[Asia Economy Intern Reporter Kim Seul-gi] Actor Kim Dong-hee (21) expressed his heartfelt feelings toward his mother.

On the 17th, the tvN show 'You Quiz on the Block (YouQuiz)' aired a special episode titled 'The One and Only Self,' featuring Kim Dong-hee as the first guest.

During the broadcast, Yoo Jae-suk asked Kim Dong-hee about his job satisfaction, and Kim Dong-hee replied, "100%. My family likes it. Especially my mother really likes it."

He added, "My mother has never praised my acting. She looks at it objectively. Recently, I asked her how she felt about the positive reviews for 'Extracurricular,' and she said, 'It doesn't seem like they like it because you're good at it.'"

Kim Dong-hee continued, "I don't think there has ever been a time in my life that wasn't difficult. I wanted to talk about this somewhere. I live with my mother alone. She worked hard raising me by herself. My mother is young. She was born in 1975, and thinking about it now makes my heart ache."

He shared, "I don't think my mother had a youth of her own. She sacrificed so much for me, and it breaks my heart. Now, I want to give back my mother's youth and sacrifice myself to enrich her life. I want to spend a little more time with my mother," expressing deep affection.

Kim Dong-hee said, "My mother had me at a young age and seems to have devoted her entire youth to me. I hope she doesn't think she couldn't do enough for me. I will take her on overseas trips, buy her a house and a car. She has worked so hard all this time."

Kim Dong-hee rose to fame playing the role of Cha Seo-jun in JTBC's 'SKY Castle' in 2018, which became a hot topic. Recently, he has been actively working, appearing in 'Itaewon Class,' 'Extracurricular,' and more.
