Comedian Lee Hong-ryul revealed that he once received a suspected diagnosis of prostate cancer and underwent a biopsy.

On the 6th, YouTube channel 'Lee Hong-ryul TV' featured footage of Lee meeting with Park Mi-sun and Lee Sung-mi.

That day, Lee Hong-ryul disclosed that he had previously been suspected of having prostate cancer and even underwent a biopsy. He recalled experiencing significant pain during the examination process at the time.

Lee Hong-ryul described the prostate biopsy as "a test you really shouldn't have to undergo" while explaining the situation. The procedure was performed without general anesthesia, using a needle to extract tissue, and bleeding occurred during the process, he stated.

He said, "Flesh was torn out and blood flowed. Gauze had to be continuously inserted to stop the bleeding." He added, "Even when it had to be removed around half a day later before discharge, the pain was severe" while recalling the situation at the time.

Compared to his past experience with rhinitis surgery, he emphasized that this was "ten times more painful."

Fortunately, the test results showed no prostate cancer. Lee Hong-ryul explained, "After testing, culturing, and examining, it was determined to be chronic inflammation."

Meanwhile, Lee Hong-ryul was born in 1954, making him 73 years old by Korean age.
