Kim Jong-kook's mother, expressing her feelings on leaving 'My Little Old Boy': "My son is married, so..."

A 5-Day Healing Trip to Las Vegas with His Son to Celebrate His Mother's 80th Birthday

Singer Kim Jong-kook has departed for Las Vegas, USA, with his mother. On the 9th, a video titled "PT that even my 80-year-old mother cannot avoid... (Feat. Mother)" was released on his YouTube channel, 'Kim Jong-kook GYM JONG KOOK.' Kim Jong-kook explained that due to a busy schedule, he couldn't properly celebrate his mother's 80th birthday last year, so he hurriedly prepared this trip now that his schedule has opened up.

The two stayed in Las Vegas for five days and four nights, enjoying the city scenery, shopping, and exploring famous restaurants. Kim Jong-kook, who enjoys exercising, stepped up as a one-day trainer for his mother. The video captured him conducting PT sessions, correcting his mother's exercise posture one by one. While his mother complained about the difficulty of his passionate coaching, she expressed her satisfaction after the workout, saying, "Exercising with my son was hard, but now I feel relieved."

Throughout the trip, his mother did not hide her affection for her son. Immediately after arriving in Las Vegas, she smiled brightly and said, "Thanks to my youngest son, I came to such a wonderful place and saw so many great things. I am so grateful." Even on the last day of the trip, she expressed her pride in the journey, saying, "I didn't expect this, but thanks to my son, I had a great time. I should come again next time."

"My son's marriage is even better" An honest confession about leaving 'My Little Old Boy'">

Updates and feelings regarding his mother, who was a key cast member of the SBS variety show 'My Little Old Boy' (Miu-sae) for a long time, were also shared. Kim Jong-kook mentioned that it has been quite a while since his mother appeared on the show and asked, "It's been a while since you appeared; do you feel regretful?" During that time, his mother had received great love from viewers while leading the program as Kim Jong-kook's mother, even attending the SBS Entertainment Awards.

The mother prioritized her son's happiness over her own regret. She replied, "My son is married, so it's natural that I can't appear on the show, but my son's marriage is even better." She made it clear that her son's marriage was a much more joyful event than her departure from the show. Kim Jong-kook married a non-celebrity wife last September and confessed through the broadcast at the time, "I thought I would be so happy if I married this person."

She also slightly hinted at her feelings toward her daughter-in-law. Although it was a trip taken only with her son, a sense of regret for not being able to include her daughter-in-law was evident. The mother smiled, saying, "I wish my daughter-in-law could have come too, but being here with my son makes me so happy." While acknowledging that her role in the variety show has naturally changed due to her son's marriage, she showed sincere celebration for the union of the family.
