• Actress Lee Soo Kyung Reveals She Almost Quit Acting due to a Mysterious Skin Condition

    Actress Lee Soo Kyung has opened up about the shocking reason behind her long hiatus, revealing she once thought about quitting acting completely.

    On the March 18 episode of SBS Plus and E Channel’s Solo Because, Lee Soo Kyung’s daily life was shown, where she candidly talked about her four-year struggle with an unexplained skin condition that affected her career and mental health.

    During the show, Lee Soo Kyung was seen taking edible aroma oil in an empty capsule and massaging it into her hands.

    She explained, “I’ve been learning this for over a year. My skin is extremely sensitive. My face broke out so badly that I couldn’t work for a while.”

    Recalling the terrifying experience, she said, “I was shocked when I saw my face in the mirror. Every day, it got worse, and I didn’t know what to do. It started on my body, but then my face became so severe that even makeup couldn’t cover it. I had to stop working completely.”

    Lee Soo Kyung revealed that her skin condition had no cure, and the uncertainty made things even harder. “My entire face broke out like a teenager with severe acne, and there was no solution. It was really tough. Depression and social anxiety hit me at the same time.”

    She added, “People I had seen just a week before would ask, ‘What happened to you all of a sudden?’ When that happens, it’s impossible not to feel depressed.”

    On top of her health struggles, problems with her agency also took a toll on her. “I took a break for about four years. Acting is the only thing I’ve done my whole life, but if my condition never improved, I might have had to change careers. I had a lot to think about during that time,” she confessed.

    During her break, she learned new skills and obtained certifications in aromatherapy, dog training, and leathercraft to explore other career options.

    After two years, Lee Soo Kyung’s skin finally healed—so much so that even doctors were surprised. Looking back, she said, “At the time, it felt like the worst thing ever, but now I think I needed that period in my life.”

    Now that she’s recovered, fans are excited to see what’s next for Lee Soo Kyung as she returns to the spotlight!

  • Former S.E.S Shoo brings her twin daughters to a night market and reveals emotional story: “I once sold clothes just to get by”

    Former S.E.S member Shoo (Yoo Soo Young) warmed hearts as she shared a touching moment with her twin daughters—taking them to the same wholesale market where she once worked during a difficult time in her life.

    On May 8, Shoo posted several photos on Instagram showing her spending time with her twin daughters, Ra Hee and Ra Yul, at the Dongdaemun wholesale market. In the caption, she wrote, “Did everyone enjoy the holiday? I feel like I made a memory I’ll never forget for the rest of my life.”

    The photos showed Shoo and her daughters smiling brightly while eating and shopping together. Her daughters, now visibly grown up, were even seen wearing similar shoes and clothes as their mom.

    Shoo opened up about a painful chapter in her past. “When I was struggling, I once sold clothes I got from Dongdaemun with the help of a friend,” she shared. “I used to go there from night to early morning, picking up fleece clothes, hairpins, and shoes, thinking, ‘My kids would love this if I brought them here.’”

    Now that her daughters are older, Shoo finally fulfilled that dream. “We laughed so much while shopping. We bought hairpins, socks, and clothes together,” she said. “They’ve grown so much—they can even wear the same things as me.”

    Reflecting on the experience, she added, “Memories of my past flashed before my eyes. I told them how I used to work late at night, carrying heavy bags and walking around for 10 hours straight.”

    Shoo emotionally concluded, “I was so happy to show my kids the nighttime world I once worked in.”

    Fans who remember Shoo’s twins from The Return of Superman were touched to see how much they’ve grown. Shoo, now a proud mom of three, continues to update fans through her TV appearances and social media, showing her strength as both a mother and former idol.
