In ‘Joseon‘s Lovers’, Lee Kyung-sil confesses her feelings to her son Son Bo-seung for the first time.

In the ‘Joseon’s Lovers’ to be broadcast on the 13th, Lee Kyung-sil, her daughter Son Soo-ah, and her son Son Bo-seung will gather together for the first time in a long time. Lee Kyung-sil, who had been severing ties with her son Son Bo-seung for about a year after becoming a father at the age of 23 due to a premarital pregnancy, tells her son how she felt at the time for the first time.

Lee Kyung-sil said, “Bo-seung, when I wasn‘t looking at you, I thought to myself. The baby was already born and I had to accept reality, so why am I so angry? When I thought about it, it was just that my son had to become the head of the household at a young age and take responsibility for everything, which made me so upset,“ and poured out her heart. The ‘Lovers’ who were watching this sympathized with Lee Kyung-sil’s feelings, saying, “I know the weight of fathers... I was afraid he‘d have a hard time...”

Lee Kyung-sil continued, ”Your friends go out and play and travel, but you have to be the head of the household and take responsibility for your children. I was upset that you had to start that already. It was so sad,“ expressing her regret for her son who had to go down a different path during the prime of his youth. Kang Soo-ji, who saw this, sympathized with Lee Kyung-sil’s feelings, saying, ”Because you can‘t go back... I understand how you feel.“



Will Son Bo-seung be able to understand his mother’s feelings after hearing her feelings for the first time? The tense three-way confrontation can be seen on TV CHOSUN‘s ‘Joseon’s Lovers’’,’, which airs on Monday, the 13th at 10 p.m.
