In the latest episode of SBS's 'My Little Old Boy' aired on January 5, 2025, actor Choi Jin-hyuk shared a heartfelt moment with his mother as they reminisced about her past hardships, including being a victim of a scam. During their trip to Jakarta, Indonesia, for a fan meeting, the duo visited the largest seafood restaurant in the city. When his mother expressed concern about the prices, Choi reassured her, saying, 'It's cheap here.' The restaurant operates on a system where customers weigh their seafood in baskets for pricing.
Reflecting on the previous day's fan meeting, Choi's mother expressed disbelief at how far they had come, stating, 'I can't believe what I saw yesterday.' When asked if she enjoyed the fan meeting, she replied, 'You did so well. I was really nervous at first; my heart was racing,' as tears welled in her eyes.
She also recalled the struggles they faced in the past, mentioning how they had to sell their house to support Choi's dream of becoming a singer. 'It seems like everything started to go wrong from that point,' she candidly shared. She recounted a time when someone promised to help Choi become a singer, initially claiming it wouldn't cost them anything, but the expenses kept increasing as they searched for a place to stay, leading to their unfortunate experience with a scam.
