Yoon is the wife of Uhm Tae-woong and Ji-on's mother. However, before she met her husband, she was known as the ballerina with the prettiest body line and was a promising dancer for the National Ballet Company. She was also the first Korean to enter the Monaco Monte Carlo Ballet School.

Unexpected injuries, marriage and childbirth delayed her comeback but now she's back for the first time in 3 years with the NBC's end-of-year routine. Yoon looks back on the past 3 years and says, "My life as a woman was happy, but after giving birth I became depressed thinking my dancing life was over".

"I also starved myself to obtain the weight I had before. Some parts of my body didn't return to the way they used to be". She struggled to become the body that she was before she gave birth and it took her a while to return on stage.

Yoon Hye-jin has a hard time when leaving the house because of the child who doesn't want to let her go, but in the world of ballerinas where they only last so much, she wants to show everyone that a mother can still be a ballerina.

Yoon Hye-jin will be on "Culture Club" this week.
