On Sunday the 19th at 9 p.m., SBS' My Little Old Boy will air the moment when Bae Jung-nam says goodbye to his dog Bell, who recently crossed the rainbow bridge.
On the 29th of last month, Bae Jung-nam announced on his personal social media that he had said a final farewell to Bell after an unexpected heart attack. Bell had been diagnosed with total paralysis from an acute disc condition, but after 1 year and 7 months of rehabilitation he showed a miracle. Because Bae Jung-nam and Bell were each other's only family in the world, fellow actors and netizens who learned the news were even more saddened and expressed deep condolences.
On the day Bell died, Bae Jung-nam held Bell, who lay as if asleep, and collapsed, saying, "Jana...get up." As Bae Jung-nam stroked Bell endlessly and sobbed, the Mother Avengers also shed tears. In particular, Huh Kyung-hwan's mother, who revealed she is raising a 15-year-old senior dog, said, "How would Jung-nam's heart be?" and felt deep pain.
Before leaving for the funeral home, Bae Jung-nam visited the rehabilitation center full of memories with Bell one last time. Bae Jung-nam could not speak as he looked at the lawn Bell liked most and the pool where they did rehabilitation together. Then Bae Jung-nam and Bell headed to the funeral home. Unable to control his body and sobbing as he faced having to part forever, Bae Jung-nam decided to give Bell, who crossed the rainbow bridge, one last gift. It is said the studio also fell into great sadness over the gift Bae Jung-nam gave.
The last story of Bae Jung-nam and Bell, who were each other's only family, can be seen on SBS' My Little Old Boy, airing Sunday the 19th at 9 p.m.<
