[SBS연예뉴스 | 강선애 기자] Singer and actor Seolhyun revealed a unique story that was commissioned as an ambassador for the Korean Liver Cancer Society.
On the 31st of last month, Seolhyun attended the appointment ceremony of the Korean Liver Cancer Society, and received a letter of appointment and a plaque from the Korean Liver Cancer Society President Park Young-nyeon. Seolhyun, appointed as a public relations ambassador, is a public relations ambassador for the Korean Liver Cancer Association for two years starting from January 2021, and conducts various activities to raise public awareness about liver cancer.
The Korean Society of Liver Cancer was established to provide correct information on liver cancer to the public and patients, and to present standardized guidelines for liver cancer diagnosis and treatment. Seolhyun will be selected as the public relations ambassador and will make it easier for the public and patients to access information about liver cancer.
On the 2nd, Seolhyun shared his unique story of accepting the Korean Liver Cancer Society’s ambassador proposal through his SNS.
Seolhyun explained, “A few years ago, my maternal grandmother, who raised me since I was a child, was diagnosed with liver cancer.” “Fortunately, it was discovered in the early stage and treated well, and now it has been cured for 5 years.”
Seolhyun, who was usually interested in liver cancer because her family was diagnosed, said, “The doctor who treated my grandmother suggested the public relations ambassador of the Korean Liver Cancer Society.” I thought it would be, so I became a public relations ambassador for the Korean Liver Cancer Society.”
In addition, Seolhyun added, “If you detect liver cancer early, it is possible to cure it, but it is difficult to detect it because there are no early symptoms. Therefore, early diagnosis is important for liver cancer,” he added. .
