On April 14, Seo posted a video titled “How Seo Dong-ju Heals Grief Through Drawing” on her YouTube channel, “Seo Dong-ju’s Tto.Do.Dong.”
In the video, Seo said it had been four days since she underwent a curettage procedure and that she was doing well.
“After a few days, I feel a lot better,” she said, adding that she cried less than she expected and has been improving as each day passes.
Seo said she is now in a stable condition. “After going through it, it wasn’t a big deal,” she said. “If anyone is in a similar situation, I hope you don’t worry too much. With time, you can endure it, and you’ll be OK.”
She said she did not want to spend too long crying or holding on to negative energy. Seo said she had spent the past two months eating well and trying to keep positive thoughts, and she did not want that effort to go to waste.
With her next cycle approaching, Seo said she worried that sinking into sadness could harm both her physical and mental health. “So I tried, no matter what, to keep myself enjoying life,” she said, adding that she has been trying to eat even healthier, take walks and get plenty of rest.
Her husband said Seo is “mentally very strong,” and that watching her get through it gave him strength. He added that the period had been harder for him than for her.
Seo, the daughter of late comedian Seo Se-won and broadcaster Seo Jeong-hee, married a Korean American man in 2010 and divorced in 2014. She remarried in June last year to a non-celebrity man four years younger than her.
