Let's talk about Kim Soo-mi's 50-year acting life, this time with cultural critic Ha Jae-geun. Critic, you're out, right?

[Ha Jae-geun]
Hello.

[Anchor]
I think many people were surprised by your active broadcasting activities until recently, but since when did your health deteriorate?

[Ha Jae-geun]
Since May of this year, Kim Soo-mi's health has been talked about. In May, Kim Soo-mi appeared in my mother's creative musical, and after finishing the musical, there was a story that she was hospitalized from the end of that month, that is, from the end of May. After that, there was a story that he was hospitalized in July. However, many fans were shocked to hear the news this time, even though many people didn't think that the recording of the program starring Kim Soo-mi would be very unhealthy because the broadcast continued and Kim Soo-mi was active in other ways.

[Anchor]
Last month, I think I appeared on a home shopping broadcast, but there were a lot of people who were worried that they were not in good health.

[Ha Jae-geun]
At that time, rumors of deteriorating health came out once again, but when Kim Soo-mi appeared on the home shopping channel last month, she said that she was in a different mood than usual, so the viewers said that she was not in good health, but at that time, Kim Soo-mi's side said no. He said he was temporarily in a bad condition, not a health problem, but in the end, he has been very active in various activities. So, it is said that there was accumulation of fatigue and stress related to business, but I think my health deteriorated due to various things overlapping.

[Anchor]
It seems that many fellow celebrities, including Kim Yong-gun, who has worked with him on dramas and entertainment programs, are also very surprised and sad right now. Celebrities are mourning right now, right?

[Ha Jae-geun]
That's right. Many celebrities are now in great shock and mourning, and Shin Hyun-joon was very familiar to the point where people said that he is like Kim Soo-mi's son. There were also rumors that Kim Soo-mi named Shin Hyun-joon's son, and this time, Shin Hyun-joon sobbed so much that he could not speak after hearing the news of Kim Soo-mi's death. In addition, Kim Yong-gun, who has been with the country diary for a long time, was mesmerized by Kim Soo-mi's sad news. I couldn't think of anything, so I said that, and Park Eun-soo, who played the role of Kim Soo-mi's son in the country diary, also mourned like this.

[Anchor]
I think Kim Soo-mi is an actor who felt like a neighbor and my family to many people, but she's known as Jeon Won Il Il Tusk, but she acted through so many works, right?

[Ha Jae-geun]
That's right. First of all, the country diary is the most famous. Since 1980, he has appeared in the country diary for a whopping 22 years, and at the age of 32, he started playing the role of mother and grandmother. That's why Kim Soo-mi was younger than Park Eun-soo, who played the role of Il-il, her son, at that time. Nevertheless, he acted so well that he settled down as a national mother and daily tusks. After that, he was a big hit in the movie industry because of his family's glory and movies, and he played a lot of roles in entertainment, such as Sumi's side dishes, and he has been active in Korean pop culture for decades in dramas, movies, entertainment, and everything.

[Anchor]
For the past 50 years of acting, we've shown you this graphic.Ma was an actor who left a lot of representative works and conveyed laughter and happiness to many people through acting. She was also called godmother in the entertainment industry, but Kim Soo-mi was also very famous for her extraordinary cooking skills. You can say that he was a warm person who took care of his meals to his colleagues and seniors, right?

[Ha Jae-geun]
Kim Soo-mi also hosted a cooking program in the early 1980s. At that time, it seems that Kim Soo-mi had a good sense of cooking since she was so young that she cut herself because she was frustrated rather than a cooking expert. After that, he brought food and started serving the staff and actors on the day of shooting from the rural diary, but after that, he kept bringing food to many people, giving them food or giving them gifts. Kim Soo-mi has eight kimchi refrigerators and eight large refrigerators at her house, and she makes 200 heads of kimchi when she makes kimchi. I used to say that, but since I've lived by giving a lot of money to many people, many juniors respected Kim Soo-mi more. That's why more people are saddened by the news of Kim Soo-mi's death. [Anchor] I remember Kim Su-mi saying that it was a great happiness to take care of the meals of people around her. He was a very warm senior to his fellow seniors and juniors, and finally, please point out this part about Kim Soo-mi and what kind of actor she will be remembered by the public.

[Ha Jae-geun]
Kim Soo-mi was one of Korea's representative mothers, and in the past, Kim Hye-ja and Kim Soo-mi were representative mother characters, although their personalities were different. Kim Hye-ja said she was really sorry for Kim Soo-mi and said that if she were born abroad, not in Korea, she would have been more recognized as an actress. In the past, Korean dramas and movies only had melodrama and family dramas, so the roles that a personality-based actor like Kim Soo-mi could play were too limited. Even in such a poor situation, Kim Soo-mi would have become a model for many juniors because she formed her own family with only one acting, and if Kim Soo-mi had been an actor at a time when genres are being made these days, she could have become a world-class actor.

[Anchor]
Kim Soo-mi, the godmother of the entertainment industry who left smiles and happiness to the entire nation. I pray for the repose of the deceased. This has been Ha Jae-geun, a cultural critic. Thank you.
