[Asia News = Reporter Reakkana] Sayuri, who had given birth to a son through in vitro fertilization, gave a witty response to an elderly woman who expressed worry that she was raising her son without a father. In the KBS2 'The Return of the Superman', Sayuri took a trip to Jeju island with her son, Zen.
An elderly Haenyeo woman who saw Sayuri and Zen said, "I think I saw you on TV." Another elderly woman added, "I think I saw the dad on TV too," making Sayuri flustered. "I'm both the mom and the dad. I raise my child alone", Sayuri responded. One of the elderly women then stated, "Oh no, how do you raise a kid without a father?" to which Sayuri responded, "there are good people around me so I can do it." The conversation continued, "Raising a son is much harder than raising a daughter. How can you raise him without a father?"
The elderly woman continued to worry, so she went on to ask one of them, "Do you have a son? How old is he this year? If he didn't marry, he can marry me then you can automatically get a grandson." Sayuri continued to say, "I can raise him well. If you're that worried, then you can give me your son, don't just say it in words."
