Baek Jong Won has previously spoken openly about his deep affection and gratitude toward his mother. In a 2022 video on his YouTube channel, he shared, “When I said I wanted to go into business, my grandparents strongly opposed it. My mother was scolded many times because of me. She endured a kind of hardship similar to strict in-law treatment. I am most grateful to my mother, and also deeply sorry to her. She was reprimanded many times by my grandmother because of me.”
