Jeong Bo-seok revealed the reason why he decided to stop operating the Seongbuk-Dong bakery cafe and let his son become independent.
Actor Jeong Bo-seok revealed the background behind closing the Seongbuk-Dong Bakery Cafe, which he had been operating with his son, through Hwang Jung-eum's YouTube channel. Jeong Bo-seok decided to boldly halt the business and encourage his son to become independent to foster his self-reliance, as his son appeared to be neglecting the shop's management.
Jeong Bo-seok explained that his wife took on most of the cafe's operations, which took a toll on her health. He said he had warned his son several times to fulfill his responsibilities, but his behavior did not improve. Ultimately, he decided to close the shop to encourage his son to forge his own path in life.
Afterward, his son prepared to start his own business and asked Jeong Bo-seok to rent him kitchen equipment. He launched his independent business after promising to pay a portion of his profits as rental fees. Jeong Bo-seok emphasized that the process of children thinking and making decisions on their own is important, and that helping them become independent, rather than providing unconditional support, is the core of education.
