Actress Kim Bo-mi has revealed that she underwent surgery for kidney stones.

On May 21, Kim shared a lengthy post on her social media account, describing her challenging hospital experience.

She recounted, "The pain in my abdomen started on my birthday. I thought it would get better, but after attending my birthday party, I had to rush home. When I woke up the next morning, I felt fine, but by around 2 p.m., the pain returned, and I felt like I was going to lose consciousness, so I called an ambulance."

Kim mentioned that she experienced pain even during the ambulance ride, stating, "Once I arrived at the emergency room, I received three bags of painkillers and finally managed to sleep. The diagnosis was kidney stones. However, due to it being the weekend, I had to find a facility that could perform shockwave treatment, but the stones did not break, leading me to return to the emergency room."

She continued, "Ultimately, I was hospitalized, and it turned out that I had kidney stones not only in my abdomen but also in my kidneys, which shocked everyone. Anyway, the surgery went well, and I was discharged today. I need to rest at home for a while."

Kim added, "They inserted something like a hose into my body, which I will have to remove in a month. I am still in a lot of pain, and there is significant bleeding when I urinate. Kidney stones are terrifying. Everyone, please be careful."

Kim Bo-mi married ballet dancer Yoon Jeon-il in 2020 and has one son and one daughter with him.
