Former basketball player Hyun Joo-yeop once again brought up the hurt that spread to his family following the controversy over abuse of power.
Recently, on the YouTube channel ‘Hyun Joo-yeop’s Food Court’, ‘New Year’s fortune-telling scene of shock and fear!!! A video titled ‘YouTube.. Can I continue???’ was released. In the video, Hyun Joo-yeop visits a shaman to read New Year’s fortunes and carefully faces the situation that has recently befallen him and his family.
A shaman said of Hyeon Joo-yeop, “It’s like a big rootless pine tree standing in a gravel field,” and “There are so many obstacles that it must be removed at least once.” He then added a warning about human relationships, saying, “This is a time when you may be betrayed by people around you.” Hyun Joo-yeop had a stern expression, unable to continue speaking.
The conversation naturally led to talking about children. The shaman pointed out, “You can raise your second child to be cute, but your eldest son has a lot of talent in the arts and physical education, but it feels like his path is cut off and blocked.” Hyun Joo-yeop could not hide his surprise at these words. In fact, the eldest son had quit playing basketball.
The shaman continued, “Despair is the problem rather than failure itself. The child has closed off his confidence and mind, and the cause is the father.” Hyun Joo-yeop’s face became even more serious when he heard, “Even when my father tells me to ‘sit, stand,’ I don’t listen. I’m trapped inside myself.” He lowered his head without saying anything for a while.
The shaman advised, “We need to use the stories we heard today as an opportunity to reset. Only then can we set the child upright again.” Hyun Joo-yeop seemed to sigh deeply and reflect on his responsibility as a father.
Hyun Joo-yeop previously confessed his conflict with his eldest son through a broadcast preview. TV CHOSUN In the teaser video for Season 3 of Dad and Me, he confessed, “After the controversy, I was mentally broken to the point where everyday life was difficult. If it had been just me, I could have endured it, but the most painful thing was having to make it difficult for my children and my wife as well.”
In particular, after the controversy, the eldest son gave up basketball and decided to take a leave of absence amidst the attention and harassment of students around him. Hyun Joo-yeop expressed his regret, saying, “Jun-hee spent the longest time in the hospital. He is probably the person going through the most difficult time.” The eldest son also added to his sorrow by expressing mixed feelings, saying, “In the past, my father was my dream, but now he feels like a broken hero.”
There was a corrective report regarding the controversy over abuse of power, but the wound did not heal easily. Hyun Joo-yeop received psychiatric treatment due to extreme stress at the time, and had a difficult time losing more than 40 kg. He repeatedly said, “What was most painful was the disruption of my family’s daily life.”
Meanwhile, the honest story of Hyun Joo-yeop and his eldest son will be revealed through ‘Dad and Me Season 3’.
