Lee Sugeun to receive condolences after father's death… "The father-in-law who donated a kidney for his daughter, an even more heartbreaking farewell."
Broadcaster Lee Sugeun decided to accept condolences after much contemplation due to the condolences and requests he received from many.
On the 6th, the agency Big Planet Made stated, "Due to numerous inquiries regarding condolences, we have decided to receive condolences after discussing with the bereaved family," and announced that the deceased's funeral hall has been arranged at Seoul Asan Hospital.
Earlier, Lee Sugeun's father passed away on the 5th due to a chronic illness, at the age of 81. The agency revealed, "The funeral is planned to be held quietly with family and relatives, and we ask for warm comfort and consideration so that Mr. Lee Sugeun and his family can mourn the deceased sufficiently."
The story of Lee Sugeun's wife, Park Jiyeon, is also touching the hearts of many. Park Jiyeon married Lee Sugeun in 2008 and they have two sons. In 2011, during her second pregnancy, her kidney function rapidly deteriorated due to pregnancy-induced hypertension, and she received a kidney transplant from her father. At that time, the recovery was not smooth, and she has been undergoing dialysis treatment ever since.
In this context, Park Jiyeon was recently advised by medical staff to undergo a kidney re-transplant and is preparing for a second surgery to receive a kidney from her biological brother in mid-August, while waiting for a brain-dead donor.
The reason this obituary is particularly heartbreaking is that he was a father who willingly donated his kidney to save his daughter while he was alive. His love for his daughter was extraordinary, and therefore, his passing is deeply saddening for many.
Netizens are leaving warm messages, saying, "A father who donated a kidney to his daughter… How deep must his love have been?", "I hope Park Jiyeon has a healthy surgery," and "I send my heartfelt condolences to Lee Sugeun's family."
Along with the deep mourning for the deceased, feelings of comfort and support continue for the surviving family.
