Yoon Eun-hye Recounts 25-Year Trauma, Empathizes with Evictees on 'Tale of Night'

SBS's 'Tale of Night' (꼬리에 꼬리를 무는 그날 이야기) is set to delve into the horrific violence perpetrated by the 'Jeokjun Labor Force' under the guise of urban redevelopment demolition.

The episode, titled 'My Vanished Home, and Jeokjun,' will investigate the notorious acts of 'labor gangsters' in Seoul's redevelopment zones during the 1990s. Actress Yoon Eun-hye, formerly of the group Baby V.O.X., will join as a listener, adding a unique perspective to the harrowing story.

The program will expose the brutal realities of demolition during that era, where the so-called 'labor gangsters,' with tacit approval from authorities, engaged in assault, property destruction, and severe human rights violations. These acts included throwing elementary school students down stairs and assaulting pregnant women, painting a grim picture of the past.

Deeply moved by the plight of the evictees, Yoon Eun-hye shared her own painful experiences, revealing a 25-year-old trauma from a past incident where she nearly lost her sight due to a water gun attack filled with acid during her singing career. She expressed profound empathy, stating that the evictees' suffering was far greater than her own.

Witnessing the brutal footage, Yoon Eun-hye and fellow guests reacted with shock and anger, condemning the perpetrators' actions as demonic and describing the situation as a living hell. The episode promises to uncover the true nature of the 'Jeokjun Labor Force' and the systemic failures that allowed such violence to occur.

Yoon Eun-hye debuted in 1997 with the girl group Baby V.O.X., achieving immense popularity. She has since actively pursued a career as a solo singer and actress, showcasing her versatile talents. She continues to be loved for her consistent activities in various fields, including acting, singing, and variety shows.
