Actress Kong Seung-yeon shed tears after TWICE's Jung-yeon made a heartfelt confession.

In the episode of tvN's variety program 'You Quiz on the Block' broadcast on the 20th, Kong Seung-yeon, who is enjoying her prime after 15 years since her debut, appeared and shared anecdotes about her three sisters.

On this day, Kong Seung-yeon, the eldest of the three sisters, recalled the difficult time when the youngest, Jung-yeon, was struggling with 'Cushing's syndrome'. She said, "Jung-yeon was going through such a hard time that I was too anxious to leave her alone. When we were staying at accommodations, I would either go to her lodging or call her to my house. I wanted to keep her by my side at all times. I was scared that she might suddenly disappear, that I might lose her completely." Cushing's syndrome is a rare disease that causes swelling throughout the body due to problems with the hormone and immune systems.

She added, "I didn't know what kind of pain she was enduring, so I tried scolding her, comforting her, and crying with her, but I realized that just being there was the best I could do. At that time, there was nothing else I could do but stay by her side."

In the following video, Jung-yeon expressed her gratitude toward her older sister who had gone to such lengths for her. She said, "I started exercising with my older sister for the first time. I'm a homebody who dislikes being active, but because of her, I started playing tennis and even boxing. Thanks to my older sister, I received treatment and became healthier, so I am grateful."

She continued, "I am grateful that my older sister is my biological sister. She has helped me more than I realize, and I feel so sorry for making her go through such hardships. Since we were trainees together for a long time, there were many ups and downs, but I am so grateful that we are both on the right path now."

Watching this, Kong Seung-yeon said, "Thank you for overcoming the health challenges so well. I told you to be my older sister in your next life, but I want to be born as your younger sister in my next life. Let's be the best friends from now on," as she wiped away tears.
