'Chang-gu Can't Be Stopped' voice actress So-yeon, who took over the role of Bong Mi-seon (Chang-gu's mom), expressed her condolences to the late Kang Hee-seon.

Recently, on her social media, So-yeon wrote, "Senior, may you rest peacefully in a place free from pain," adding, "I will remember and follow your passion and conviction for the rest of my life."

The late Kang Hee-seon passed away early on the 4th after battling cancer. She was 65 years old.

After being diagnosed with colon cancer in 2021, she continued to show her passion by participating in dubbing for 'Chang-gu Can't Be Stopped' despite undergoing dozens of chemotherapy sessions. Although she later recovered her health, news emerged last August that the voice actresses for Bong Mi-seon and Maeng-gu had been replaced.

'Chang-gu's Mom' Bong Mi-seon was recast with So-yeon, while Maeng-gu was recast with Jung Yu-jung. At the time, Tooniverse stated, "Due to Senior Voice Actress Kang Hee-seon's personal circumstances," and added, "We kindly ask for your continued interest in the new Chang-gu Mom and Maeng-gu."

Meanwhile, the late actress was born in February 1960. She joined the TBC Voice Actors Guild as a 10th cohort member in 1979 and has remained active since then.
