MBC 'I Live Alone', which aired on the 10th, depicted Koo Sung-hwan who visited the hospital to receive vitiligo treatment.
On this day, Sung-hwan visited the dermatologist with a face full of worries. He came to the hospital because of vitiligo. (The area) is getting wider."
Earlier, regarding the reason for applying sunscreen white before going out, Sung-hwan Koo said, `I filmed a movie with Ju-seung in Kazakhstan a few years ago, but the vitiligo became too severe afterwards.' `I'm nervous if I don't do that because the hospital tells me to wear a lot of sunscreen.'
Sung Kyu-hwan "I actually apply more when I go out. I've been to the sea this summer, but if I have vitiligo, I don't burn that area, so it looks worse." "People don't know because I cover my makeup to some extent on the show," he said. But if you don't have makeup on, it will gradually stretch around your eyebrows, nose, and mouth. It's not that I don't have eyebrows, but it turns white by bleaching it."
In fact, the bare face of Koo Sung-hwan clearly showed the vitiligo area, and Park Na-rae, who saw it, was worried that "It's quite serious".

After being diagnosed with the skin, Sung-hwan, who entered the consultation room, complained that "Where there is vitiligo becomes too dry." In response, the doctor explained "All the pigment cells are destroyed and turned white because of the immune response." Compared to the one taken in May, the pigment side also applies sunscreen well, so you can see that it is better." However, in UV photographs, it was confirmed that the vitiligo area was noticeably wider than before.
Sung Kyu-hwan "It was too much of a shock. As I gained a lot of weight in three months, my skin spread as much as the fat part." The doctor said " (Vulitosis) is an incurable disease and cannot promise to cure it. It's better to treat it consistently. Cleansing and moisturizing are just as important as applying sunscreen."
Afterwards, Sung-hwan headed to the procedure room of fear. When the procedure of waking up the skin layer with high frequency began before the stem cell procedure to help restore melanin cells, he struggled with the pain that came through anesthesia.
"Honestly, I wonder if I should just live like this (every time I get a procedure). I don't think vitiligo is an incurable disease, but I don't think it's easy to cure"I hope it doesn't show as much as possible. I'm trying to make a good heart, but it's actually more stressful than I think."
