'I was the only one who remembered.' Park Seo-jin of 'Unforgettable Duet' sobbed as she remembered her grandmother who died of dementia



Actor Park Seo-jin finally sobbed behind the stage, recalling his maternal grandmother who died of dementia.

In MBN Unforgettable Duet, which will be broadcast on the 19th, a deeply resonant stage will be held, with the story of a cast member who loses his memory due to dementia and a family member who has been protecting them. MC Jang Yoon-jung and panelist Cho Hye-ryeon, Son Tae-jin and Oh My Girl Hyo-jung will join.

On this day, actor Lee Ju-hwa will join hands with her 87-year-old mother, who was diagnosed with dementia two years ago. Lee Ju-hwa, a 32-year-old actor who has been active in the movie "The Couple Clinic Love and War" and "Syndrom" and "The Room of Memory" designed to hold onto her mother's lost memories, already moving the studio.




Park Seo-jin, who joined the stage as a 'memory singer', watched the scene and eventually burst into tears. He couldn't stop saying, `I remembered my grandmother who died two years ago.' Then "You lost all your memories, but I was the only one who remembered. When I appeared on the show, he confessed his fond memories, saying, `Only 'grandchild Park Seo-jin' was found.'

In particular, he was looking everywhere in the 'Memory Room' and "If my grandmother were alive, I would have made her like this…" I keep reminiscing about what I couldn't do for you." He suddenly dropped his head and sobbed. It is said that the scene was immediately flooded with tears.

Lee Ju-hwa's mother, who first met Park Seo-jin, smiled and warmed up as soon as she saw him, saying "So handsome". Park Seo-jin made her mother more comfortable with a friendly reaction that matched her eye level, saying "I did so"Aha~". When Park Seo-jin sang her life song, her mother did not stop smiling while raising her thumb.




Cho Hye-ryeon exclaimed, `There is a reason Park Seo-jin is loved.' and her mother said, `I like him right before going on stage. He couldn't take his eyes off, saying, "He's nice." On this day, Park Seo-jin goes beyond simple 'memory singer' to become a real family and fills the stage.

Unforgettable Duet will air at 10:20 p.m. on the 19th.
