It has been revealed that Joon, the son of actor Sung Dong-il who appeared on the television show 'Dad! Where Are We Going?', is currently studying at the College of Engineering at Hanyang University.
Sung Dong-il recently appeared on actor Ryu Jin's YouTube channel, where the two talked about the children they got to know through 'Dad! Where Are We Going?'.
Ryu Jin opened up by saying, "Lately, I've been feeling lonely. As time goes by, I realize that the only person who will stay with me for life is my wife."
In response, Sung Dong-il advised, "That's a problem that will naturally disappear as the kids grow up. Once you help them become independent, life becomes easier." He explained that his son Joon is a college student and his daughter Bin is in her second year of high school.
Sung Dong-il emphasized, "Joon is working part-time in Daechi-dong and is traveling around the country with his earnings. He manages everything on his own. I've never told him what to do. I just said, 'I'll support you as much as I can. After that, you're on your own.'"
Regarding his son's choice to study engineering, Sung Dong-il added, "I majored in mechanical design. Joon is quite different from me. He's naturally gifted in mathematics, so there's nothing else for him to do. He'll find his own way," showing a laid-back attitude.
Raising three children, Sung Dong-il explained, "Raising kids is like experiencing all four seasons every day. One moment you're angry because of one child, and the next you're laughing because of another. Raising a daughter taught me to be more about women."
