Actress Jeon Won-ju revealed the reason she wrote a will.

Jeon Won-ju appeared on TV Chosun's "Perfect Life," which aired on the 29th.

On that day, Jeon Won-ju met fellow actress Seo Woo-rim and said, "Even though we are chatting so happily now, we don't know when we will leave. I want to leave a good will for the next generation."

Jeon Won-ju shared, "I had a health checkup and was diagnosed with dementia. It didn't feel real. I was diagnosed with early-stage dementia a year ago," and even showed the will she had prepared in advance.

She also confessed her difficult feelings, saying, "I am worried about myself, but I am also worried about becoming a big burden to my children and acquaintances."

Afterward, Jeon Won-ju underwent more thorough examinations. Regarding Jeon Won-ju's test results, a specialist explained, "Compared to a normal brain, the ventricles are enlarged with fluid. The folds of the cortex around them have become deeper and more numerous. This indicates that brain atrophy has begun. Considering the test results and daily life, it can be classified as mild cognitive impairment."

Regarding mild cognitive impairment, which is a pre-dementia stage, the specialist emphasized, "There is no major disruption to daily life. It is more important to focus on the future to prevent dementia."

After receiving the test result indicating a pre-dementia stage, Jeon Won-ju resolved, "I will manage my health even more diligently from now on."
