"Spice actor" Im Hyun-sik, who brought laughter to the entire nation, conveyed a solemn update that he is calmly putting his life in order as he enters his eighties.
On the 19th, MBN 'Special Scoop' showed scenes of Im Hyun-sik looking back on his life and putting it in order.
In that episode, Im Hyun-sik pushed through a snow-covered road to visit the memorial hall of the late Lee Soon-jae. Three months earlier, unable to bring himself to enter the funeral hall for fear of breaking into uncontrollable sobs, he finally realized the separation only in front of the cold headstone.
After placing flowers at the memorial hall and staring for a long time, Im Hyun-sik said, "The living are mortal, but when I see colleagues who shared the stage with me, like Kim Su-mi, leaving so helplessly, it really doesn't feel like someone else's matter." Through this, one could feel the deep loneliness of someone left behind after seeing off seniors and peers who shaped the same era.
Back home, Im Hyun-sik began sorting through the numerous scripts that were like medals of his life. Stepping into the yard to burn the records that had been like his other self, he suddenly stopped. He revealed the reason he could not burn them by asking himself, "If I'm gone, what will my daughters think as they burn this?"
Im Hyun-sik recently began photographing his daughters' faces with a newly purchased camera. Burying the longing for his wife, who left earlier, in his heart, he has now collected "pieces of memory" for those who will be left behind after he is gone.
While spending a long time recording his records with the camera, Im Hyun-sik smiled bitterly, saying, "I want to photograph my heart too, but I can't express it."
