Her published works include "Living Together, Crying and Laughing," "People Son Sook Met," "Women's Notebook," and "The Island Village Boy, Former President Kim Dae-jung."

Memories still vividly remain of studying with a makeshift chalkboard placed on a pine tree by the riverside or on a stone in the field.

The arrival of American military trucks carrying relief supplies such as powdered milk and school materials in the midst of the war and poverty-stricken environment brought immense joy.

[2] Looking back, she considers her elementary school years spent in the countryside as a significant blessing, despite the harshness of the cold and hunger they experienced at that time.

When the Son family arrived in Seoul, they lived in Donam-dong, where they initially struggled to adapt to being treated as rural children.

She received several awards in writing competitions and even organized literary events called "Night of Literature" with students from nearby high schools, such as Hwang Seok-young and Jo Hae-il.

She had a strong passion for becoming a writer, as evidenced by her multiple attempts to participate in the annual "New Spring Literary" competition hosted by a newspaper company.

[2] During her final year of high school, Son had a fateful encounter with Eugene O'Neill's play "Long Day's Journey Into Night" at Namsan Drama Center in Seoul.

Directed by Teacher Haehyang and featuring renowned actors of that era like Hwang Jung-soon, Jang Min-ho, and Yeo Woon-gye, the performance deeply captivated her.

The male lead was portrayed by Kim Sung-ok, who was not only her senior in the university's drama club but also went on to become the artistic director of the Mokpo Municipal Theater.

[5] She formed a lasting relationship with director Lim Young-woong, whom she regarded as a lifelong mentor, during her time at the Sanullim Theater, which was founded in 1969.

The stories she read resonated with listeners across the country, addressing issues such as marital conflicts, financial struggles, and personal hardships.

However, after assuming the position of Minister of the Environment, concerns arose due to the significant amount of money provided by the corporate representative organization.

In this emotionally charged moment, corporate individuals who joined them on stage unknowingly contributed the funds as a form of encouragement.

Subsequently, Son Sook resigned from her ministerial role and faced a deep sense of injustice, enduring sleepless nights filled with tears for a period of ten days.

Son appeared in the play "That Woman," directed by Lim Young-woong, which premiered at the Sanullim Small Theater in Seoul at 3 pm on the 16th.

[14][15] In 2007, after 15 years, Son and Park Jeong-ja, who had previously worked together in a production back in 1992, reunited for the play Agnes of God.

Since its South Korean initial debut in 1983, play Agnes of God has enjoyed immense popularity, consistently selling out every performance.

[1] 'Son Sook Kim Seung Hyun's Letter Show' was attracting attention by hosting 'Radio Beautiful Shop' that helps neighbors in need through auctions of stars' cherished items.

[25] In December 2022, Son's husband, Kim Sung-ok, who was the CEO of the theater company Shinhyup at the time, died at the age of 87.
