In the video released on this day, Lee Gyeong-gyu began by saying, “I will tell you the story of my life so far, where I actually died and came back to life.” It was 7 years ago, when I went to a bear eel restaurant with my junior actor Han Cheol-woo.

Lee Gyeong-gyu said, "The moment I took a bite of the eel with my chopsticks, I fainted. I remember it vividly. I fell down from where I was sitting and hit my head on the floor so hard that I heard a 'pop' sound."

He added, "I was in a dazed state when someone came running to me. Luckily, an oriental medicine doctor was at the bear's house. He took my pulse and told me to quickly call 119. While I was on the phone, my stomach hurt, so I went to the bathroom and saw black stool." .

Meanwhile, Lee Gyeong-gyu explained, "When blood bursts in the stomach, the stomach digests it. So when the stool comes out, it comes out as black stool. I had a lot of bleeding in the stomach."

He was taken to the hospital by ambulance and said that he underwent a gastric ulcer test the next day and received a blood transfusion, saying, "The normal hemoglobin level is 14 to 15, but mine was down to 6 or 7. It was a moment of crisis that could have cost me my life."

Lee Gyeong-gyu said, “If I hadn’t gone to eat eel that day, I would have ended up living on the street. There was no one at home that day. “If you fall asleep in the bathroom, you can sleep there,” he said.
