SOURCE: “0.1cm도 전이된다는데…” 지예은, 갑상선암 투병…유재석도 놀랐다
Actress Ji Yeeun has opened up about her battle with thyroid cancer for the very first time.
On the episode of Netflix's 'Yoo Jaesuk's Camp' that aired on the 26th, Yoo Jaesuk, Lee Kwangsoo, Byun Wooseok, and Ji Yeeun were shown preparing a barbecue party and a campfire for the guests staying at the camp.
During the episode, Yoo Jaesuk told Ji Yeeun, "Yeeun, you've completely recovered your health now." Ji Yeeun smiled brightly and replied, "Yes, completely."
When Yoo Jaesuk added, "I can't even tell at all anymore," Ji Yeeun responded, "That's right. I'm doing really fine."
Ji Yeeun then cautiously opened up about what happened at the time. She confessed, "I heard that even if it's only 0.1cm big, it can still metastasize," adding, "In my case, they told me I actually had quite a lot of cancer."
Shocked by the unexpected confession, Yoo Jaesuk reacted, "Oh, really?" Ji Yeeun then said, "I'm truly so grateful." Yoo Jaesuk comforted her warmly, saying, "Everything is something to be thankful for."
Notably, Ji Yeeun was also seen tearing up during the campfire scene.
Yoo Jaesuk said, "As you may already know from seeing the news articles, Yeeun was a little sick," adding, "Thankfully, she has recovered her health and was able to join us here today, and I’m very grateful for that."
Last year, Ji Yeeun temporarily paused her entertainment activities, including her appearances on SBS' 'Running Man' due to worsening health issues. At the time, rumors spread that she was suffering from hypothyroidism, but her agency remained cautious, stating that it was 'private medical information.'
It was later revealed that her condition had been serious enough to require surgery, and through this broadcast, it became known that she had been battling thyroid cancer.
