Actress Sunwoo Yong-yeo Opens Up About Stroke-Induced Falls and Aftereffects

Actress Sunwoo Yong-yeo has revealed the aftereffects she has been experiencing following a fall caused by a stroke.

On the 8th, the YouTube channel 'Sunpung Sunwoo Yong-yeo' released a video titled 'Sunwoo Yong-yeo's Cheongdam Building Revealed for the First Time in 50 Years with a 1000-Fold Price Increase.' In the video, Sunwoo Yong-yeo visited a hospital and recalled her past experience of fracturing her left leg after a fall due to a stroke.

She shared, "I shouldn't have worn high heels when I had the stroke, but I did and went to Namdaemun, where I fell." She continued, "I couldn't get up by myself, so three men helped me up." She added, "My leg had a fracture, but after a few days, the cast was removed, which became the cause. I was limping day and night due to the pain."

Sunwoo Yong-yeo also mentioned another fall she experienced later. She said, "Three months later, I fell again. I was at a crosswalk and thought, 'I need to run quickly,' but I fell." She added, "Two men helped me up again. At the hospital, they said there was another fracture. I fell three times, all on the left side."

Meanwhile, Sunwoo Yong-yeo was diagnosed with a stroke in 2016 after showing abnormal symptoms during a broadcast shoot.
