Even when my sister narrowly survived the brink of death and was still unconscious, you came multiple times to talk to her and take care of her, giving her strength. You showed love and friendship to my sister, even without our family knowing, and we heard about it through the nurses.”
He continued, “You showed true friendship by being with my sister until her last moment, holding my mother’s hand tightly, hugging her, and comforting her. I am just so grateful. I didn’t have the presence of mind to properly thank you then, so I bow my head in deep gratitude once again.”
He added, “I was going about my daily life and happened to see the article. It gives my mother and me great strength. Thank you for not forgetting my sister, even in your joyful moment of winning the award. And congratulations on your award,” tagging Yeom Hye Ran in his message.
