Kim Jung-nan made an unexpected confession on 'Radio Star'.

On MBC's 'Radio Star' broadcast on the 30th, Kim Jung-nan recalled the time by saying, "I had surgery because I was in the early stages of thyroid cancer. There were many bad things that happened to me last year. My father passed away, and my three Goyang dogs died one after another. Because I wasn't feeling well, I collapsed. Depressing events poured down like a tsunami."

She then added, "My older sister insisted I not go to the hospital alone and accompanied me. I felt I should be even better to her. She came on the day of my surgery too. It made me feel that I hadn't lived this life wrongly," expressing her gratitude to Park Mi-sun, her close friend who had previously battled breast cancer.

Born in 1971, Kim Jung-nan turned 55 this year but remains unmarried. She said, "Fans have gifted me wedding dish sets as birthday presents every year for 20 years, urging me to get married. I'm sorry I couldn't fulfill their wishes to that extent. I am using them well on my own," thanking her fans.

She then revealed her ideal type by stating, "I haven't closed my heart to marriage. You can't know what's even an inch ahead in life. I haven't filmed anything yet. When I was young, it was right to be attracted to tall and handsome people, but now that I'm older, I look at whether 'that person is affectionate.' It would be good if they were someone who would take care of my Goyang dogs with me."

In particular, Kim Jung-nan drew attention when asked, "Were you in a clingy relationship with a healthy younger man?" by saying, "I filmed a video parodying 'Trap of Youth' with Lee Sun-min. I found the faces from that analog era endearing. The reaction from young people was also very good," adding, "I didn't know any fake kissing techniques at all, so they taught me."

This is the first time Kim Jung-nan has confessed to having thyroid cancer surgery. Given that she had consistently been active in acting, her confession about battling illness was unexpected. Her voice was noticeably calmer and lower, perhaps due to the surgery, but fortunately, news of her recovering health has poured in support from fans.
