Oh Yoon-ah, who appeared on SBS Plus and E-channel entertainment program 『Soloist』, which aired on the 22nd, said "I've been solo for about 9 years since my divorce in 2016, and I've been alone for almost 13 years including the period of separation.' He is raising a 19-year-old son and has three family members living with his mother," he said.
Oh Yoon-ah said "Son Min is the driving force of my life. I have a developmental disability, so I always have to take care of it like a child. It was really hard to raise it alone," he confessed. In particular, he recalled that `I almost always stayed together until the fifth grade of elementary school so that I wouldn't feel the absence of my father.'
He "Min used to hang on to other people's dad even though he was playing with other children. 'Where's your mom?It was our people when we heard the words '. I felt sorry for him, so I tried to stay with him even more," he added.
Also "There are always pictures of cars and men on the side of the room. I think that's the symbol of my dad to Min"There are times when I regret my divorce, and I always feel sorry because I feel like I've created an empty seat for my father."
I also mentioned my relationship with my dad. "I have no interaction with my child's father at all," Oh Yoon-ah said. "Min is not good at general reactions, so he was embarrassed even when he met his father for the first time in a long time. When I was young, I was sad about my father's absence, but now I think I understand it little by little."
