On March 31, a new video titled “Friendship? Love? Parenting? Life Advice Available” was uploaded on Tablo’s YouTube channel. In the video, he spent time listening to subscribers’ concerns and offering thoughtful advice on life and relationships.
One subscriber shared that she was in a serious relationship with her British boyfriend and was thinking about marriage and children as she entered her 30s. She asked how to raise a bilingual child like Haru. Another viewer expressed curiosity about Tablo’s close relationship with his daughter, noting how they seem more like best friends than just father and child.
Responding to the questions, Tablo began by addressing language education. He explained that if one parent speaks English fluently and the other Korean, becoming bilingual is not difficult for a child. However, he emphasized the importance of maintaining balance between the two languages.
He revealed that his wife consistently speaks Korean to Haru, while he communicates with her only in English. He recalled a past moment from the show “The Return of Superman”, when Haru told him not to speak English because she couldn’t understand it at the time.
Tablo admitted that they started language education relatively late. “I waited until Haru opened her heart,” he said, adding that once she became comfortable, her language skills improved rapidly just like many children. He advised that parents should naturally divide roles and consistently communicate with their child in each language.
The artist also spoke about his relationship with Haru. “We’re not just like friends we are friends,” he said. “I just happen to be her dad. She truly sees me as a friend.”
He shared that Haru sometimes prefers spending time with him over playing with her peers. “On weekends, she tells me it’s more fun to hang out with dad,” he added, expressing deep affection for his daughter.
Tablo concluded by reflecting on fatherhood. “I never imagined I would become a father. But once I did, I instinctively understood when Haru needed me,” he said, highlighting the emotional connection they share.
