Hong Kong's South China Morning Post (SCMP) reported on the 25th (local time) the story of Tung Shu Yao, a 27-year-old woman from Liaoning Province, China.
Tung Shu Yao, a former model and makeup artist, was seriously injured in a gas explosion at home on the night of March 31. As soon as his father lit a cigarette, the gas leaking into the house exploded, destroying the house and seriously injuring the entire family.
Tungsiao suffered second-degree burns on 14% of his body, and his parents were seriously injured, with second-degree to third-degree burns spanning more than 70% of his skin, forcing him to be admitted to intensive care.
Five months after the accident, Tungsiao is gradually recovering and his parents are also over the crisis of life. But the accident completely changed his life.
Originally a beauty blogger who was producing makeup content, Tungsiao is now raising awareness among people by producing content on the theme of family recovery process and fire safety.
It is difficult to work as a makeup artist for the time being due to burns on his hands, but his activities as an influencer are a great psychological and economic boost for him and his family.
Tungsiao said he has spent about 1 million yuan (about 200 million won) on his family's treatment so far, confessing that his savings have already run out and he even owes his relatives and friends.
Since the accident, his SNS followers have soared to 190,000 now, more than 170,000 of whom have newly followed since the accident. Many netizens are supporting him by sending him messages of donation and support.
Tung Shu Yao recently promoted fire safety-related products such as fire extinguishers and said he wanted to let more people know the importance of fire prevention. He also complained of unfairness, saying, "'Just a month before the accident, my father replaced the fuel tank, but the seller avoided responsibility, and the local government is not even getting compensation because it has not released a final investigation report.'
Tung Shu Yao takes care of her parents every day and always tries to show a bright face in front of her parents. He said he has also prepared the best rehabilitation equipment for his parents' recovery.
"I used to think I was just a kid. But after this accident, I feel like an adult overnightHis words touched the hearts of many.
Local netizens who heard the story said "Burning is one of the most painful injuries. I hope you overcome it well", "It is true courage to not lose positivity and toughness even in the midst of misfortune."
