Jang Geun-seok, who recently confessed to fighting thyroid cancer, said, `I wanted to tell you in-depth how I've been diagnosed with thyroid cancer and how I've overcome it," he said, cautiously.



He then said "How I learned about thyroid cancer was that I had a medical checkup once a year since I was 28 years old. When I had a medical check-up in October last year 'Something's not right. I'd like to do some blood tests. Let's do a biopsy' After doing this step-by-step examination, I was finally diagnosed with thyroid cancer. Honestly, when I first heard it, I thought, 'Am I going to die?' It was like this. I don't know how I'm going to explain it, but I think a lot of my patients would have."

Jang Geun-seok, who said he had no family history, said "I found out in October last year, and there was a medical crisis at that time. I couldn't do the surgery right away. Even now, it is not easy to schedule surgery, but since then, I booked and waited in advance, and I did it at the end of May, but I was told that I could have surgery right before the end of April, so I organized all the schedules that were scheduled from the end of April to the end of the year, and was hospitalized" he said.



Jang Geun-seok said of how he felt at the time, `We are always a job where we have to be in front of someone and show ourselves in front of the camera. So I thought it would be a little difficult to try to be okay, but when I thought it was mine, I thought, `You can just wait for this and take it off,' and I didn't want to talk to the neighborhood when I sang in front of the audience and did something in front of the camera. I just wanted to live a healthy life with the thought that 'this will pass by as well. I've never said or thought to people 'Don't stress me out because I'm sick. Only the family knew before the surgery."

Jang Geun, who showed tears during the story, "It doesn't hurt anymore. It's the first time I've been hospitalized since I was born," he said, recalling the time of the surgery.



He "I went into surgery at 8 a.m., and I was a little excited before I went in. I got a lot of courage and hopeful messages that I think I'll be born again"It feels different when you enter the operating room. It's very cold, and there's no guardian, and if you look next to it, all the other patients are lying in bed. Each of us went into the operating room and waited, and we opened our eyes and it was all over. 'I did it. It's over' As I thought about it, it was a very fleeting moment for me, but it took six hours."

Jang Keun-seok also said of his current condition "Now he is completely cured. But it takes a long time to hear the results. I had to do the blood test again 3 months ago and check the condition to see if there was any metastasis, but I was a dot-sized cell. It's not like you have to reveal everything big, so the doctor's surgery went well after it was over. I said it went well without anything going wrong."

Jang Keun-seok said about the most difficult thing during his illness, `I looked out and thought that I wanted to go back. It might be a grunt because it's only 10 days, but as I looked outside, I felt that the world I was in was very wide. So I realized that I could live a variety of activities while watching travel YouTube. "When I thought about what I wanted to do the most if I went out now, that was travel. So I made a plan for the trip before I was discharged from the hospital..."

Jang Keun-seok said, `When people think of thyroid cancer, some people say it's good cancer or mild cancer, but it may be right or wrong. For the person concerned, the fear of the word cancer is considerable. I can't accept it. I have many doubts, but I have to accept it in the end and I think the first thing is to feel sorry for my body and listen to what my body wants" he said.

"I've looked back on my life a lot, and I think there's a lot of change in my future path, and it's not negative in the end, and I think it's an opportunity to be reborn as a positive person." Bad things happen until something really good happens when people are lucky." I think that's the same thing as my patients right now. Please think that it's only so bad right now because there will be so many good things. I hope that good things will come to you now as well."
