealed that she is living with a deposit of 50 million won and a monthly rent of 590,000 won, including maintenance and parking fees, stating, “This is my first time living alone and finding a place on my own.”

Regarding the traces of rust and mold left by the previous tenant, Park explained, “The previous tenant didn't manage the humidity well, so there are quite a few areas with rust or mold,” and added, “I also didn't inspect the house thoroughly when I first moved in.”

When asked by Kian84, “You've done a lot of work, couldn't you move to a bigger place?” she responded, “That was the budget I had. I wanted to find a place where I wouldn't feel financially pressured.”

She also shared that she has been working part-time at a café for two years, catching viewers' attention. Park confessed, “I've been doing part-time work for two years. When there are no projects, there's no steady income, so I thought it would be good to have an opportunity to earn money.”

She added, “Many of the part-timers at the café are also aspiring actors, so we help each other out.”

Viewers who watched the show commented, “It's a relatable story of living alone,” “Her unpretentiousness is charming,” and “Her positive energy is great,” showing their support.
