Actress reveals airplane incident that got her to give up smoking for good

테스트

Veteran actress Kim Su-mi appeared on television yesterday and revealed the reason she quit smoking after having been a smoker for more than 40 years.

“I was on a plane in the first class section and went to the bathroom to smoke in secret,” she told the hosts of SBS’s “Good Morning” yesterday. “A man who was also riding in the first class section told the flight attendant on me. After that, I was so mortified that I had to quit.”

The 60-year-old film and television actress quit smoking nine months ago.

Upon being asked whether she had withdrawal symptoms after quitting, Kim said that it was hard to cut her 40-year-old habit instantly but that she now feels very light in the morning and less tired during the afternoon.

Kim rose to fame during the 1980s when she played the mother in the long-running TV drama “Country Diary.”

김수미 “기내에서 담배 피우다 걸려서…” 폭탄 고백

배우 김수미가 비행기에서 망신 당한 사연을 털어놨다.

김수미는 7일 방송된 SBS '배기완·최영아·조형기의 좋은아침'에 출연해 시청자들에게 금연을 적극적으로 권장했다.

그는 "40년간 피워 온 담배를 끊었다. 9개월 전에 비행기 퍼스트 클래스를 탔는데 화장실에 가서 담배를 몰래 폈다"며 "퍼스트 클래스에는 한 남자가 있었는데 그 사람이 승무원에게 내가 담배 폈다고 말하는 것을 봤다. 그 후로 그 일이 너무 창피해서 담배를 끊었다"고 말했다.

김수미는 금단현상에 대해 "처음엔 힘들었다. 40년을 폈는데 칼처럼 끊는 것은 힘들었다"며 "하지만 현재는 몸이 말할 수 없이 가볍고 오후에 덜 피곤하다"고 설명했다.
