220 parents and caregivers of young children invited to Oct. 17 event at Bon Academy Hall
Popular comedians Kim Young-hee and Jeong Beom-gyun to headline a fun, healing 80-minute show
Yeongdeungpo-gu will host a parenting talk show titled "Grandma Malja Will Hear It All" on Oct. 17 at 11 a.m. at Bon Academy Hall (165 Seonyu-ro, first floor of YP Center), offering parents and caregivers of young children a chance to share their everyday parenting worries.
The event is designed to help parents lighten the stress and anxieties that come with raising young children, offering warm comfort and positive energy through humor and open conversation.
The show will feature comedian Kim Young-hee — beloved for her popular character "Malja Halmae, the Queen of Communication" — alongside fellow comedian Jeong Beom-gyun. Over 80 minutes, the two will take parenting questions directly from the audience, building a sense of shared experience through lively banter and heartfelt exchanges.
The event is open to 220 parents and caregivers of preschool-age children in Yeongdeungpo-gu. As the program is designed exclusively for adults, children may not accompany attendees.
Interested parents and caregivers can register through the Yeongdeungpo-gu Comprehensive Childcare Support Center website or by scanning the QR code on promotional materials. Registration opens Thursday at 10 a.m. on a first-come, first-served basis. For further details, contact the Yeongdeungpo-gu Comprehensive Childcare Support Center directly.
Yeongdeungpo-gu District Mayor Jo Yu-jin said parenting brings great joy but can also weigh heavily on parents at times. "I hope this talk show gives parents a chance to set down the burdens of child-rearing for a moment, laugh freely, and leave with comfort and positive energy," she said.
