Park Seo Jin tears well, my maternal grandmother with dementia, I'm the only one who remembers



In the MBN reality music show Unforgettable Duet, Park Seo-jin recalls his maternal grandmother who died of dementia and sobbed wildly.

MBN Unforgettable Duet, which airs at 10:20 p.m. today (19th), is a reality music show depicting a moving duet stage between a performer who loses his memory due to dementia and those who remember him. Last year, he won the Silver Prize at the 「Content Asia Awards 2025」, receiving enthusiastic reviews only for one episode of Chuseok, drawing attention as a global empathy plan. Jang Yoon-jung will be the MC, and Cho Hye-ryeon, Son Tae-jin, and Oh My Girl Hyo-jung will be on the panel.

Actor Lee Joo-hwa and an 87-year-old mother suffering from dementia will be on stage in Unforgettable Duet. Lee Ju-hwa is a 32-year-old actor who has been active in realistic acting in plays and broadcast programs 'Vouhou Clinic Love and War' and 'Syndrom'. Lee Ju-hwa catches the eye by taking the stage of 'Unforgettable Duet' with her mother, who was diagnosed with dementia two years ago.




Among them, Park Seo-jin will appear as a "memory singer" and share the moving stage of the two mother and daughter. Park Seo-jin, who was watching her mother lose her memory, carefully tells the story of her grandmother who was suffering from dementia. Park Seo-jin recalled his grandmother who passed away two years ago"You've lost all your memories, but there's only one. I was the only one who remembered. When only I appear on the show, my maternal grandmother shed tears as she recalls her special grandchild's love, saying 'Grandma Park Seo-jin Park Seo-jin'. In particular, Park Seo-jin was looking at the 'Memory Room' arranged by actor Lee Ju-hwa to hold onto her mother's lost memories and "If my grandmother was alive, I would have made 'Memory Room". I remember a lot of things that I couldn't do for you. It is said that he suddenly burst everyone's tear glands by sobbing a storm.

On the other hand, Lee Joo-hwa's mother's reaction to meeting Park Seo-jin for the first time catches the eye. As soon as she sees Park Seo-jin, her mother smiles a big smile and keeps saying "So handsome" and can't take her eyes off. Park Seo-jin bends his knee and sets his mother's eye level, and "You did it"Aha~", "Really?," he said, sweetly clapping his hands, creating warmth. In particular, Park Seo-jin, who sings her mother's life song, raises her thumb and smiles happily. In response, Cho Hye-ryeon admired Park Seo-jin's kindness, saying, `There is a reason why Park Seo-jin is loved.' Even the moment my mother went on stage, she said, `I like him. He fixes his eyes on Park Seo-jin, saying, "He's nice." As a result, expectations are rising vertically for Park Seo-jin, who was reborn as the son of Lee Ju-hwa's mother.

Meanwhile 'Unforgettable Duet' airs tonight on MBN at 10:20 p.m.
