SS501's Kyujong appeared on Dec 1st's episode of Strong Heart, where he tells his story about his father with teary eyes. Kyujong considers the 4-time world record-holding archer as his hero, who had to give up sports because of some financial problems. Check out his touching story!
"My father was forced to give up sports and opened up a small snack stall. The business was doing well until 'people who used their fists' forced us out.
I wanted to become a singer so, starting from middle school, I began attending auditions. I came to Seoul, but there was no place for me to sleep. I decided to stay at my father's place and it was then that I realized he had been living in his office this entire time.
During practices, I would mooch off food from the other members. However, I grew angry at the thought of not being able to repay them back, so I asked my father for an allowance. It was then that saw my father working for the first time. He was wearing training clothes, carrying cabbages. It's not like he was doing anything bad, but I felt strange because I had always seen my father as a strong and dignified person. I was about to turn around and leave when my father called to me and gave me a hefty sum (at the time) of 100,000 won (around $100). I took the money, but it hurt my heart to do so and tears began swelling up in my eyes. While reflecting on my actions, I felt so immature."
In the end Kyujong left a message for his father: "When I entered the real world, I came to understand your heart and I promised myself that I would become a great father like you in the future. Even though you may be having a hard time now, I will fulfill all the promises we made together so please be strong and... I love you. I hope you can be reborn as a father with a strong heart again."
