In a recent video, K-pop singer and actress Song Ji Eun bravely opened up about her ongoing struggle with mental health issues. The idol, who rose to fame as a member of the girl group SECRET, shared that over the past few years, she has been dealing with a lot of anxiety on her own.
Song Ji Eun admitted that during her time in the group, she used to prioritize other people's feelings and opinions over her own. "Before getting married, I tended to follow the team's opinions rather than my own. I was always going along with the trend. Because of that, it was hard for me to be kind to myself. I kept ignoring my own feelings," she revealed.
The singer also shared that her K-pop career brought her more negative emotions than positive ones. "I didn't feel happiness from being loved so much, but anxiety about whether I would fall behind or lose my place," she added. Despite trying to maintain a facade, Song Ji Eun was struggling internally, always feeling the "ground shaking" underneath her.
However, her husband, Park We, shared that Song Ji Eun has changed a lot for the better after their marriage two years ago. "It took me two years to realize that Ji Eun has a strong sense of taste. During our dating days, she was a 'yes girl'," he revealed, indicating that she has become more confident and true to herself.
