Sunwoo Yong-yeo and Jeon Won-joo shed tears as they recalled their trip to Japan with the late Yeo Woon-gye.

On the 18th, a video titled 「Sunwoo Yong-yeo」 was uploaded on the YouTube channel 'Sunwoo Yong-yeo', titled 「Sunwoo Yong-yeo's chaotic trip to Japan」, which almost took her to the embassy with her close friend Jeon Won-joo. In the video, Sunwoo Yong-yeo and Jeon Won-ju had a meaningful time reflecting on the memories of their trip to Japan with their best friend Yeo Woon-gye 20 years ago.

Sunwoo Yong-yeo first took the plane in 1970 at Incheon Airport and went to the U.S. with Jeon Won-ju in 1971 to play," he recalled the beginning of his journey. "20 years ago, Yeo Woon-gye and the three of us came at the invitation of the Japanese Cultural Center. I'm happy and heartbroken to think that I'm going there again. No one knows who will come alone next. You have to do well when you're there"I missed the deceased.




They arrived at the hot spring ryokan in Yonago, Japan, and recalled their old memories.

Sunwoo Yong-yeo looked around saying "It looks familiar here" and added a welcome to the hotel by taking out a photo taken when the three actors visited together 20 years ago. Some of the characters in the picture were still working at the hotel, followed by a moving scene of greeting in person.

Jeon Won-joo, who saw the picture, cried, saying, "How is this picture still here?" and Sunwoo Yong-yeo also appeared to cry, shouting "Remember You". The overwhelming emotions of the two moved the hearts of the viewers.




Meanwhile, Yeo Woon-gye, who was born in 1940, graduated from Korea University's Department of Korean Language and Literature, started acting on the theater stage, and debuted as a KBS talent in 1962. He died of lung cancer on May 22, 2009 after impressive performances in the musical "Dae Jang Geum", "My Name Is Kim Sam Soon", and "Hello Francesca". He was 69.
