Yena Choi confesses to being paralyzed from the waist down

Singer Choi Yena confessed the story of overcoming paralysis from the waist down in the past.

Today, Wednesday night, the 12th, MBC's 'Radio Star' (planned by Kang Young-seon/directed by Kim Myeong-yeop and Hwang Yun-sang) will feature a special episode of 'Which Star Are You From?' featuring Choi Kang-hee, Lee Sang-yeop, Choi Hyun-woo, Orbit and Choi Y-na.

Former IZ*ONE singer Choi Yena will appear on ‘Las’ for the first time. He expressed his feelings about appearing on the show, saying, “I watched the episode where Bibi appeared, and when I saw (Kwon) Eunbi, (Jang) Wonyoung, and (Ahn) Yujin appear, I thought, ‘When will I be able to appear on ‘Las’?’ and I am grateful.”

Choi Yena said that she got her nickname because of her unique stage costume and revealed a costume that imitated an animation character, and Kim Gura made people laugh by saying, “I feel like a female KCM.” Choi Yena, a third-generation idol in her 7th year of debut, said that she was studying the challenge culture that did not exist when she was active as IZ*ONE, and she made people burst into laughter with a two-shot of her performing the 'Maratanghulu' challenge with Kim Gura.

In addition, Choi Yena also revealed an anecdote that gave a glimpse into Jang Won-young's 'original thinking', which has been consistent since her IZ*ONE days, and science communicator Orbit, who appeared with her, raised expectations by saying, "The origin of Wonyoung's thinking is scientific thinking." It's leaning.

Meanwhile, Choi Yena drew attention by revealing the story of being told by a doctor that she might not be able to walk after having an accident while skiing when she was young. It is said that everyone was amazed by Choi Yena's miraculous story of overcoming paralysis from the waist down, succeeding as a singer, and gifting a house to her parents.
