‘My Way’ Lee Bong-ju, who suffered an incurable disease, “I will overcome it like a marathon”[SS리뷰]

[스포츠서울 이용수기자] Korean land legend Lee Bong-ju shared his feelings of having an incurable disease.

In TV Chosun’s’Star Documentary My Way’, which aired on the 15th, Lee Bong-ju’s recent situation was conveyed.

Lee Bong-ju, who suffers from’muscular dystonia’ with a bent back, has been undergoing treatment at the hospital for a year since last January. He said, “Since before, I had a slightly crooked posture. So, my son bought me a shoulder brace for my birthday and told me to take care of it. I should have been concerned from that time, but I think I was too proud of my body.” “Slowly (waist) did not get better. Then, at some point, it seems that a problem occurred somewhere in the body due to extreme force. But I can’t find the cause.”

Just a year ago, Lee Bong-ju, who showed vigorously running at JTBC’s’Combined, Cold’, appeared to visit the hospital while relying on his wife, Kim Mi-soon. He got out of the car and walked a short distance, but breathed in a breath. It was no longer a body that ran a marathon during active duty. Lee Bong-ju, “I can breathe even if I walk a little. As I keep trying to straighten my body, I only need strength (the waist is not straightened). I can’t breathe normally.”

Bong-joo Lee’s symptom is a bigger problem because it is’muscular dystonia’ with unknown cause. Because of this, Lee Bong-ju tried to find the cause of the disease for the past year, but he could not know as intended. He said, “When I go with this body all my life, I sometimes think about it and get frustrated. So I was afraid to go outside and there were many times. “Because a young person walks around with his back bent, he feels a lot of atrophy on his own,” he confessed. At the same time, he smiled bitterly, saying, “Why are you giving me this ordeal?”

However, Lee Bong-ju received rehabilitation treatment at an oriental clinic. The oriental medicine doctor said, “I would not be able to endure it if I were a general person.” I closed my eyes and couldn’t breathe, and I felt sorry for myself. But after I did it a few times, I laughed.” “I feel like my body is getting better. It doesn’t mean that the road will show up, but I sleep well and I don’t feel that bad.” He said, “The most difficult time in my life was last year. Even when I was exercising, it wasn’t that hard, but last year I had a hard time. Seeing the improvement at the beginning of the year, I will make my body so that I can run this year.”

Bong-ju Lee said, “When I compare my life to a marathon, it seems to be a 25km point just past the midpoint. From then on, he said, “I think now is the most important moment. I wonder if I will overcome anything if I do it like a marathon by finishing well for the rest of the period so that I can overcome this hurdle wisely. I will endure with that spirit,” he clenched his fists.
