Park Wi also appeared on MBC's 'Radio Star' and mentioned Song Ji-eun, saying, "I fall in love with her every day. When I asked her, 'Isn't it inconvenient for me to be in a wheelchair?', I said that I actually like it because if I just follow the path my brother takes, I only end up with a very easy path." He said, “It’s touching.”

Park Wi suffered a fall accident in 2014, fractured her cervical vertebrae, and was diagnosed as completely paralyzed. She devoted herself to rehabilitation and currently lives in a wheelchair. We established Weracle Factory in 2019 and are running a YouTube channel named ‘Weracle’.
