On the YouTube channel 'Channel Fifteen Night' live broadcast "It's been more than 10 years since I've had a relationship with Mr. Lee Soon-jae. I moved to tvN and the first one I made was "Grandpas Over Flowers"Since then, we have been together until the last 2018. Even after the broadcast was over, the elderly visited the theater stage a lot and ate, but after hearing the news, there was no situation."
He "I have to pay my respects after this, but I haven't seen him yet. There was something the teacher always said. 'I don't want to come off the stage until the day I'm able to.' The words suddenly struck me, and I was grateful that I was working today, and I thought I should work as hard as I could. I thought that was the way we could pay condolences left behind. I'll do a live performance and pay tribute" he said.
The PD in the United States also contacted us. He said that he will greet the other PDs, the 'Grandpas of Flowers' team, and Lee Seo-jin hyung together.

Then "My wife was worried a lot because she didn't eat well. I heard it was early this year that your condition got worse"I couldn't hide my sorrow.
In particular, Park Sul-nyeo showed a special relationship by taking care of the bereaved family's mourning and the deceased's funeral.
