Actress Park Ha-sun revealed an anecdote about suffering from postpartum depression.
On JTBC entertainment show ‘Divorce Consideration Camp’ aired on the 26th, the story of the 13th ‘Palanggui Couple’ was revealed.In particular, the daily life of the wife, who is exhausted from raising a 23-month-old child, was introduced, and Park Ha-sun, who watched this, carefully brought up her own experience.
The wife confessed that she was irritated with the child, saying, “It seems like she has no maternal love,” and that she was also in conflict with her husband.She was suffering from extreme stress, to the point where even the sound of the child crying was burdensome and she even said, “I shouldn’t have given birth to her.” In the video, the wife disciplined her daughter in a loud tone, saying, “Speak,” and showed sharp reactions to each and every one of the child’s actions.The guests in the studio who saw this also couldn’t hide their heavy expressions.
Park Ha-sun recalled, “Even after giving birth, I felt like I had no maternal love.It was so hard that I held it in for so long that I cried to my husband, saying, ‘I don’t think I have maternal love.’” She continued, “Maternal love is different for everyone.I developed it while raising my child.That was a really hard time, but after a while, my child became a great strength.”
Park Ha-sun also emphasized that some people who consider postpartum depression to be trivial said, “It’s not something that can be treated with mental strength.It’s all due to hormones.Your husband really needs to treat you well.” She said that she actually suppressed her emotions to the point where the blood vessels in her face burst, and that “my husband was surprised when he saw me.That’s when I realized how serious it was.”
Meanwhile, in the broadcast that day, the wife of the ‘Palanggui Couple’ expressed her disappointment, saying that even though she had been diagnosed with postpartum depression in the past, her husband told her, “It’s because you have weak mentality.” Park Ha-sun responded, “It’s hard to empathize with postpartum depression unless you’ve experienced it yourself,” and pointed out that the husband also needs to change his perception.
Park Ha-sun married actor Ryu Soo-young in 2017 and gave birth to a daughter the same year.She continues to live as a mother, raising her child while also working.
