Full text of Oh Cho-hee’s message:

At forty, I want to ask—
Can I... become a mother, too?

Last year, an unexpected child came to me.

But before I could hold onto that happiness for long, at seven weeks, I received the cruel diagnosis of a 'miscarriage'.

On my wedding day, I held my breath, worried that my white dress would be stained with blood. Without time to recover, both physically and emotionally, I couldn't even go on my honeymoon, and time just passed by.

After tests, I was told that natural conception would be difficult due to thyroid problems and other factors. Still, I couldn't give up. I continued treatment, exercised, and prayed with all my heart that I would never experience the same pain again.

Most of all, to protect myself, I stayed busy with good people, laughing and talking so there was no room for tears. It was easier to tire my body than to let my heart break.

And now, at forty, when I see children on the street, they're so beautiful and lovely that I tear up just looking at them. Sometimes I feel envious, even jealous.

I've lived harder than anyone, tried everything I wanted, and my only wish was to become a mother early... Why is my embrace still empty?

Can I... become a mother, too?

Please pray for me.
