At a recent fan meeting of Choi Jin Hyuk in Jakarta, there was a touching moment when his mother revealed that before his son became an actor, he had experienced a heartbreaking incident regarding a scam that left such a deep mark that his dream was almost broken.

As a part of Miuseu Sae promotion, Choi Jin Hyuk drew fans during his charm and performing event. But it was his mother's touching admission that really took the cake.

According to Xports News, Choi's mother, appearing nervous about her son being so close to dedicated fans, talked about being there for him while he pursued his dreams.

She recounted that she sold the family house to make sure he was able to go to Seoul because she believed he was going to make it big as an artist.

"It made me cry to know that someone, a higher-up — a person with lots of money in the bank — duped me into selling my house and using my son's dream as bait.

We had to go through a lot,a but seeing him on stage now makes everything worthwhile."

The moment left many in the audience wiping away tears, with Choi Jin Hyuk comforting his own mother. He expressed gratitude for her unwavering support, noting the struggles they had before he became famous.

However, things took a surprisingly entertaining turn when Choi miscalculated the cost of seafood at a restaurant, shocking both his mother and fans.

The incident, part of the emotional backdrop, showed the star's relatable persona.

Choi Jin Hyuk, who is set to appear on Sunday, December 29, on SBS's "My Little Old Boy" at 9:05 PM, will reveal some heartwarming times he spent with his mother.
