Singer Isabella has shared her recent update.

On the 1st, the 8th p.m. broadcast of TV Chosun's 'Perfect Life' will feature Isabella, who is battling cancer for the second time, revealing her poignant daily life with her husband, who is losing his memory.

On this day, Isabella confessed, "I was diagnosed with stage 4 rectal cancer in 2022 and underwent 12 rounds of chemotherapy and 30 sessions of radiation therapy. In 2025, the cancer metastasized to my lungs, and I underwent another 12 rounds of systemic chemotherapy after surgery," shocking everyone with her successive battles against cancer.

In response, comedian Lee Seong-mi asked, "Is your current physical condition okay?" Isabella replied, "My hair fell out during chemotherapy, so I am now wearing a partial wig. My immunity has also weakened, so I get tired easily," conveying that she is still suffering from aftereffects.

She then revealed the reason she cannot give up singing despite her arduous battle with illness. She said, "Six years ago, my beloved husband was diagnosed with severe dementia," and described the reality of having to simultaneously care for him while battling cancer as "feeling like I was trapped alone in a pitch-black tunnel with no exit," deepening the sense of sorrow.

Isabella spends a poignant time at home with her husband, who lives in a nursing home, after a month apart. After finishing a meal, the two lie side by side in one bed, sharing an intimate moment. Hugging each other tightly, they sing Na Hun-a's 'Forever' together, moving the hearts of all who watch.

When actor Shin Seung-hwan asked, "My husband has forgotten everyday words, but why does he remember the lyrics to 'Forever' exactly?" Isabella shed tears and said, "Last year, while I was undergoing chemotherapy, my husband and I sang this song together for the last time before I sent him to the nursing home," and added, "It seems he hasn't forgotten the lyrics because he still remembers that time," leaving everyone in tears.
