Gwangbok, the pet dog of comedian Park Sung-kwang, who had been going through a difficult time due to worsening heart disease and pleural effusion, has completed major surgery and been discharged from the hospital.

On the 30th, Park Sung-kwang shared a video on his Instagram, writing, "Our Gwangbok has finally returned home." He added, "Our Gwangbok endured major surgery with such a small body and held on bravely for a long time. I can’t express how grateful I am to be able to hold him in my arms again."

The video shows Gwangbok wagging his tail and running into Park Sung-kwang’s arms after completing treatment at the hospital. Park Sung-kwang stated, "There is no more blood backflow, and his heart rate is stable," adding, "He still needs to recover and rest at home for a while, but today, just knowing that Gwangbok is by our side fills my heart with emotion."

Park Sung-kwang also expressed gratitude to the medical staff who cared for Gwangbok, saying, "Every time we were anxious, they explained things warmly and considered our feelings, worrying alongside us." He continued, "Thanks to their care for not only Gwangbok but also our family’s hearts, we were able to endure this difficult time. We will never forget that warm heart."

Park Sung-kwang further added, "I am truly grateful to everyone who prayed for and supported Gwangbok," noting, "It seems that the love you sent reached Gwangbok, allowing him to hold on step by step like this." He told Gwangbok, "You worked so hard. Now rest slowly at home and recover little by little by our side."

Gwangbok previously appeared alongside Park Sung-kwang on the MBC variety show "Omniscient Interfering View," winning the love of viewers. At the time, Gwangbok was so popular that he shot more than four commercials with Park Sung-kwang.

Gwangbok has now turned 12 and is considered a senior dog. Recently, Park Sung-kwang’s wife, Lee Sol-i, shared news that Gwangbok’s heart disease had worsened, leading to an emergency room visit for pleural effusion treatment involving fluid drainage, which added to the sadness.

Ultimately, Gwangbok underwent surgery. On the 19th, Park Sung-kwang posted on Instagram, "Our Gwangbok, who had always shared his heart with children more in pain and facing difficulties than himself, is now very sick." He explained, "Given his age of over ten years, we agonized a lot before deciding on surgery. Due to the heart disease, walks, baths, and grooming were all prohibited. A dog that loves people could not freely welcome those who came to see him, and he has been living while taking six different medications every day. His kidneys are also gradually getting worse."

After the surgery, his wife Lee Sol-i shared news on her Instagram, stating, "They say Gwangbok completed his surgery well and is recovering." She added, "He is so amazing. Thank you all."

Meanwhile, Park Sung-kwang married Lee Sol-i in 2020. The couple previously revealed their daily life as a married pair by appearing on the SBS variety show "Same Bed Different Dreams 2 - You Are My Destiny."
