Comedian Jung Ju-ri Faces Parenting Challenges, Dr. Oh Eun-young Highlights Key Issue

Comedian Jung Ju-ri has opened up about the struggles of raising her five children, with renowned parenting expert Dr. Oh Eun-young offering insights on her approach. The episode of Channel A's 'My Golden Kids,' aired on the 12th, featured Jung's 'battle-like' parenting style.

A significant portion of the episode focused on the morning routine, specifically the difficulty in getting her fourth child ready for kindergarten. Jung employed various tactics to persuade the child, but ultimately ended up 30 minutes late.

Observing the situation, Dr. Oh praised Jung for avoiding harsh disciplinary methods but pointed out a crucial missing element: the clear directive that the child 'must go.' Dr. Oh explained that by focusing too much on secondary persuasive tactics without emphasizing the necessity of attending kindergarten on time, the child might not learn the importance of adhering to obligations, even when reluctant.

Jung Ju-ri, a well-known South Korean comedian, is married to a non-celebrity husband and is a mother to five children.

She debuted in 2005 and gained popularity through various comedy shows, particularly KBS's 'Gag Concert.'

Jung often shares her candid experiences and difficulties as a mother of a large family on parenting reality programs.
