Broadcaster Seo Jeong-hee revealed that she has been suffering from symptoms of autonomic nervous system dysfunction for 50 years.

On the 7th, Seo Jeong-hee posted on her personal account, "It took 50 years to know my name," and explained that she had not been able to identify the cause of her frequent fainting spells until now.

Seo Jeong-hee said, "I collapsed frequently during middle school. At that time, I suffered from severe anemia and often fainted on my way to school." She added, "After growing up, I no longer had anemia, but I would faint once or twice a year, sometimes even more times, for no apparent reason."

She continued, "One day, I collapsed while taking a half-bath and even broke a tooth. I thought it lasted more than five minutes and left me dizzy." She explained, "I would wake up from sleep, walk a few steps, then experience vomiting and pour out sweat like heavy rain before collapsing right there, repeating this cycle."

Seo Jeong-hee stated, "This happened repeatedly for 50 years. The hospital just told me to rest."

She also mentioned experiencing these symptoms recently. Seo Jeong-hee said, "I was driving home when the symptoms began. My vision suddenly started blurring. My field of view gradually disappeared, and I felt nauseous. Cold sweat poured from my entire body. My hands lost their strength." She added, "About five minutes later, I regained consciousness. My whole body was soaked in sweat, and the vomiting that had been rising just moments before had gradually stopped."

Seo Jeong-hee shared that she learned about singer Lee Sang-soon, who experienced similar symptoms. She remarked, "This is a different story from breast cancer," adding, "It was frustrating to know something was wrong with my body but unable to identify what it was. More distressing than the pain itself was not knowing what was happening."

She further stated, "Now that I have learned the language of my own body after 50 years, I will try to understand it first. Today, as always, I am living a day carefully alongside my body."

Recently, Lee Sang-soon has missed eight consecutive days of live radio broadcasts after receiving hospital treatment for a sudden decline in condition. Regarding this, her agency Antenna stated on the 6th that she is resting based on medical advice citing autonomic nervous system dysfunction and the need for rest, and future schedules will be adjusted according to her recovery status.

Meanwhile, Seo Jeong-hee married the late broadcaster Seo Se-won in 1982 and had one son and one daughter. Her eldest daughter, Seo Dong-ju, is currently active as an American lawyer, broadcaster, and author.

Seo Jeong-hee's marriage ended after 32 years when allegations of domestic violence by the late Seo Se-won were revealed in 2014. Currently, Seo Jeong-hee is in a public relationship with architect Kim Taehyun, who is six years her junior. Seo Jeong-hee was also diagnosed with stage 2 breast cancer and underwent treatment in 2022.
