Jang Geun Suk Reflects On Recovering From Thyroid Cancer And How It Changed His Perspective
Actor Jang Geun Suk has shared an update on his life following his battle with thyroid cancer.
On the 5th of September, Jang posted a video on his YouTube channel and talked in more depth about his cancer diagnosis and treatment.
In the video, he mentioned that he recently traveled abroad with actor Ha Seok-jin and interior designer Lim Seong-bin. Reflecting on his experiences, Jang expressed, “After undergoing thyroid cancer surgery, I realized why people travel. This year, I want to try traveling alone.”
Jang Geun Suk had previously revealed his cancer battle, stating, “I was diagnosed with thyroid cancer a year ago.” He added, “It’s been two weeks since the surgery, and I still can’t fully open my mouth.”
He explained that he had not shared the news earlier due to concerns over worrying others but reassured fans, saying, “Fortunately, the surgery went well.” He also mentioned that for over eight days post-surgery, he was unable to move much out of fear. However, now, two weeks later, his recovery is progressing well.
Jang Geun Suk further reflected on the impact of his illness, noting, “After being sick and recovering, I realized there isn’t much time. It’s ironic. I thought there was more time, but now I want to stop worrying and have fun doing what I want. It’s better to do things and regret them than not do them and wonder.”
