In a heartfelt interview on the March 15 episode of KBS2's 'Mr. House Husband 2', Song Baek Kyung, the former member of the iconic hip-hop group 1TYM, shared a candid glimpse into his life after stepping away from the spotlight.

Transitioning from a vibrant music career to parenthood, Baek Kyung has embraced his role as a father of two since marrying in 2016 and welcoming his first child in 2017.

Reflecting on his experiences, he remarked, "I've been running nonstop since then," acknowledging the challenges and joys of raising a family.

His appearance on the show left fellow cast member Eun Ji Won stunned, as he expressed disbelief at Baek Kyung’s transformation into a devoted dad, stating, “It feels like a kid raising kids. I always saw you as youthful, and I had no idea you had two children!”

Interestingly, Baek Kyung revealed that he has largely shied away from media exposure, feeling that his days as a celebrity were behind him.

In an effort to maintain a low profile, he shared, “I never told my kids about my past as a singer. I’ve always asked them not to bring it up because that’s not who I am anymore.”

After leaving the music industry, he turned to a new career as a voice actor at KBS, where he dedicated two years to honing his skills.

This pivot came after he suddenly found himself in the role of both husband and father, seeking stability while utilizing his vocal talents.

Baek Kyung mentioned, “I enrolled in a night school program and trained to become a broadcast voice actor,” and has since lent his voice to various advertisements, including popular burger and banking commercials.

His decision to join 'Mr. House Husband 2' was inspired largely by his children.

He explained, "Now that they’re learning how to read, they search my name and find my old performances. They ask, 'Why aren’t you on TV anymore?' and I didn’t have a good answer.

I wanted to show them that I’m still working hard in a different way.”

On the subject of his former bandmates from 1TYM, Baek Kyung provided insights into their lives post-group.

He revealed that Danny is now a father of two living in the US, while Oh Jin Hwan has established a café in Jeju Island.

As for Teddy, Baek Kyung noted, “He and I have taken completely different paths. I last saw him at my wedding, and suddenly reaching out now feels unnecessary.”

Now juggling the dual roles of voice actor and restaurant owner, Song Baek Kyung is committed to cherishing his family and forging a new career path outside the entertainment realm.

As he continues to adapt to life beyond the limelight, his story serves as a testament to personal growth and the pursuit of happiness in unexpected ways.
