Oh Kwang-rok avoided contact..No reunion sobbing after 7 years, festering wounds (with dad)



Actor Oh Kwang-rok was heartbroken by the tears of his son who reunited after seven years.

Actor Oh Kwang-rok and son Oh Si-won newly joined TV CHOSUN 'Dad and Me', which aired on the 13th.

On this day, Oh Kwang-rok said "I broke up with Siwon's mother before the child turned 5." Siwon's mom went to her parents' house, and I ended up staying alone." When he was a theater actor, his monthly income was 100,000 won, he said, "It's hard to build one body, but it's hard for three families to live"He said he had no choice but to break up with his family because of his difficulties in life.




Oh Kwang-rok, who said he had never lived with his son for nearly 30 years after divorce, said, "(The lack of memories of spending everyday time with my son) made me more distant. "(To talk to my son) It was not the time for cell phones, so I had to call home and change the phone, but I couldn't do it at my will. But any expression sounds stupid and ugly. I don't deserve to say what happened to my dad who couldn't resolve the meeting (with his son)." "It's been about 7 years since I saw my son before COVID-19. I don't answer (my son) and he doesn't reply even if I text him "Siwon, I think the weather is bad in my mind," he said with an awkward smile.

Oh Kwang-rok, who met his son for the first time in seven years, showed his affection by touching his son's face with joy. As for the reason for avoiding contact with his father, the son continued to blame his father, and his anger did not subside and could not be resolved. First of all, I had no intention of restoring the relationship"The reason why I came out like this is because it's good to get in touch with me, but I have a wound, and the hole in the wound looks like this, so let's look at the wound first and then talk about everyday things." Then "It's an old feeling that I've been feeling for so long that I still have anger. I don't think I knew how to solve it," he added.

The father and son Oh Kwang-rok recalled the COVID-19 period when they lost contact. At that time, Oh Kwang-rok had no choice but to refuse his son's request to eat with him because he was busy filming. The son "I was so brave that I asked him to eat with me, but I was upset that I couldn't eat."He confessed. Oh Kwang-rok understood his son's feelings, saying, "At that time, filming would be stopped when even one person came out with COVID-19, so I tried to have a cup of coffee because I couldn't eat at a restaurant, but they must have been disappointed because the time was not right for each other."




The son embarrassed Oh Kwang-rok by saying "Dad and I don't have the bond we should have had in childhood, adolescence." He said "Dad didn't have a presence with me. He was a person who didn't even know it existed, and he was worse than he was. When I was in 1st and 2nd grade, I was like, 'Where's Dad?', 'Dad, when are you coming?I said ' like a habit, but at some point, my father was not there. I don't have any memories of daily life that are too trivial. "I took out my childhood wounds.

But Oh Kwang-rok said "Daddy has a deeper bond with you than with you. Dad has everything from the time before you were born to the time before he sent you to your mother's house." The son, whose longing for his father became resentful, said "I think it's because he's angry that he keeps avoiding contact with his father. I think that was my expression. I was so angry that I didn't answer or reply. Not only my dad's phone but also my grandmother's phone. I should have been mad at my dad, but I think he was festering because I didn't do it", he confessed.

The son, who had a hard time due to the wounds he suffered from his parents' divorce as a child and the hardships of his life afterwards, eventually shed tears as he recalled the past. Oh Kwang-rok, who learned of his son's wounds for the first time, held his hand and expressed his sorry.




"When I see my father as an adult, my childhood memories are still in the dark," the son said. "I want him to know how hard my mom was alone and how mentally painful and hard I was to see her like that."." "Don't you know it's hard for a girl to raise a child alone?" Nothing can compensate for my mother's years, and my childhood is not coming back. I hope my dad approaches my mom with a sincere attitude that he had a hard time living in those days at least once, he carefully asked.

Oh Kwang-rok is a story of adults, but I always think that your mother always did her best to you. What do I deserve to tell my mom that I did my best. Of course, I acknowledge and respect it.' Then "I want my son to say things that he couldn't resolve in his heart without hesitation, and if that snatch is on me and Siwon's anger is relieved, I want him to throw it at me and move on." reported the wind.

Regarding how he felt about talking to his father after seven years, the son said, "It's not comfortable, but there's nothing I can't do. And I thought I should talk more and get used to it. I don't want to leave this relationship as it is. "I don't want to stay like this. I think I will be relieved only when I share things that I couldn't say."
