Actor Jin Tae-hyun revealed his recovery status after cancer surgery.
On the 3rd, Jin Tae-hyun posted a lengthy message on his SNS, saying, "I am training hard again with great enthusiasm. My body hasn't fully recovered yet, so it's a bit challenging, but I am doing my best and thinking about the best times as I try to recover."
Jin Tae-hyun then said, "I don't think I will be able to achieve my goals this year. I had planned to try for the single, which was my original goal for this year, but perhaps because I had surgery to remove half of my organs, my body is recovering a bit slowly. It's tough and difficult, but I still want to train hard."
He added, "I am very upset that I had to suddenly stop everything due to the surgery when my body was trying to get in the best shape, but as time passes, I am grateful for this as well. I think it was necessary to stop."
Jin Tae-hyun stated, "The reason I have trained my body so diligently by jogging throughout the summer in August is that summer training is necessary to maintain my fitness through winter and into next spring, not just until fall. A citizen marathoner must continue to run all four seasons. If I had met running in my 30s, I might have been able to run better, but I am also thankful I met it in my 40s. I really want to run well in next spring."
Jin Tae-hyun was recently diagnosed with thyroid cancer and is recovering after surgery. After the surgery, he is finding his health through running with his wife, actress Park Si-eun.
Below is the full statement from Jin Tae-hyun.
Hello, this is Jin Tae-hyun. I hope you are well.
I am training hard again with great enthusiasm for marathon training. My body hasn't fully recovered yet, so it's a bit challenging, but I am doing my best and thinking about the best times as I try to recover.
I don't think I will be able to achieve my goals this year. I had planned to try for the single, which was my original goal for this year, but because I had surgery to remove half of my organs, my body is recovering a bit slowly. It's tough and difficult, but I still want to train hard.
I am very upset that I had to suddenly stop everything due to the surgery when my body was trying to get in the best shape, but as time passes, I am grateful for this as well. I think it was necessary to stop.

It's great to have life goals.
But my main job and family always come first. Hobbies are just enjoyable pastimes.
