Jisoo had previously mentioned the incident in a live broadcast, explaining that she was roller-skating down a slope when she fell and hit her head hard enough that she couldn’t speak for a while. The anecdote, while shared lightheartedly, sparked concern and criticism online—with some netizens painting her sister as negligent.
However, Ji-yoon offered a heartfelt explanation: “Jisoo was very young and scared to go down the hill. She asked me to help her, so I gently pushed her. Unfortunately, she fell and was so shocked she couldn’t talk. I panicked and thought, ‘What’s her favorite thing? Ice cream!’ I ran to get it, gave it to her, and she finally spoke again.”
Kim Ji-yoon emphasized that the story has often been misunderstood or dramatized: “She made it sound like I almost gave her a concussion. I’m not a celebrity, so I never had a platform to explain. Honestly, it felt really unfair.”
Beyond the incident, the episode also highlighted Ji-yoon’s own past as the so-called “Han Hyo-joo of Gunpo”, due to her resemblance to the actress. She revealed that she had received numerous casting offers in high school but ultimately chose to pursue academics, following her father’s advice.
This candid interview gave fans a closer look at Jisoo’s personal life and her relationship with her sister—reminding many that behind every K-pop superstar is a family with stories, laughter, and the occasional misunderstood mishap.
