Yun Hee-sang, Kasbah's lover, a singer who sang after overcoming general paralysis...Today (19th) 8th anniversary



It's been eight years since Yoon Hee-sang, who was loved a lot for 'Lady of Casba', left.

In 2017, Yoon Hee-sang was taken to a hospital on September 19 due to bleeding in the upper gastrointestinal tract, causing his blood pressure to drop, but he died.

Yun Hee-sang, who debuted in the music industry in 1979 with 'Chilgapsan', made a hit in the late 1990s with 'Kasba's Lover' and continued to release albums such as 'Lost Night' and 'Texas Lumba'.




However, in 2004, Yoon Hee-sang, who was traveling for a local performance, was in a car accident that collided with a truck and was diagnosed with general paralysis.

Yoon Hee-sang, whose spinal cord was damaged in the accident, strengthened his will to live by enduring four surgeries and a year of rehabilitation.

In 2006, he appeared on MBC 'Discovered Song 愛' and MBC 'Feeling Day' in 2006, and he was moved by thanking his wife for silently protecting him despite hard nursing care.




Even during rehabilitation, Yoon Hee-sang still showed his spirit as a musician in the midst of difficulties, releasing an album of gospel songs, saying, `The only thing that can hold onto the will of life is music.'
