Jang Keun-seok shed tears over his battle with thyroid cancer '6 months behind surgery due to medical chaos, fear is growing'
Actor Jang Geun-seok confessed his fight against thyroid cancer.

On the 25th, Jang Geun-seok posted a video titled 'I'll tell you everything from the diagnosis of thyroid cancer to the disease and so far' on his YouTube channel.

Jang Geun-seok said late that he recently fought thyroid cancer. Jang Keun-seok said, `I wanted to tell you in depth how I've been diagnosed with thyroid cancer and how I've overcome it"Since I was 28 years old, I have had a medical examination once a year." Something is off when I had a medical check-up last October. I want you to do some blood work And let's do a biopsy. After doing this step by step, I was diagnosed with thyroid cancer. The first time I heard it 'Am I going to die?' This is what happened when I was first diagnosed with cancer.

Jang Geun-seok, who said he had no family history, said it was difficult to accept this. Jang Keun-seok "I found out in October that there was a medical crisis at that time. I couldn't get the surgery right away, and it's still not easy to get the surgery, but since then, I booked and waited in advance, and I was told that I could get the surgery right away a month ago, 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 showed tears of emotion during the story. Jang Geun-seok, who completed the six-hour operation, said "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, `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 I'm able to be reborn as a positive person because I've changed a lot about my future path," he said.
