On that day, he posted on his Instagram, "Everything collapsed three years after my lung cancer surgery," adding, "Eight new tumors were discovered, and they have metastasized to the brain. It seems there is nothing worse that can happen now." He further expressed his difficult state of mind, saying, "What am I supposed to do? It seems they keep telling me to die."

After the post was made public, speculation arose online not only about The Korea Economic Daily (Hankyung)ho's own health issues but also that a family member was undergoing cancer treatment.
