When creator Park Wi stood on two feet with the help of a rehabilitation device, his wife Song Ji-eun embraced him in joy. Many people are moved to tears by the sight of the two living in support of each other.
On the 3rd, a video titled 'Park's heartfelt confession as he stood on two feet' was released on Park Wi's YouTube channel, WERACLE. The video captured the small yet profound love shared between Park Wi and his wife, Song Ji-eun.
"Today, we slept in separate rooms for the first time. I went in late because I was worried Ji-eun would wake up," Park Wi said as he began his vlog. As morning arrived, he immediately went to look for his wife in her room. In response, Song Ji-eun said, "I heard the sounds, but I was too sleepy and fell asleep," and added playfully, "Even when we sleep in separate rooms, I won't touch your spot, oppa," creating a sweet atmosphere. The couple enjoyed a leisurely newlywed life by having meals together and lying side by side on the bed.
Then, Park Wi said, "Shall we try to get up today?" and moved to the room with the rehabilitation device. He explained, "The machine has changed, so today is the first time using it. It's hard to do alone, but I managed to learn it," and asked his wife Song Ji-eun with a smile, "How are you going to react?"
Song Ji-eun looked at Park Wi with hopeful eyes and said, "I'm ready," and finally, Park Wi stood on two feet with the help of the machine and faced Song Ji-eun. At that moment, Song Ji-eun smiled brightly and said, "How is it? You look like a person who used to stand. It's not awkward at all," conveying her emotions. Unable to hide her joy, Song Ji-eun embraced the standing Park Wi from behind while teasing him, and Park Wi looked at his wife with warm eyes and said, "You're adorable."
Park Wi continued, "Let's really get up soon. This is fun. I genuinely want to do this," and expressed his heartfelt feelings mixed with tears, saying, "Emotions are rising. I want to do the little things together, like just holding hands and walking together. I feel like I shouldn't say more. I will really get up."
Previously, Park Wi shared a photo of himself standing on two legs before the accident, and he also revealed an inspiring message he posted on social media. He shared a photo taken in Cornwall, England, in 2014, stating, "Lately, I often hear that I walked on two feet in my dreams. It's always nice to hear. If I can truly stand up, I want to go back to Cornwall with Ji-eun. I want to see the starry night sky together."
Once the video and story were released, numerous internet users supported the couple with touching comments. "I can feel the love in Ji-eun's expression,"
"It seems that true miracles start from this kind of belief in each other," and "You are already standing under the starlight. That dream will surely come true,"
encouragement continued to pour in.
Park Wi, who was diagnosed with paralysis after an accident in 2014, has tirelessly focused on rehabilitation for a long time without giving up. By sharing his journey through YouTube, he has brought hope and courage to many. In 2023, he received another wave of support by marrying Song Ji-eun, a singer from the girl group SECRET. Overcoming crises with sincerity and mutual care, Park Wi and Song Ji-eun's steps towards 'the day we walk together' are a source of strength for someone today.
