[talk] Kim Woo-bin: “If it’s short, you’ll only live for 6 months”… How dangerous is nasopharyngeal cancer?

Actor Kim Woo-bin shared his feelings while battling nasopharyngeal cancer.

Recently, Kim Woo-bin appeared as a guest on the YouTube channel 'Salty Brother Shin Dong-yup'. Kim Woo-bin was diagnosed with nasopharyngeal cancer in 2017 and was declared cured in 2019.

Kim Woo-bin recalled his battle with cancer and said, “I’m a very positive person, and I’m the type of person who finds the good in any situation.”

He continued, "It was like in a drama, when the hospital suddenly told me, 'You'll have six months at the shortest,' and I was so shocked, scared, and wished it was a dream. It was a situation like that." He continued, "Despite that, I never once thought, 'What if I can't overcome this?'"

How difficult would it have been to say something like that?

I'm glad you held on well and got better after receiving good treatment.
