Former announcer Baik Ji-yeon recalled the words of actress Kim Hye-ja, who had bid farewell to the late Choi Bul-am.

On the 9th, Baik Ji-yeon uploaded a video titled “I thought I was the only one feeling this way, but it was a concern that was hard to even put into words” on her YouTube channel ‘Jigeum Baik Ji-yeon’ (Now Baik Ji-yeon).

On that day, Baik Ji-yeon mentioned actress Kim Hye-ja, who had visited the wake of the late Choi Bul-am, who passed away last month.

Baik Ji-yeon said, “Mr. Choi Bul-am passed away a while ago. The words spoken by Ms. Kim Hye-ja when she paid her respects are etched in my memory.”

She revealed, “(Kim Hye-ja) looked at the path Mr. Choi Bul-am had taken before him and then said, ‘Please don’t call it the last time.’ She was deeply heartbroken. Seeing her expression made my own heart ache terribly.”

She continued, “Don’t we reflect on many things when we witness such moments? Inevitably, life is filled with worries, happiness, and pain. It is the fate of being human.”

She added, “Everyone is engulfed in their own concerns. I hope we live by encouraging one another with compassion.”

Alongside this, the production team of Baik Ji-yeon’s YouTube channel inserted a caption reading, “We will cherish for a long time the warm memories you left us while sharing an era together. We pray for the late Mr. Choi Bul-am’s peaceful rest,” mourning the deceased.

The late Choi Bul-am passed away on the 29th of last month at a hospital in Gwanggyo-gu, Seoul, while receiving inpatient treatment. He was 87 years old at the time of his death. At the time, Kim Hye-ja, who had visited the wake to pay her respects, met with reporters and said, “Do not say it is the last time. I do not think this is the end. When we die, we can meet again,” leaving those present with a heavy heart.
