Kim Byung-man's Wife Reveals Why They Kept Their Marriage and Children Secret

On the TV CHOSUN entertainment show ‘Love Farmers of Joseon,’ comedian Kim Byung-man's wife candidly shared the reasons behind their decision to keep their marriage and the birth of their two children private.

In a preview clip for the episode airing on the 8th, Kim's wife, speaking alone while he was out, opened up about her feelings to the production team. When asked about the difficulties of raising children, she admitted, "It's tough because there's so little I can do together with my husband, so I had to bear many burdens alone compared to others."

She further elaborated, "Even everyday matters for us draw attention. We couldn't even go to the hospital together when our child was sick." Watching this, Hwang Bo-ra empathized, stating, "Taking children to the hospital alone is truly difficult," while Kang Soo-ji expressed her sympathy, saying, "You must have felt very disappointed."

Most notably, Kim's wife revealed that she was the one who initially proposed keeping their marriage and their two children out of the public eye. "I suggested it from the beginning. When I found out I was pregnant, I told him we shouldn't tell anyone yet," she confessed. She explained her reasoning, believing, "We weren't at a point where we needed to announce anything… I thought that moment would come when the time was right."
