## Transcript

Recently, I've been reading a lot of your comments. So I thought I should talk about them before moving on. when I read the comments, and even when I meet our Gajoku,
"Bokyem-hyung, it's been three months since you uploaded a video." Since I returned last year, I've just been giving everything to you all, "You know this hyung guy is just giving everything away like he's about to leave."
Please try to take good care of yourself, hyung. Stuff like that. I've been in the online streaming field for about 13 or 14 years. While that was happening, who do you think helped me?
our viewers and Gajoku who helped me when I was having a hard time. that as long as I can make a decent living and I can keep the channel running,
That was the mindset I came back with. But ever since I came back, you've been giving me so much support. This year, there was the Porsche and Lamborghini giveaway.
so I helped the firefighters and the people in need. And what's more, I also helped out victims, So of course, my budget's screwed.
It's been over three months since I uploaded the last one. See, I was posting about two Shorts a week, I haven't posted a long video in three months.
Basically, I was afraid I wouldn't be able to do bigger things compared to last year. And I couldn't upload long videos, so I only posted Shorts. I'm just being honest, and that's why wanted to tell you this.
they say, "Bokyem-hyung, you've given away so much, But this was part of what I committed to. Even when I check email, I see people saying they're struggling.
You know, as a person, I simply can't ignore something like that. there are actually so many cases where I help outside of YouTube videos. and they ask me for help.
And that is the reason why the long videos have been delayed for three months. I wanted to explain that before moving on. "Your varicose veins look so bad."
Well then, please allow me to explain. the pressure that I can't do as much this year compared to last year, As a result, I naturally ended up eating less.
So, I lost a lot of weight, but I'm healthy! I'm healthy for sure. I'll show you a better side, so please don't worry too much. there were lots of comments about it, even as far back as 2017.
but I haven't gotten it properly checked. but it wasn't as noticeable then. that's probably why the varicose veins showed more back then,
And I just wanted to clear that up. Anyway, there's just one more thing that I would like to say here. It's quite difficult for me to even talk about this.
But more than anything else at the moment, I felt this was the most urgent. So I went to the hospital.
It's so nice to meet you. So let's continue. After I got your message, would you care to explain your current condition to our viewers?
while raising my children. I struggled through life working while raising my kids. But last year, I felt bad and went to the hospital.
and the doctor said it had spread. Yes. 12cm on both ovaries, 5cm extending to the rectum.
So the lower part is all... That's right, everything here is cancerous now. Originally, I was told I had about three left months to live.
"Let's do a little more chemo, okay? Try to live a week more at a time." They're all cheering me up, So, when you say three months, you mean...
You're referring to the hospital's prognosis? Actually, for me... Because you got married early.
technically, I should call you "ma'am", but your daughters' age is right in the middle of the age range of my viewers. but before today, I've only ever read your email,
But now, you feel like a longtime friend, so my heart aches. -One, two, three, four. -One, two, three, four. So the cancer spread throughout the small intestine area.
So, you're saying that you emailed me because you watched BokyemTV? Which episode were you watching which made you decide to reach out? 'Cause that person also looked really young.
Right. I'm also a very young cancer patient. wearing this beanie, everyone stares at me. "What did she do to get a disease like that?"
I also wanna be prepared for the end. No, no, look, I'm gonna call you "noona" from now on, not "ma'am." So, please don't feel too downhearted. That's not gonna help.
-but still... -That's right. Because seeing you smile is kinda like, "This is it, this is it, you guys! This is Bokyem, baby!"
Gajoku Jaeseok was also 24 years old. But that friend was declared cured of stage 4 cancer by some miracle, That being said, you're in your early-to-mid 40s right now.
I'm sure that you had dreams when you were young. And, in a way, you were adopted. That's right.
-help raise them as well. -That's right, yes, that's right. You need to achieve that dream, so honestly, And that reason is to give you hope.
And when I asked him, "What's your wish?" What is my wish? Well, my wish is that I get to live, that's really it.
And that's what happened, so is part of Bokyem's duty. You said you wanted to go on one last trip.
If my body allows it, But then, none of us have passports. But if I'm okay, I'd love to take even a domestic trip with my kids.
Okay. You called it a "last trip," and that sounds pretty dark, so let's do this, instead of calling it a "last trip", let's call it a "new start trip."
is because the hospital gave bad news, not to mention financial reasons. Please take this to pay for your hospital bills.
Just give me a smile and use this money to pay for your bills. So, do we have a deal? Good answer.
But looking at you right now, I see that it's obviously a hard situation. But the reason I came here is to bring you some smiles and a little hope. So, please don't despair.
You got that right, it's been a very long time. Just forget the thought that you have "3 months left." No, you're the one I have to thank.
I'm definitely going to keep you posted. A lot of people will be rooting for you. 'Cause getting good rest is how you start.
Now let me give you just one more hug. I'm really grateful. Thank you very much.
which has now spread to about five places. I remember when I got her email, It was almost like she had already given up.
Fortunately, I saw that email immediately. So I feel like I gave a little hope, Not for 3 months, or 3 years, but much longer.
Jaeseok had Stage 4 colon cancer at 24. He's now working and living well. So everything worked out. So, noona told me that she originally worked as a nurse.
I hope she can return to society, and help care for others as a nurse again. As I've said earlier, the reason the videos were delayed is... because I've been helping people like Ajin-noona, even outside the videos.
I can't help everyone, but as I try to help, I think I'm gonna need to try harder. so I can become a Bokyem who helps even more people.
But please, don't worry, I'll be back soon with the next video. Stay tuned. I'll see you then, adios!
