English instructor Cho Jeong-sik was moved to tears upon learning that his eldest son, who had suffered from arrhythmia, has completed treatment.

On the 9th, Cho shared on his social media: "'He is healthy. You no longer need to make medical appointments.' I cried for a long time in an empty restroom."

He explained, "My eldest child had arrhythmia. His heart rate was irregular even before he was born. Immediately after birth, he was lying in the neonatal intensive care unit." He added, "I signed a document stating that my child, who was less than 24 hours old, needed to be put to sleep. Overwhelmed by the helplessness of feeling I could do nothing, I struggled."

He continued, "When we were told at 24 months old that he could stop taking medication, I felt endless joy. Still, the annual electrocardiogram tests were painful. 'I showed him the movie "Iron Man" to explain the special nature of the test to him. Those moments brought tears to both my wife and me every time.'"

He expressed his emotion: "'They said it's okay to stop medication. They said checking once a year would be fine. They said an exercise stress test wouldn't be necessary. And today, I heard that we no longer need to schedule any more medical appointments.'"

Cho Jeong-sik added, "To you who endured that time with me, you are a hero. To you who have lived each day healthily, you are a miracle. In February 2016, in the classroom where I asked everyone to pray for my child's health, all of you who cried for me created this gratitude. Today, my wife and I received the greatest blessing since our marriage."

Meanwhile, Cho Jeong-sik is an English instructor affiliated with Megastudy Education and has become well-known through appearances on variety shows such as Channel A's "Please Give Me Grades, Teachers."
