Basketball legend Hyun Joo-yup revealed a shocking recent situation after allegations of negligence at work and overuse of power.
Hyun Joo-yup, who served as a basketball commentator and coach after retiring as a Korean basketball legend, shared his recent status on TV CHOSUN's "Dad and Me Season 3," which aired on the 14th.
Hyun Joo-yeop's son Jun-hee said, "I had a hard time going to school, so I took a leave of absence in the first year of high school after consulting with my parents." The decisive moment was the controversy over Hyun Joo-yeop's power trip. He said, "After that, the troublemakers came and said bad things, and many bad things around them. I quit basketball and took a leave of absence," he said.
Hyun Joo-yeop is also taking psychiatric prescription drugs for about a year and a half after the incident. He said, "If you don't take medicine, you will have sleep problems and even anxiety symptoms. "I think I take about 6 pills in the morning because I can't sleep, and I take about 14 to 15 pills in the evening," he said.
Even Jun-hee was taking psychiatric medicine, and Hyun Joo-yeop shocked me by saying, "The whole family is taking medicine now." Jun-hee said, "I take 1 pill as a stabilizer in the morning and 5 pills including sleeping pills in the evening. After my father's incident, I started taking medicine while receiving psychiatric treatment, and I was hospitalized around that time," he said.
He continued, "I had insomnia, difficulty breathing, and even nightmares. I even had a really bad idea. It's been about three months since I was discharged from the hospital," he confessed, expressing regret.
Hyun Joo-yup said, "I had talent when my son, who had a dream of playing basketball, quit. I used to run well, but I think I lost my muscles because I've been lying down for six months," he said.
