Kim Started Crying A lot
Kim is well known as the mother of popular actress Olivia Munn.
In an interview with Letterman, Olivia talked about her family and mom.
At the beginning, she talked about her show Newsroom where she plays the character who knows everything about contemporary finances.
The interviewer wanted to know if she knew about it in real life too.
Olivia replied that she does have to understand those things so that she could do her dialogs efficiently and also had help when she faced a struggle about something.
She then talked about her family and said that her love for her family is at level two.
She and her family are from Oklahoma, but she barely visits there.
She had a classical Asian family and recalled the day when she visited for Thanksgiving.
She went there all excited to celebrate Thanksgiving with her family, and when she showed up at her house, her mom and aunt shushed her up, telling her that they were busy watching Korean movies.
On the same day, when she was having dinner with her family, she started choking.
She was coughing and was all teared up. Her mom Kim asked for help with her aunt, who happens to be a doctor. But her aunt was enjoying her food and told her that Olivia was just coughing.
That’s the reason why Olivia doesn’t go to meet her family. She also talked about her mom Kim who has started becoming very sentimental.
Since Olivia’s 30th birthday, Kim started crying a lot, thinking if she had been a good mom or not.
Kim has a lot of regret for being a terrible mom, so when she called Olivia on her birthday, she told Olivia that she was crying.
Olivia wanted to tell how horrible Kim had been, but she didn’t want to hurt, so she told Kim that she was the best mother.
Olivia said all the good things to her mom, and after hearing that, Kim told Olivia to raise her kids just the way Kim raised Olivia and her siblings, as she was the best mother.
