Lee Dong-gook's Son Si-an Nears Middle School, Mother Lee Soo-jin Worries About Boarding School

Lee Soo-jin, wife of former football player Lee Dong-gook, is grappling with the upcoming transition of their son, Si-an, to middle school. The prospect of Si-an, who is soon to be a middle schooler, leaving home for boarding school has stirred considerable anxiety for Lee Soo-jin. She shared her concerns on social media, noting that while she thought such decisions were still far off, Si-an's friends have already made their choices, leaving him as the only one undecided. "Where is the right place to send him? Is this really the best path for the child?" she questioned, expressing that he still seems like a baby who cannot do anything alone. Lee Soo-jin is weighing the decision of sending Si-an to a football team that offers boarding facilities. She pondered whether it is appropriate for him to learn to fix his picky eating habits, manage his own affairs, and learn to live independently through boarding, even at a young age. "Even if it's a good team, do we have to make him leave his mother's embrace at such a young age just because he wants to be a football player?" she asked, highlighting her emotional struggle with his impending departure.
