Cool Kim Sung-soo couldn't hide his joy as he reported his daughter's acceptance to college.

Kim Sung-soo, who appeared on YouTube channel 『The Modern Olympics』 on the 14th, said "My long-cherished dream was to raise my daughter well and send her to college", he said, expressing his difficulties and happy feelings of raising his daughter alone.

Kim Seong-soo gave birth to a daughter in 2006 after getting married in 2004, but divorced after six years of marriage. Since then, she has been raising her daughter alone since her ex-wife passed away suddenly in 2012. He said "If I get in trouble, I have to protect one person, but it was hard to balance the two axes alone," he said, expressing his difficulties.




His daughter passed Gyeonggi University and Dankook University through early admission last year and will become a college student this year. Kim Sung-soo said, `I was really happy to hear that my daughter was on the game table. Later, I received a call saying I had been accepted to Dankook University," he said, expressing his overwhelming feelings.

Kim Seong-soo is a daughter who cooks seaweed soup and writes handwritten letters on her birthday, saying, `He is a warm child who thinks of her father.' Even if there was a dinner table, I always went to pick up my child at the end of school."

It also revealed the story of donating the painting to help the victims of the Jeju Air plane crash in December last year, revealing the picture drawn by his daughter. He was proud of his grown-up daughter, saying, `I wish this painting could be donated even for a mere ten thousand won.'
