Jihyo's mother was surprised after seeing her baby, saying:
"And when I saw you (again), your face had changed so much. All the swelling is gone, that, and they shaved your head only here, I was so shocked so I cried again. But the nurse told me that in her more than 10 years of experience working in the hospital, you were the prettiest baby she's ever seen."
With her sudden change, her mom revealed she initially thought her baby was switched with someone else's child!
"Totally. At first, I thought you weren't my baby. It's crazy, right?"
"We really wondered whether our baby got switched or not."
Such an unserious family!
