Yoon Young-mi lives in a closet in her son's rented room in New York... "My bedroom is a closet"

Yoon Young-mi revealed her recent situation in New York, USA. She shared on her social account that she is using a wardrobe as a bedroom in a studio apartment where she stays with her son. On the 2nd, Yoon Young-mi posted a photo on her social account with the caption, ″About 5 pyeong? In my son’s 5 million won New York monthly rent room, my bedroom is a wardrobe.″ The photo showed Yoon Young-mi lying down with a blanket spread inside the wardrobe. She said, ″Fortunately, I’m short. Also, I can’t hear the train sounds, and it’s dark and warm...″ Regarding her living conditions in New York, Yoon Young-mi mentioned, ″This spring, when I was worried about expenses while planning to go to New York, my husband said, ’It’s still a long way until this fall, why worry? By then, things will be easier.’ Also, when I was worried about housing in New York, my husband said, ’God will surely prepare a good place. There’s no way He would let the whole family live in such a tiny room, haha~ Maybe God is a bit busy.’″ She added, ″Still, if I use things frugally, it will work out somehow, and having even a tiny studio means I can see my son’s face every day, how great is that? Haha. And in the past, several families lived closely together in small rooms, so it’s nothing.″ Yoon Young-mi is married to a pastor and has two sons, both of whom went to study in New York, USA. She revealed that she spent a total of 2.6 billion won on their studies over more than ten years, explaining that she had to send over 100 million won per year per child, about 20 to 25 million won monthly, while living in a rented room herself. Her husband, a pastor helping North Korean defectors, had almost no income, and Yoon Young-mi said, ″I handled 4 to 5 schedules a day,″ adding, ″I even canceled insurance and did jobs worth 100,000 won without hesitation. I once prayed that I wouldn’t wake up the next morning because of loneliness and pressure.″ The children graduated from university in 2024, and Yoon Young-mi visited New York to attend the graduation ceremony. At that time, she said, ″On the way, I checked my bank account and saw 970,000 won. I told my husband that even though the entire balance was 970,000 won, I was thankful it wasn’t negative. That’s right. The kids safely finished their studies, and we are heading to the U.S. in good health... I am grateful for everything. Of course, it’s not a big deal that I worked hard to support my kids, but it was so hard that I could barely breathe. However, the responsibility for my children seems to have helped me grow and develop.″ Currently, Yoon Young-mi is living in New York with her children. Although she sleeps in the wardrobe space, she said, ″I am truly happy just to see my son’s face.″ She also added, ″I’m here, keeping an eye on my son.″
