'Ask the Buddha' featured a petitioner who shared a string of misfortunes, evoking deep sympathy.

On the 7th, on KBS JOY's 'Ask the Buddha', the petitioner said, "I have a daughter born in 2006. Less than six months after her birth, she was diagnosed with a rare incurable disease. The diagnosis was tuberous sclerosis complex. She suddenly began experiencing seizures and convulsions, symptoms of epilepsy." He then spoke about his daughter's ongoing battle with illness.

He continued, "One day, my daughter called to say my wife had stopped breathing. I rushed over and found she had suffered sudden cardiac arrest of unknown cause. As a result, she was declared brain dead. After three weeks in the intensive care unit, my wife and I ultimately said our final goodbye." He opened up about his sudden loss of his wife.

The petitioner added, "My daughter's seizures worsened due to stress, and I struggled greatly myself. We lived like that for about a year and a half. Then, last year, we moved our bakery to a busy district, and things started improving. I had always had a wound on the back of my right hand, but since early this year, it hurt even when I stayed still. After getting an MRI at a local hospital, they found something unusual. A biopsy revealed it was malignant."

He further explained, "I underwent detailed examinations at a major hospital and was told I have synovial sarcoma. Fortunately, there was no metastasis, but I was warned not to relax, so I had another surgery. I am currently undergoing chemotherapy after having the tumor removed." He poured out his exceptionally difficult life story.

In response, Seo Jang-hoon said, "I wonder why such things happen to me. It might affect my mental state, but that doesn't mean I should give up. Who will take care of my daughter then? For my wife's sake, I must protect my daughter. Think positively and find strength. To recover quickly, you need to seek out positive thoughts. If you habitually look for the good and gather positive energy, I believe you will be fully cured." He offered his advice.

Lee Su-geun also said, "Let's live with a sense of gratitude. Although my wife is gone, it's fortunate that I have my daughter. Even though I have cancer, it's fortunate that there was no metastasis. It's fortunate that the shop is doing well, and it's fortunate that I am here standing on two feet." He encouraged the petitioner with uplifting words.
