Shim Kwon-ho, a former wrestling national team member, completed the surgery after confessing to liver cancer.
Wrestling legend Shim Kwon-ho confessed liver cancer on TV CHOSUN's "Joseon's Lover," which aired on the 2nd.
Concerned about Shim Kwon-ho's health, the production team of "Joseon's Lover" visited the hospital to conduct an examination, and the doctor recommended a CT scan, saying he could see a lump. However, Shim Kwon-ho strongly rejected this, and a few days later, he called the production team and acquaintances and confessed that he knew liver cancer.
Shim Kwon-ho said, "I was a little afraid. This would have been feared by anyone in my position. I don't like it being known, and to be honest, I'm still running well without any problems, but I also thought, "What's wrong with me?" There is no one to confide in. If you have a lover, you will tell your concerns, but I don't think it's something you can tell your parents about."
He continued, "I was afraid that if I started treating liver cancer, the eyes of those around me would gather. I just wanted to run away. I hate this situation itself. I've been working out fine so far, but I don't like to stop because of liver cancer. Even so, all the rumors were spread out, and I didn't like it," he said, adding, "I tried not to test from the beginning. Because I knew my condition. It's not an escape from reality, I just want it to disappear. I wish I could go somewhere else alone," he said with tears.
He thanked Shim Hyun-seop, Kim Yoon-kyung, and Lim Jae-wook for visiting the house. Shim Kwon-ho said, "What I felt this time was honestly very lonely. But I'm really grateful to have people next to me. Now, liver cancer treatment is a promise that must be kept," he said, adding that he decided to receive cancer treatment.
He said, "It's going to be better now. After the 1996 Olympics, everyone said no to me, but I ended up doing it. I'll try to catch it again this time. Now we're going into combat mode. Do I have to fight cancer now?" he said, smiling and determined.
Shim Kwon-ho took the operating table, saying, "I've always won," and he said in an interview, "I've been holding it well." Thanks to a lot of support, good results came out. He said, "I'll be healthy and show good performance in front of you."
