Recalling the kidney transplant of actor Nam Yoon-soo's father on the show 'New Release, Restaurant.'
A heartwarming story about actor Nam Yoon-soo was shared during the broadcast of KBS2TV's 'New Release, Restaurant' on the 25th.
On that day, Nam Yoon-soo said, "A precious person is coming, many men want to be invited," revealing Nam Yoon-soo's men (?), particularly mentioning the arrival of a friend referred to as "ex-boyfriend." That person was actor Jin Ho-eun. He was mentioned as a painful first love and final love in a drama.
In 'The Law of Love in a Big City,' the two played a same-sex couple. Jin Ho-eun said, "I found it easier to act because the other person was my brother Yoon-soo. I realized he was a more wonderful person while acting." He then surprised Nam Yoon-soo by saying, "Hyung (brother), you missed me, right?" Nam Yoon-soo also replied, "I really missed you," causing laughter.
Nam Yoon-soo particularly mentioned, "Hyun-woo came to see me before the kidney surgery." Previously, Nam Yoon-soo garnered attention for the news of his organ donation, being appointed as an ambassador for life sharing, and he attracted media attention by donating his kidney to his ailing father. At the time, he expressed on social media, "I feel happy to have given my father good days. I will become someone who can boldly extend a hand in front of things that are frightening and hesitant. I sincerely support those patients who are waiting for transplantation," he said. Due to the kidney donation, he had paused his activities in the first half of the year. Hence, when he returned to work, he received even more support.
Hyun-woo, who saw Yoon-soo facing a major surgery, said, "Yoon-soo lost 10 kilograms, and I wanted to be a source of strength for him." He added, "The day before the surgery, Yoon-soo was just as bright as usual and had strong mental resilience. He didn't waver emotionally and is a dependable younger brother," complimenting him. Nam Yoon-soo then remarked, "It would be over as soon as I woke up (from the surgery)." Consequently, the colleagues praised him, saying, "Yoon-soo, who didn't show signs of weakness and maintained a positive mindset, is truly a gem."
