Actress Kim Ye-ryeong has been diagnosed with thyroid cancer after undergoing tumor removal surgery.
In an episode of TV Chosun's 'Perfect Life' airing on the 28th, actress Kim Ye-ryeong will share her recent status following a series of surgeries and her battle with cancer.
Kim Ye-ryeong confessed that she has undergone three major surgeries in the past three years. After being diagnosed with thyroid cancer following tumor removal surgery, Kim expressed her anxiety, saying, "I worry whether some kind of tumor might develop this year."
When MC Hyun Young asked about early warning signs of cancer, Kim Ye-ryeong revealed that she had not noticed anything unusual in her body, stating, "During filming for a project, I became irritable and couldn't sleep, so I just thought it was nothing serious since I would be tired."
In the episode, Kim Ye-ryeong's daughter visits her home, having carefully prepared side dishes her mother likes and meals to restore her vitality. As her daughter tried to put the food in the refrigerator, she noted that "the inside of the fridge is completely empty" and immediately began a thorough check. When soy sauce with an expiration date nearly one year past was found, Kim Ye-ryeong reportedly confidently replied, "Soy sauce is a fermented food, so it's fine."
The touching behind-the-scenes story of Kim Ye-ryeong's 60th birthday celebration this year will also be revealed. Kim stated, "When I got home, my daughter had prepared a surprise 60th birthday party for me." When comedian Lee Sung-mi said, "It must have made you cry," Kim Ye-ryeong expressed her happiness by saying, "I was so grateful and moved," adding that her elementary school-aged grandchildren had saved up their pocket money little by little to gift her cosmetics.
Meanwhile, a glimpse into Kim Ye-ryeong's daily life will be revealed on 'Perfect Life' on the 28th.
