Song Joong-ki talks about raising children: ‘Son looks like wife, daughter looks like me’

On January 10, KBS2 program “The Seasons-Lee Young-ji’s Rainbow” aired its new episode featuring Song Joong-ki, SEVENTEEN BooSeokSoon, GFRIEND and Kassy.

Actor Song Joong-ki decided to make his first appearance in a music program via “The Seasons”. He shared, “This recording studio is very familiar to me. I hosted “Music Bank” for two years. I wasn’t nervous then, but I’m very nervous now.” The actor confessed “My fans said they would sue me if I sang and danced anywhere. I came here with the determination to report myself.” Lee Young-ji tried to ease the tension, saying “No one here thinks Song Joong-ki can sing well.”

Song Joong-ki complimented Lee Young-ji, saying “You’re like Korea’s Oprah Winfrey.” In response, Lee Young-ji said, “I have admired you since I was young. “Werewolf Boy” is my favorite movie. I wanted to marry you, but unfortunately you are already married.”

Regarding his experience as the MC of “Music Bank,” Song Joong-ki said, “They were recruiting an MC and I auditioned for the position. I didn’t want to miss this opportunity.” Immediately, “The Seasons” showed a video of Song Joong-ki performing 4Minute’s “Hot Issue” in the past, making the actor feel extremely embarrassed and forcing him to beg the staff to turn off the video. He shared, “Back then I often winked. I also greeted Seo Hyo-rim (who was her co-MC) with a raised leg. I was having so much fun, that’s why I raised my leg,” make Lee Young-ji laugh by reenacting the scene.

Lee Young-ji asked Song Joong-ki, who became the father of a son and a daughter, “Do your children look like their father or mother?”. Song Joong-ki replied, “My first child is 19 months old now. Our son’s face looks more like his mother’s, but our daughter looks like me. They are very cute.”

When asked about the changes after becoming the head of the family, the actor said: “My mentality has changed a lot. I think I should do many good deeds since I have some influence in society. Being kind is a way to create a good world for my children.” Song Joong-ki pointed out that its YouTube algorithms have also changed, adding “If you have a child, you will obviously be familiar with the thing called ‘Bbibbobbibbo 119’. The teachers will provide you with detailed guides. I also watched all the videos of Dr. Oh Eun-young’s program to learn parenting skills.”

Lee Young-ji wondered: “If your child doesn’t listen and do everything you want, just like me, what would you do?”Song Joong-ki replied, “I don’t think Young-ji is that kind of guy. I’m a first-time father. I don’t know how to deal with it in detail, but my wife and I are having a lot of discussions about finding the best way to educate our children.”

Lee Young-ji then asked Song Joong-ki what his favorite songs were and the actor shared: “By listening to my favorite songs, my wife has also learned to appreciate ‘For Lovers Who Hesitate’ and ‘Boast’ by Kwak Jin-eon.” Lee Young-ji commented, “I asked you what your favorite songs were but you only talked about your wife.”

After the speech, Song Joong-ki performed the OST of “My Mister” “My Self In My Heart” and “Two People” by Sung Si-kyung.
