A husband's story of continuing his daily life without rest by wearing a prosthetic leg for his family even after losing his left leg in a traffic accident brings tears to the heart.

The episode of KBS 1TV 'Family of Love' airing on the 19th will share the story of Gil Young-yeong, who had his leg amputated due to an accident.

In Ulsan Metropolitan City, Mr. Gil Young-yeong lives with his precious wife and two daughters. He is a versatile man who raises children, cares for his in-laws, and exercises while wearing a prosthetic leg.

Mr. Gil and his wife became parents to two children early in their 20s. However, two years ago, Mr. Gil, who was working as a delivery driver, had his left knee amputated below the knee due to a traffic accident, bringing a crisis to the family.

Seeing his wife struggling to care for her surgically treated husband and their two young daughters while also making a living, Mr. Gil, as the head of the household, was discharged after four months of amputation and devoted himself to rehabilitation by wearing a prosthetic leg to protect his family.

Fortunately, he is currently strengthening his physical fitness through wheelchair basketball and boxing while working from home at his former delivery company. The reason Mr. Gil exercises diligently after becoming a person with a physical disability is to build up his strength so that he can better care for his wife and two daughters who had suffered due to him.

However, just as the husband, Mr. Gil Young-yeong, barely returned to daily life, his wife, Ms. Hye-jeong, underwent surgery six months ago due to a pituitary adenoma. Mr. Gil is always sorry, wondering if his wife's brain condition was caused by the extreme stress she experienced during his traffic accident and leg amputation surgery. Therefore, to help his wife who is recovering from brain surgery, Mr. Gil comes out alone early every morning to prepare for the opening of his wife's cup rice shop.

After dropping off their two daughters at school, he picks up his wife's medicine when she arrives late for work and handles table service, cooking, and dishwashing at the shop. Not only that, but he also exercises to maintain daily life, picks up the two daughters, and takes full responsibility for childcare at home. He is a 'multi-man' who finds even 24 hours in a day insufficient. Mr. Gil Young-yeong, who feels deeply regretful about the times he could not spend with his family due to hospitalization and lives today more diligently than ever, meets the story of a family-oriented man whose only reason for living is his beloved wife and two daughters.
