Update: Ji-hwan’s father, who was battling throat cancer, passed away a few days after this shoot. He was the biggest supporter of Ji-Hwan’s new calling in life and Ji-Hwan will continue to work for single fathers’ rights in Korea. You can support his cause by donating to his crowdfunding page:

It's getting harder and harder to be a parent in Korea, let alone a single parent. People this kind are 1 in a million, can't begin to say how much respect I have for him.

I'm a child of a single mother, and we also lived in poverty. Now everything is fine, over 25 years since those bad times. I can easily donate. I've heard that registering births in Korea was complicated- there was a Korea Herald article about it. Well done to the lawyer for changing it.

You don't understand how much this video warmed my heart. I remember the first video we made when we followed Ji-Hwan and I'm so happy to see things are getting better, Korea does have a long way to go with human rights but I'm glad that Ji-Hwan is pushing us to pay attention to things like this! Thank you Asian Boss and thank you Ji-Hwan.

Props to the father for keeping his head high despite his situation

Ji-Hwan, I'm sorry for your loss. I'll keep you and your family in my prayers. May you find little things that bring you and your family comfort in this hard time.

i can’t omg the way he’s so sensitive to the feelings of his daughter, saying that he wants to make sure she’s not awkward or uncomfortable by being on camera :(

Thanks to you Asian Boss I had the wonderful opportunity to meet Ji Hwan and his daughter. They are so sweet and kind.

The single dad episodes are the ones I have held close to my heart and in my prayers the last few years. I celebrated when I heard the law was changed! Amazing to know so many young peoples and fathers lives will be forever changed. Thank you so much for the update.

This man is an inspiration. His daughter is very fortunate to have such a wonderful father. I wish the best of everything for them. ❤️

I love this super dad and I'm shocked how super tech Korea is so low on ethics!

i would love it if you could regularly check in with ji-hwan. im so happy we got this update. ♡

This man and his story is sooo inspirational. Im glad he is doing better with his beautiful child. God bless you. 💐

The best part about being humbled by the harshness of life is that it makes you a better person. Despite the struggles he fought through, Ji-hwan is exactly the man he needs to be right now.

It’s video’s like this why I subscribed to Asian Boss! 👍👍🏾

Asian boss and Ji-hwan, thank you for everything that you do. Wishing you tons of media attention, support and love. You guys are making such a huge difference, and as a daughter of a single korean father, I can only thank you and feel warmed by your efforts.

I’m usually up at 5 am. Single father of a three daughters. I have difficulties with many household related tasks and keeping up with kids school events. Other than that I think I’m doing pretty good at home and work. I was scared of how to take care of my kids when my wife passed away 4 years ago but you as time went by i learned to cope with many things. Only regret I have is that I should have done more helping out my wife at home.

힘내시요… 따님에게 당신 같은 아버지가 있다니 운이 좋아요. 딸 키우는거 쉬운 일이 안이에요. 진짜 대단하시네요

Asian Boss strikes the right chords of our hearts. Bless Ji-hwan and hope he goes from strength to strength with his endeavour in all he does.
