[Sportschosun Jung An-ji] Actress Jeon Won-ju expressed her affection for her great-grandchildren and said, "I felt like I need to live longer."
On the 23rd, a video titled "Jeon Won-ju, Who Has Become a Great-Grandmother, Introduces Her Adorable Great-Grandchild" was uploaded to the YouTube channel "Jeon Won-ju - Jeon Won-ju in the Lead Role."
In the video, Jeon Won-ju said, "My great-granddaughter was born. I'm no longer just a grandmother, I'm a great-grandmother now," adding candidly, "I should be happy, but honestly, I keep thinking, 'I guess it's getting close to the time I die.'"
She then smiled brightly and said, "How cute," while watching her 20-month-old great-grandson imitate his father eating corn and cleaning.
Seeing her son and great-grandson together, she said, "It's lovely, but I keep thinking, 'I'm getting too old.' When I see my son carrying the great-grandchild around, I think, 'Wow, time really flies.'"
She also shared photos taken with her great-grandson and said with a slightly disappointed look, "I just glanced at them," but then proudly added, "Still, he's amazing. He looks great. He's very smart."
A 40-day-old great-granddaughter was also introduced. When the production team said, "You must want to do everything for her," Jeon Won-ju made everyone laugh by replying honestly, "No, I don't want to do everything for her."
She then said, "I couldn't help smiling when I saw my great-granddaughter," and added, "Time passes quickly, but I thought, 'At least I didn't live foolishly. For these children, I need to work even harder and live until they grow old enough to recognize their great-grandmother.'" She went on to laugh, saying, "Old age is so nice. Seeing my great-grandchildren is even better than seeing my other grandchildren."
