Actor Kim Woo Bin shared his emotional journey through nasopharyngeal cancer on the September 16 episode of “Jjanhan Hyung Shin Dong-yeop.”
Host Shin Dong-yeop recalled Kim Woo Bin’s struggle, saying, “He usually hides his pain, so it was a shock when it came to light. I understand the difficulty of cancer treatment because I saw my mother go through it.”
Kim Woo Bin responded, “I’m usually a positive person and try to see the good in situations. When the doctors told me I had a ‘short period of six months’ to deal with, I was very scared and shocked.”
He continued, “I wished it was just a bad dream, but even then, I didn’t think, ‘What if I can’t get through this?’ I saw it as an opportunity. I initially struggled, but during treatment, I shifted my mindset. After ten years of nonstop work, I thought it was a chance to reflect and spend time with my family.”
Kim Woo Bin added, “Going through treatment is tough, but I felt the power of the support and prayers from many people who know me. The doctors said my progress was ‘amazing,’ and I believe this support helped my recovery.”
He also mentioned, “I want to pass on the prayers I received. Before bed, I pray for miracles in other homes. I keep this mission close to my heart.” He concluded, “I’m expressing more to my parents now, but it’s still nerve-wracking even though they are the closest to me.”
