SBS entertainment show 「My Ugly Baby」 aired on the 20th showed Bae Jung-nam visiting an animal hospital with his dog Bell. Earlier this year, Bell was diagnosed with soft tissue sarcoma, a malignant tumor that develops in the skin and tissue, following a biopsy after developing a lump on his side.
Bae Jeong-nam was unable to easily decide whether to operate due to concerns about general anesthesia because he had a history of general paralysis due to neck disc in the past. However, the diagnosis of a high rate of metastasis eventually led him to decide on surgery for local anesthesia.
Bae Jeong-nam "I tried to think slowly, but the transition speed increased. I was worried that it would lead to a major surgery if it was delayed. "I'm an old dog in my 70s who takes heart medicine, and I was very worried about whether I could survive."
On the day of the operation, Bae Jung-nam went into the operating room with the bell in his arms, and nervously watched the progress outside the hospital while the operation lasted for more than an hour. The veterinarian expressed relief, explaining that "the tumor seems to have been completely removed" and Bae Jeong-nam held the bell tightly and said, "Grandma, that's it for the surgery." Let's not get sick anymore. I love you." He expressed his emotional feelings.
