Go Hyun-jung, fighting an illness for five years… 'Not completely cured' fans are worried about her latest update
Actress Go Hyun-jung raised concerns among fans by revealing her experience of visiting the emergency room while filming and her ongoing battle with illness for the past five years.
On the 26th, she shared her recent situation on the YouTube show 'Salon Drip 2'.
On that day, Go shared her experience of being hospitalized during drama filming and returning to the set after being discharged. She stated, 'I got hospitalized because I was unwell during filming and was sent back to the set immediately after being discharged,' adding, 'The director told me not to say it's okay when I'm in pain and to express everything. Thanks to that, I was able to bring out the best emotions.' Go also recalled, 'There was no one on set who saw my sincerity, but I wanted to do my best even more because of that,' conveying her authenticity as an actress.
Earlier, she spoke honestly about her recently changed daily life and mindset in an interview. Go mentioned, 'After being sick, I realized that kindness and warmth are precious. I discovered I had been afflicted with 'coolness', and I've just now realized that kindness is good for the body.' She also stated that she now calls and checks on her parents more often due to this experience.
However, she candidly revealed that she is not completely cured yet, raising further concerns among fans. Go said, 'The hospital is focusing on intensive care so I can recover quickly. They say I might reduce the medication and stabilize by autumn, but I am not completely healed.' Nevertheless, Go noted that she is taking care of her health with the energy she gains from work. She said, 'I like to rest at home, but I guess I'm someone who gets healthier while working. If I focus too much on myself, my condition worsens. When I'm working, I actually forget about it.' She added that when asked if she enjoys having a drink at home, 'Since I collapsed five years ago, I can't drink,' mentioning her intake is about half a glass of white wine.
At the end of the broadcast, Go Hyun-jung told Jang Doyoun, 'I feel like we've become a bit closer; you have a lot of sincerity, Doyoun, you are a really nice person.' Jang Doyoun replied, 'I feel like we were chatting without cameras today; I also tend not to hide my expressions well, so I get caught easily.' In response, Go explained, 'It's better to get caught; it's better to be genuine than to have no sides at all.' Jang Doyoun also noted, 'I'll just live as I have been.' Go expressed, 'I wasn't sure about Jang Doyoun; I was nervous since it was our first meeting before filming. In fact, I was worried this morning whether I could record today since I was feeling ill; I didn't expect we'd become this close, it was such a great conversation, it was healing.'
Meanwhile, Go Hyun-jung underwent a major surgery last year and has been recovering while continuing her work. Engaging with her fans, she is set to return on September 5 with the SBS Friday-Saturday drama 'The Mantis: Original Sin'.
Fans have been sending their support through social media and online communities, expressing statements like, 'I admire her for continuing her work even while sick,' and 'I hope she takes good care of her health.'
