Singer Isabela revealed her husband, a study-abroad architect, who is suffering from severe dementia.

On the 1st, Isabela, who is undergoing treatment after being diagnosed with stage 4 rectal cancer, appeared as a guest on TV Chosun's 'Perfect Life'.

That day, Isabela stated regarding her health condition: "I was diagnosed with stage 4 rectal cancer in 2022 and underwent surgery. Since then, I have received 12 rounds of chemotherapy and 30 sessions of radiation therapy. However, in January 2025, the cancer metastasized to my lungs, so I had my lung removed and underwent 12 rounds of systemic chemotherapy."

Isabela cited her husband as the reason she must sing. Her husband has currently been diagnosed with severe dementia.

She said, "My husband's business went bankrupt 15 years ago. He stopped speaking due to extreme stress and depression. His speech became blocked."

She continued, "My husband would take a long time before speaking simple words like 'refrigerator' or 'cellphone.' I found it strange and suggested, 'Let's go to a psychiatrist, let's get a dementia test,' but he glared and got angry."

Isabela revealed, "Six years ago, we took a bus together. Until yesterday, he could use the bus card without issue, but suddenly he couldn't tap it. I was shocked. When we went to the hospital, they said his hippocampus had shrunk too much, so it was too late. He was diagnosed with severe dementia." Her disclosure evoked sympathy.

Afterward, Isabela went to meet her husband. Seeing this, Lee Sung-mi said, "Your husband is really handsome. I can't believe he has dementia." Isabela then confessed, "My husband is a study-abroad architect. It breaks my heart to see such a smart person deteriorate because of dementia."
