Wonder Girls’ Sunye was wounded by her father’s words

[icedevil0289.livejournal.com]

Wonder Girls leader Sunye opened up about her father’s passing.

During a recent filming for the episode of KBS 2TV‘s ‘Do Dream‘, Sunye admitted there are some things she regrets saying to her father while he was alive.

The topic of conversation was ‘Someone I Would Love to Meet Just Once‘, and Sunye revealed when she was younger, she lived separately from her father who used to work the night shift. But when they began living under the same roof, she was burdened by her father who tried too hard to become a responsible parent. Her father was against Sunye becoming a celebrity, and Sunye who was a young and immature adolescent had said some hurtful things to him.

“I didn’t express my feelings much back then, but as I went through puberty, I began to outwardly display my emotions towards my father,” she said. Sunye continued, “He came home drunk one night and told me he never wanted to have me in the first place. I was so hurt that I lashed out and said some hurtful things back to him.”

She regretfully remarked that she never meant to say those things, and Hwang Suk Young comforted her by saying, “Parents don’t take those kind of things to heart, because they only remember the things they did wrong to their children.”

The episode airs at 10:05PM on December 10th.

...she shouldn't feel too guilty. Even though her dad was drunk, saying he never wanted to have her isn't such a nice thing to say :/

and I mean guilty about what she said to him, not her feeling guilty about his passing.

Sunye stay strong. Parents say the dumbest things when they're drunk. On many occasions my father told us all he didn't give a shit even if we all died. Parents are humans and life is a bitch. We need to now the good things come with the bad.

omg i know sunye's glad to be back in korea but i feel like she's sharing too much of herself with everyone and reliving all the painful memories of her past :( i mean it's ok right now because everyone cares about her since wg is relevant in korea, but once they go back to the states they'll start to get lonely again and then these memories will be like fresh recent gaping wounds :( :( :(

she's sharing too much of herself

i love sunye but IA D: i feel like korean celebrities do that a lot in talk shows in general though, especially in strong heart where they basically have to outdo each other

[threebits.livejournal.com]

iasm especially the first part

[uniqlos.livejournal.com]

idk, i don't think she gets lonely in the us, they've all kind of gotten used to living there. i actually think they're more comfortable living in ny than they are in seoul tbh. she's said that living there was the most important period of her life.

Yeah I sorta agree. Being away from home sucks but they've definitely become family enough to each other that it makes it easier to swallow, I imagine.

Plus I think it's been really liberating for them. Not only in terms of dating/being able to go shopping and clubbing like normal girls w/o being mauled by fans/etc but being able to see the world and ofc learning from the best producers and songwriters.

I agree with the second part. Now that WG are back in Korea, I wonder if they're starting to feel the scrutiny that comes with being an idol?

I hope she will feel better about this in the future. I think her father would want her to be happy.
Btw, I don't really listen WG but I was wondering if Sunye was feeling well during the shoot in photo? She looks so thin and sick =(

I can understand her , he is dead she can't apologize or fix anything ..... stay strong and amazing Sunye

[turdferguson.livejournal.com]

that's a fucked up thing to say to your own child

[lazmy.livejournal.com]

my dad used to tsay the same things to me. i'm happy he's out of my life.

sunye stay strong love. you're amazing.

[kmrawr.livejournal.com]

LOL my mom tells me she wishes she never had kids all the time. nbd.

[headswillroll88.livejournal.com]

idt saying it in a joking manner is the same as this.

[kmrawr.livejournal.com]

she wasn't joking. i just play it off as a joke so it doesn't hurt so much to think about it.

[akaich0u.livejournal.com]

Again, the crap she's been dealt with growing up is just so sad. Not that it gives one license to say such things, but I feel like her dad was just given the wrong hand by life as well--his wife's passing, chronic illness, supporting a young child by working the night shift of all things. I can imagine why all of that pent up stress would manifest itself into such a feeling, especially while drunk.

[stormsandsins.livejournal.com]

Uh, she shouldn't feel too sorry tbh. What he said wasn't too kind either.

Tit for tat, imo. Karma's a bitch and all that. Seriously, you don't say that to your kid.

I can understand her feeling hurt by her dad's comments. My dad and mom were college sweethearts (but never married) who stopped dating when I was two. I was living with my mom all this time because my dad's new wife didn't want the competition, however, my mom moved to another country when I was four because of a job. The deal she made with my dad and step-mom was that when she settled down after a few months, I would go live with her. My dad kept me and prevented her from seeing me. So, I grew up believing that my mom had abandoned me (his words.) When I turned 14, my mom finally got his "permission" to see me and she told me the whole truth. My mom asked me to come live with her when I turned 16 but my dad refused. I told him I was leaving with or without his permission. That's when he told me that he didn't even want me, anyway. When my mom told him she was pregnant, he gave her money to get an abortion but my mom refused. My dad was under the impression that she had done it, went off on a trip, came back months later to find my mom still pregnant. He stayed with her until I turned two before marrying my step-mom. When he told me all that and how he kept me from her, I just quietly packed my stuff and left one day. I left the country and moved to the US. I haven't talked to my dad in about 10 years.

My mom says I should forgive him because life is short and she doesn't want a situation where we may never see each other again and all these issues remain between us. I haven't decided yet.

That sucks. I don't know what would be the best thing for you to do, but I think no matter how much you hate your dad right now, see him at least once because even though he did some harsh things to you and your mom, he did raise you up. You might will regret not seeing him when he's gone :/

IDK.....this "parents" issue is very sensitive. No matter how bad or good your parents are.....just feel lucky that you DO have parents. *shrug

[fay-of-sunshine.livejournal.com]

what??
not to equate what i'm about to say with sunye's situation, but are you saying in general: better abusive parents than no parents?
idts.
