[Asia Economy Intern Reporter Kang Joo-hee] Kang Moon-young from 'Burning Youth' offered sincere comfort to Oh Seung-eun, touching viewers.

In the SBS variety show 'Burning Youth' aired on the 12th, actor Kang Moon-young and new friend Oh Seung-eun were shown having a deep conversation.

That day, Kang Moon-young, who is raising her daughter alone, and Oh Seung-eun naturally talked about parenting. When asked if she had any concerns, Oh Seung-eun said, "My eldest is going through a sensitive period, so I'm worried. She's strong and chic, but doesn't express her feelings well. So I'm worried. Her adolescence is intense. People say 'it's just adolescence' and move on, but it hurts."

Kang Moon-young comforted her, saying, "My daughter also sulks alone sometimes. I don't take it too sensitively," and added, "Don't feel sorry for your children. They can even dislike that. It's not your fault."

Oh Seung-eun said, "I always talk as if I'm an inadequate mother, so I have feelings of inferiority and guilt towards my child, and end up snapping. This always hurts me deeply," and continued, "The kids say, 'Even if mom and dad fight, I like having dad around.' Even when I overcome it well, hearing that makes me feel completely drained," she said, shedding tears.

In response, Kang Moon-young encouraged her, saying, "Tell her that mom hasn't committed any sin. We haven't done anything wrong," and added, "We met someone we loved, had children, and then parted ways because our paths diverged. You can overcome this. Soon, she will definitely say, 'Mom, you're so cool,' and 'I want to see mom more on TV.'"

Kang Moon-young also advised, "You don't need to feel more sorry because of the absence of a father," and said, "Your child loves you, right? And you just need to look at her with 1000% belief that my daughter feels the same."
