Who has spoken about postpartum depression?

Singer Trudy said on the YouTube channel 'Geumddong-ine' that she is still receiving treatment for postpartum depression. She said she improved after visiting a hospital, but her symptoms returned when she was busy and stopped taking her medication. According to her, she believes medication is essential and is continuing treatment alongside couples counseling with her husband, Lee Dae-eun.

Model Choi Yeon-su, daughter of chef Choi Hyun-suk, said through her personal social media account that she is receiving both counseling and medication. She said the treatment has helped her manage her emotions and feel more stable, though she still experiences occasional lethargy.

Why are husbands also speaking up?

Comedian Kim Joon-ho said on the program 'Dokbak Tour' that he is concerned his pregnant wife, Kim Ji-min, a former comedian, may develop postpartum depression. Fellow comedians Kim Dae-hee and Hong In-kyu offered encouragement and advice about the husband's role.

What advice have fellow entertainers shared?

Actor Lee Si-eon asked for advice on his YouTube channel in June. Kim Dong-hyun stressed that husbands should share childcare and give their wives time to rest on their own.
